'Why does Kanye keep doing this man we fall for it every time,' a disheartened fan tweeted after Kanye West failed to release 'Donda', yet again

Kanye West appears to have disheartened millions of fans worldwide as he did not release 'Donda' on August 5, 2021, as promised before. In true Kanye style, West pulled off a a similar stunt few weeks back as well when he did not drop the album on July 23 despite promising the same. However, this time the hype was even higher as West even started a countdown for the release on Apple Music. West stunned everyone with his performance at Atlanta's Mercedes-Benz Stadium, but the album is yet to be available on any music streaming service. However, it is available for pre-order on Apple Music and will be available on August 9, as per the latest update. Named after his late mother, 'Donda' happens to be West's 10th studio album.

With confirmed features from Jay-Z, Kid Cudi, Travis Scott, Lil Yachty, Don Toliver, Baby Keem, Lil Durk and Playboy Carti among others, 'Donda' is one of West's most awaited albums. Prior to its scheduled release, rapper Juicy J tweeted a bet of $10,000 that West would not be dropping his album tonight. "10k bet Kanye don’t drop his album tonight," he tweeted, followed by another tweet saying, "Am I high again Or did Kanye not drop his album again ?"
