With Kanye West taking an unusual approach with the release of his latest album, Yeezus, having not actually dropped a single, it now looks like the first single is soon on its way. With a clean version of Ye’s ”Black Skinhead” now being served to DJs, the song has now been confirmed by Def Jam Records as the first single. Speaking with Billboard, a label representative also went on to share that the track will also have a music video to coincide with the release, and it’s being rumored to release around the July 4 holiday – the same time his “Big Brother” Jay-Z is set to release his Magna Carta Holy Grail album. Kanye first premiered the song during his Saturday Night Live performance, and the tune has since gone on to be featured in Martin Scorsese’s trailer for his upcoming film The Wolf of Wall Street, starring Leonardo DiCaprio. Let us know your thoughts on the selection down below. What track would you prefer as the lead single?
