Kanye West's fans began speculating the Donda sequel early

Kanye fans began speculating about a potential Donda sequel at the beginning of the year. Moneybagg was recently photographed in the studio with Kanye, The Game, and Antonio Brown. The photograph was shared by The Game on his Instagram and was captioned: 'D R I L L M A T I C'.

Kanye West was also reunited with Hit-Boy during a studio session. The picture caused uproar on Twitter, and started the initial speculations of a prospective new song.

Kanye West's tenth studio album Donda was released via his label GOOD Music on August 29, 2021. The album was recorded at various locations throughout the summer of 2021. The album welcomed features by big names from the industry like The Weeknd, Sunday Service Choir, Jay Z, Playboi Carti, Da Baby, Vori, and Marilyn Manson.

Donda scored the most first-day streams for an album in 2021 on both Apple Music and Spotify. It became West's 10th consecutive chart-topper on the US Billboard. In the first week, the album amassed 341 million streams and close to 37,000 sales.
