He spends the rest of the verse reiterating the duo's recoupling, folding in a few references to songs throughout Kanye's catalog. "Donda, I'm with your baby when I touch back road Told'em stop all of that red cap, we goin' home Not me with all of these sins, casting stones This might be the return of The Throne"
While Kanye does his best Phil Collins, Hov raps in broad strokes, taking a few bars to play to the album's dark-night-of-the-soul themes of redemption and exile, before pricking the ears of exhausted news writers internet-wide: yesterday, the brief verse, well, sorta sounds like it was recorded at 4 p.m. But few verses have ever spoken louder than the benediction delivered by Jay-Z at the close of West's new album Donda, which he premiered at a live listening event in Atlanta's Mercedes Benz Stadium last night (although at press time, the album is still nowhere to be found on streaming services). Kanye West has always spoken through his guest verses, whether it was the Chicago dues-paying of College Dropout's features, Pusha T's thesis statement on "Runaway," or the clout-flexing Malice verse on Jesus Is King.
