Kanye West's New Album 'Incredible' Claims Label CEO

(Radio.com) Is Kanye West's new album finished or isn't it? That's been the hardest-to-answer question in hip-hop all month. Def Jam's CEO Steve Bartels has at least just shed some more light on it.

In an interview with Billboard, the recently appointed head honcho gave a meaty - though still vague (hey, we'll take what we can get) - description of West's Yeezus follow-up.

"It sounds incredible," he said. "He's focused, energetic, happy and making unbelievably great music. Kanye always wants to make sure that when it actually arrives it's at the best possible place it could be, that the first song is as big as the last. He's the absolute bar of perfection in terms of that."

Bartel also went on to say that hip-hop's most divisive figurehead is still reaping the rewards of his former albums. Read more here.
