Kanye West has announced his upcoming album Yandhi is not yet ready and has pushed back its release for a second time.

The American rapper already changed the release date after it was due to drop earlier this year in line with his Saturday Night Live Performance on September 29.

She wrote: “Nov 23 Black Friday YANDHI. TRUST ME it is worth the wait.”

But West is still not ready to drop the album, telling fans: “It felt so good being on the stage last night with my brother Cudi. After performing again, I realise the new album I’ve been working on isn’t ready yet.

“I’ll announce the release date once it’s done. Thank you for understanding.”

Fans appeared more than disappointed as they shared a string of crying memes and angry clips.

One user wrote: “So please let it be a full length album I love you.”

Another commented: “Are you serious rn? (sic).”

A third added: “I knew this was going to happen Ye why did you do this?”

Others tweeted their support, wishing the star “luck”.

One user posted: “All good things are worth the wait.”

Another posted: “Glad to see this, take your time. It makes a difference.”

West is yet to offer a rescheduled date but has promised to announce a date upon completion.
