Kanye West has shared a brand new song, “Real Friends,” which he posted to Soundcloud today. The post also includes a snippet of another new song, “No More Parties in LA,” which features Kendrick Lamar. “Real Friends” features Ty Dolla $ign, was produced by West, has samples by Frank Dukes and Boi-1da, and drum programming from Havoc. “No More Parties in LA” was produced by Madlib and samples Suzie Junie Morrison’s “Thundertussy.”
The songs were posted to Soundcloud, but soon deleted as West wasn’t happy with the sound quality and then was reposted. See West’s tweets on the matter below or check out Pitchfork’s amusing post on the song, which features various updates as the song is posted, then deleted, then posted, then deleted, then posted, etc.
Un momento, there was a slight distortion in the main loop within Real Friends.

It will be back up shortly. When it’s back up all rippers please rip the new one instead.

I like the beat and the real words of this song. Kanye has always been one of my favorites. For one, his voice has a serious tone behind it. For two, his beats are off the wall creative.
