Kanye West may be gearing up to release his new album So Help Me God, but don't think that there's an official tracklist or release date floating around the Internet. Earlier this week, a reported tracklist for Yeezy's eighth studio album was posted on Twitter, but now the "All Day" rapper's label, Def Jam Records, is dismissing that as pure fabrication.
The fake tracklist included some information that made sense for West's Yeezus follow-up. It's already been announced that his Vic Mensa/Sia collaboration "Wolves" would kick off the album, and singles "Only One" and "All Day" have already dropped. West's Rihanna and Paul McCartney collaboration, "FourFiveSeconds" was not included on the standard tracklist (that's reserved for RiRi's "R8"), but it was a bonus single. And this all makes sense.
Collaborators on the fake tracklist also included Drake, The Weeknd, 2 Chainz and Pusha T.
A release date was also attached to the tracklist, with So Help Me God due to drop (by surprise?) on May 10.

02. The Storm
03. Cold Hearted, feat. The Weeknd, Travi$ Scott
04. All Day, feat. Allan Kingdom, Theophilus London, Paul McCartney

08. Only One, feat. Paul McCartney
09. Orpheus
10. Moved On, feat. Pusha T
11. Heaven, feat. El DeBarge, Paul McCartney
12. vii xii xlix
iTunes Store Bonus Track:
13. Platinum

Seems like we'll have to keep waiting for more information before we can officially declare it "Yeezy Season."
