(Radio.com) When Kanye West released an unvarnished version of "Round and Round (Champions)" it featured a who's who of ambitious, talented rappers: Gucci Mane, Big Sean, 2 Chainz, Quavo, Desiigner, Travis Scott and Yo Gotti.

Cruel Winter has been gestating for years as a followup to the G.O.O.D. Music-released Cruel Summer. While The Life of Pablo was masterminded by West and brought collaborators into his vision, Cruel Winter is expected to mirror its predecessor in diversity of sound and direction.

"Champions" proves that most of Kanye's team is aboard for the album, but there's one high-profile holdout: Kid Cudi announced he would sit this one out to pursue his own creative inclinations. Read more here.
