Kanye "Ye" West brings the rapture in Heaven and Hell music video
Los Angeles, California - Kanye "Ye" West tackles his faith in his latest music video for the song Heaven and Hell from his 10th album, DONDA.
Ye is pondering what the afterlife and God have in store for the world in his latest video.
On Monday, the rapper dropped the mesmerizing visual that features heavy religious themes. It follows several people donning all-black hoodies and pants while their faces remain concealed.
The two-minute and thirty-eight-second video also shows what seems to be the rapture, as Ye is seen performing masked on top of a cloud as bodies float into the sky around him.
"You cray? We cray too. You pray? We pray too. Never too late for Him to save you. This your movie, 'cause no one can play you," the 44-year-old raps.
The billionaire continues to spit rhymes over the video: "Pray for new life, pray for new breath. Hey, Lord, make sure it's safe for who's left."
The video concludes with a swirling tornado, as static images of individuals engaging in war are engulfed in the eerie clouds.
Is the project a rumination on the end of the world? Or simply a religious reckoning?
The newest visual is only a taste of what the 44-year-old has been up to lately.
Ye is currently preparing for the release of his documentary Jeen-yuhs: A Kanye Trilogy, which is a three-part documentary 21 years in the making. It will premiere later this month at the Sundance Film Festival and in theaters and on Netflix in February.
The All Falls Down rapper also recently announced that he is working on Donda 2, though it's unknown when the album will be released. If the delays from the first installment are any indication, we may have to wait a long while.
Additionally, Ye seems to have engaged in a new romance with actor Julia Fox amid his complicated divorce from Kim Kardashian. All while he's re-building a new house across the street from his ex.
As the rapper says in his latest release, it's enough to "make devils pray now."
