When I See It features an even more heavily-autotuned, singing West (for better or for worse) than the previous track. At under two minutes, it’s also much shorter than the song by The Weeknd from which it originated. GQ notes that Tell All Your Friends was originally scheduled to be on the rapper’s upcoming album, so maybe this version is a scrapped Kanye West single?
West’s music career hasn’t been the rappers only priority lately, though. Last month, he revealed the second season of his Yeezus clothing line. “There’s something about the way clothes fit and feel and the emotion that they give you,” said the rapper to Vanity Fair recently on why he got into fashion. “… the details of [clothes] that I’ve been passionate about and addicted to since I was five years old.”
Going back to music, it’s unclear if there’s any relationship between the two tracks and the rapper’s upcoming fourth record Swish, but it seems doubtful. In the same Vanity Fair interview, he briefly mentioned that he wasn’t sure about the release date. “I’m not worried about the years,” said West. “I’m worried about the life and the body of work that I can put out while I’m breathing.”
