Hit-Boy may no longer be a part of the G.O.O.D. Music fold, but that didn’t stop him from utilizing Kanye West’s “New Slaves” for his own purposes. With that, we receive a remix, titled “New Chain,” that is a bit different both sonically and topic-wise from his former boss’s Yeezus standout.

At times, Kanye West‘s candid interview with W magazine rivaled some of his most egomaniacal moments of all time. However, it also revealed the Chicago rapper’s plans to debut a “capsule collection of jeans, T-shirts, and hoodies for a hip French brand,” which we now know to be A.P.C.

Yeezus was an album marked by ambiguity and unprecedented promotional tactics.

Kanye West’s Yeezus album will top the album sales chart this week, but not by much. J. Cole came in a close second with his sophomore album, Born Sinner, while Mac Miller also made a strong debut with his Watching Movies With The Sound Off project.

Kanye West willingly credits everyone that contributes to his projects. Now that the info is available for Yeezus, we know that CyHi The Prynce contributed writing to nine of the 10 tracks on the project. Because of this, MTV sat with the G.O.O.D. Music rapper to speak on the process for the album sessions.
