Kanye West Performs New Material At Facebook Headquarters

Jul 28 | by YBF

Just a couple of months ago, everyone was looking for Kanye West and now he’s pretty much everywhere. He stopped by Facebook headquarters yesterday to perform new songs off his upcoming album.

Find out the deets when you read on…

Mr. West stopped by everyone’s favorite social networking site, Facebook, in Palo Alto California, to perform his tracks off his fifth album which is rumored to be titled "Good A** Job."

He hopped on top of a table, in a black suit, and performed four songs acapella including “Mama’s Boyfriend,” “Lost in the World,” “Chain Heavy,” and “Sweat On My Face.

Check out Kanyeezy in action:

He writes a thank you note to his fans and Facebook via his blog:

To all my friends at Facebook,

Many times in life I’ve had to deal with moments of doubt. And as it’s been a minute since I’ve performed any fresh material in front of an audience, this could’ve been one of those moments… but it wasn’t. Your energy was a gift so electric, so genuine, that it really helped me give my best. The energy was so inspiring I had to keep going!

I just hope you got as much from me as I got from you…which was everything!

Love to all my fans, especially at Facebook.

Kanye West

The album is scheduled for release in September and will feature verses from Rick Ross and T.I. as well as production from DJ Premier and Q Tip.

Nice little tease for all you Kanye fans.

Well, when you're mother dies

Well, when you're mother dies so suddenly and you're forced to grieve...you tend to fall apart and that's what happen to Ye. He's not "ignorant" nor does his display "ignorance" everyone goes through things in their lives and sometimes it's seen in our actions and not always in the best way. He has taken some seriously needed time away from the spotlight to deal with what was weighing on his heart. I'm amazed at how these white politicians can sell our ass up a river on a slave ship but this man loses his mother, has an outburst or a few (lol) and he's just another "ignorant black dude with money". Just WOW! I stopped short with the "N" word even though I know that's how a lot of you feel. Just another "N" with money....smh

Also my blood boilssssss when

Also my blood boilssssss when people use the term"ignorant" incorrectly. All it does is showcase their ignorance. Smh How is Kanye West ignorant?? I'm sure he knew the consequences of the things he did/said in the past before he did them, he simply just didn't care. I love men who have courage & pride. Black men have been buckling down tooooo long to White men/America in since slavery, I thought that kinda stopped with the Malcolm X/Black Panther era. I guess not...& lets be real the only people who have REALLY been offended by Kanye West is White America & dumb Blacks..So is Kanye suppose to bite his toungue so "Massa" won't be offended?? GTFOH!

You need to step outside of your glorified fantasy world and realize being an adult has nothing to do with massa, selling out, or screaming the n-word in front of a bunch of white women for publicity.

that's a damn lie! Of course

that's a damn lie! Of course his ignorance (by definition - due to or showing lack of knowledge or training) showed in his actions! he was IGNORANT of how to act in public, or at least in certain situations and revealed to the world that he had no home training- something all of our good black mother's taught us as children, or he is retarded, take your pick! Actually the ONLY people still eating out his ass are rich white folks, and IGNORANT black people like you who think he gives a damn about or are speaking for us. He's a clown. An almost purely narcissistic one at that.

well you have your opionion

well you have your opionion and yoo and myself have our own. Although I don't condone some of Kanye West's recent actions as acceptable or appropriate in any way I'm still a fan and find that he speaks about content that is actually interesting and relevant to me. I'm not about to make excuses for what he did but everybody f*&^s up and to define him as completely ignorant and ubable to make a positive change after doing some ignorant things is small minded. Neither you nor I have any idea what was going on with him or possessed him to do what he did. I'm neither a rich white person nor an ignorant Black person but I'm still a fan. I'm not "eating out his ass" as you call it, which to me signifies a lack of intelligence because you are unable to express yourself without using vulgar language. To call one ignorant just because they have a different opinion about West than yourself seems like the ignorant behavior. In any event "GO YEEZY". Can't wait for the next album!!

You should cause Kanye

You should cause Kanye embarrassed the hell of out Black America again with the n-word filled rant at Facebook. Someone needs to explain to me how these so-called intelligent rappers can't express themselves without lowering themselves. Black people act like they have no integrity, no dignity, and no respect for their history. No wonder whites and other ethnic groups laugh at us.

Thats why I ABSOLUTELY KANYE WEST! He said Jesus was Black, spoke about slavery & how many times he got called "Nigger" on twitter by White America, in front of that White audience & did it with confidence! I love him for that b/c if he doesn't speak for how a lot of Blacks REALLY feel, then no one will..

I know right because Kanye is supposed to only make music that makes white people feel comfortable *rolls eyes*. And him and every other rapper perform songs with "nigga" in them in front of thousands of white people at concerts.

They only do it to appeal to

They only do it to appeal to young people. It is shocking, rebellious and older people hate it. They aren't trying to make statements, they are trying to push sales. I will never forget as long as I live every single time that word has been used against me and my family. It hurt then and it still hurts now.
