The Rise of “Wolves”
Jay Z Really Likes “Wolves”
Look how into “Wolves” Jay Z is. His face looks perturbed at the very thought of enjoying something, anything as much as this. “Imagine, waiting a year for something this good,” I envision him saying to himself.Diddy and Jay Z approve. #Wolveshttps://t.co/Cb8ZFznrJY

WOLVES.
Kanye Says Drake Inspired “Wolves.” Kanye Says Nothing About “Wolves” Release
Vic Mensa Releases Lyrics of “Wolves”… On A Chalkboard
Not sure if it was Mensa who did this, but the chalkboard lettering on display here is impressive. The cursive at the bottom leaves a lot to be desired, though. Nevertheless, this confirms “Wolves” is definitely on the way. Mike Dean also shares another tweet: “Yeezy Season #All Day #Wolves”. So yeah, confirmed.dope!! pic.twitter.com/wWkT2HqQRa

Kanye Announces The First Title of His New Album ‘So Help Me God’
I’m overcome with excitement at his announcement and the minimalist DONDA design of the cover. But then I flashback to the one whole month I spent watching videos of “New Slaves” before Yeezus came out. I temper my expectations.So Help Me God pic.twitter.com/e3UUsQQEts

Kanye Does a Surprise Intimate Show in London
Ryan Hemsworth Calls "Wolves" Producer Cashmere Cat An Asshole
Producer Ryan Hemsworth is a nice guy. Still, even he isn’t exempt from the tyranny of Cashmere Cat and the showboating of his copy of “Wolves” CDQ. Kanye also performs the song live AGAIN with technical difficulties for Paris’ Fashion Week."Aren't you excited to hear cd quality 'Wolves' bro?" - @CASHMERECAT (asshole)

Kanye Changes The Name of His Album to 'SWISH'
In honour of the album’s new name and creeping paranoia that "Wolves" has been left on the cutting room floor I write a poem called, Can’t Spell SWISH Without WISH. Here’s an excerpt:I’m changing my album name to SWISH
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) May 3, 2015
I wish I wish for the newly titled, SWISH/ I wish, I wish for CDQ of "wolves."
I wish, I wish what if it’s presence on the album is amiss/So Help Me God it's been months what if I have been made a fool.
A Candlelight Vigil for "Wolves"
A month has come and gone without news about “Wolves” CDQ. Cashmere Cat returns online with a picture of a candle from one of the song’s, presumably, legendary studio sessions. I stare at the picture for an hour while reciting the lyrics with the lights off. I cough up blood trying to hit the notes on Sia’s verse.the only pic i have from the session when we made wolves for kanye pic.twitter.com/DzqgxdaIRq

New York Times Has “Wolves?”
IS THIS A SIGN, YE?
U.S. Customs Inquires about "Wolves" CDQ
June has been a busy month for everybody… but me. My now sworn enemy, Cashmere Cat, has reunited with Sinjin Hawke since "Wolves" "came out.” But hope comes over me when Cashmere reports that a customs officer is inquiring about the release of “Wolves.” Maybe he’ll confiscate his hard drive and leak it to a popular hip-hop forum.immigrations officer in U.S. customs just stopped me and asked when wolves is gonna drop (really)

Kanye Visits Lamar Odom In The Hospital, Probably Hears "WOLVES"
Does “Wolves” have healing properties? Is it so good that it nursed the bedridden Lamar Odom back to better health? This is like a phoenix down from Final Fantasy. I consider marathoning seven seasons of Pretty Little Liars until I slip into a coma. Hopefully, this will get Kanye’s attention.Kim telling the story of how Kanye played his album for Lamar Odom at the hospital on Thanksgiving. pic.twitter.com/P1LbeIANhH

Please No "No More Parties in L.A."
A Wild Wolf Appears!
On January 25, at 12:17 PM I receive notification of a new Kanye tweet. I unlock my phone before I’m face to face with a tracklist for the new album. I move closer to the screen. Trying to make sense of the illegible nonsense scribbled on a piece of paper and then I see it. It couldn’t be. I start shaking uncontrollably. I read the word, THAT word aloud but I still don't believe it. I close the app and then turn it back on. Is that what I think it is?I read over the track names from top to bottom: "Famous" “Father Stretch My Hands Pt. I & Pt. II” “Waves” “High Lights,” “30 Hours,” “No More Parties in L.A.,” “Fade,” “FML,” “Real Friends,”… Wol—yes, it says ”Wolves!” I close my eyes trying to keep my emotions in check but I have never been so… ANGRY! What do you mean I have to listen to nine other songs before I can hear “Wolves” in CDQ! How does it go from the first song to last?! ^&*% you, Kanye.So happy to be finished with the best album of all time pic.twitter.com/JBWa8OWvqw

Kanye Announces New, New Title For Album Called 'WAVES'
After a couple hours, I collect myself. It’s finally coming out and WAVES isn’t the worse album name ever. I’m happy about this even though Wiz Khalifa doesn’t seem to be. I’m sure they will resolve their issues like adults, though.#Waves pic.twitter.com/Azig7aNYOu
