Though Kanye West had promised to share a new single prior to the (possible) September release of his upcoming album, it looks like someone else beat him to it. A very rough recording of a new song titled "All Day" has surfaced online at Revolt, which you can check out below.

Though the sound quality makes it difficult to tell (it sounds as if it was secretly recorded onto someone's iPhone while it was being played back in the studio), the track features Kanye furiously rapping over a stuttering beat and a wordless vocal hook reminiscent of "Black Skinhead." Like much of Yeezus, it still seems raw, but in a less confrontational and avant-garde way.

In an interview with GQ back in July, Kanye discussed some of the lyrics to "All Day" and how they differ from the stuff he normally writes. "I think about certain lines that I say on my new single," he said, "that usually Jay would say, but Jay's not on there. So I say, all day, n***a, it's Ye, n***a. Shopping for the winter, it's just May, n***a. Ball so hard, this s**t cray, n***a. You ain't getting money unless you got eight figures. Right? Jay would have said that." In the same interview, Kanye goes on to describe the single as "a song that can be in the club like 'Don't Like' or 'N****s in Paris.'"

Check out the very rough version of "All Day" right here. Let's just hope that this leak doesn't make Kanye so mad that he postpones the album indefinitely.
