Kanye West, renowned for his visionary projects and unpredictable announcements, has revived one of his most ambitious ideas, “DROAM”, a conceptual city rooted in innovation and sustainability. As anticipation builds for his upcoming album, BULLY, Ye took to Instagram to share the framework for this futuristic urban concept, sparking curiosity among fans and skeptics alike.

Initially envisioned as a self-sustaining city in the Middle East, “DROAM” showcases Kanye’s unique ability to merge creativity, functionality and aesthetics. His recent Instagram post offered a glimpse into the project’s ethos, highlighting architectural philosophies and community systems. The accompanying image depicted a minimalistic, open space, emphasizing accessibility, efficient spacing and a “primitive, naturalistic approach” to design.

Kanye has also considered relocating “DROAM” closer to home, once proposing Los Angeles as a potential site. However, residents of North Beverly Park swiftly dismissed the idea, calling it “delusional” and pointing out the logistical challenges such an ambitious project would face. Despite the criticism, Ye remains undaunted, refining his vision while seeking like-minded collaborators to bring “DROAM” to life.
