Were not just talking about albums either (but where isYandhi, anyway?)
its the same story throughout Kanyes prolific film career.

Wish there were maybe some sort of filmed evidence of the whole thing?
Not so with KanyesCruel Summer, whichhe showed out of competition in 2012.

To accommodate this, Kanyecontracted design firm 2x4to construct a pyramid-shaped theater at Cannes.
Were still waiting on that.
Thanks to dedicated Kanye fans who took video during the projections (because why would you not?

Theres something about Kanye video premieres and France.
Thats not to say its not out there if you know where to look (which we do).

Dont count on it but dont count it out, either.
