Even though it has only been about 15 months since the release of Yeezus, Kanye West's next album cannot seem to come soon enough.

On the evening of Sept. 24 in Paris, however, West reportedly played his new album three times in a row for just 20 people.

This news came from Brooklyn rapper Theophilus London, who posted a picture of himself and Kanye to his Instagram account and wrote this caption along with it:

"So shortly after this picture I Only remember kanye playing his new album 3 times in a dark room of 20 people last night and moshing drunk with mad babes haha,"

There's no word yet as to what these lucky 20 people thought of Yeezy's new album or what it even sounds like, but in November West compared his next album to Bruce Springsteen's classic Born in the U.S.A.

"Bruce Springsteen dropped this album called Nebraska and right after that he did Born in the U.S.A.," he told Power 105.1's The Breakfast Club. "This next one, I have a feeling, because of what we did right now, has to be Born in the U.S.A."

Though this new album may be finished, that does not mean West will be releasing the same songs he previewed last night. Just two weeks before the June 2013 release of Yeezus, he famously collaborated with producer Rick Rubin to radically strip down the album's production, giving it an aggressively minimalist sound.
