Kanye West's 'Bully' Album Delayed, But New Partnership With Independent Label Gamma Secures Release Date
Rapper Kanye West has signed with independent record label Gamma, a partnership that has secured the release date of his highly anticipated album, "Bully," previously thought to be released on January 30. The new release date is now set for March 20.
West, formerly known as Ye, has been working on the album, which will mark his 12th studio effort, for some time. Despite various leaks and releases of snippets, the full album was not expected until late February or early March. However, a source close to West confirmed that he is still finalizing the tracklist.
The announcement comes as West has been focusing on personal growth and self-improvement, having recently taken out an ad in The Wall Street Journal apologizing for past behavior and announcing his journey with bipolar disorder. In his statement, West expressed remorse for using the swastika symbol and assured fans that he loves Jewish people and is not a Nazi.
In recent years, West has had a tumultuous career, including a highly publicized falling out with Def Jam/UMG, which dropped him after making antisemitic remarks. The label change marks a new chapter in his decorated yet turbulent career.
West's partnership with Gamma follows a stacked roster of artists, including Mariah Carey, Sexyy Red, and Usher. With the new release date set for March 20, fans can look forward to West's "Bully" album finally dropping after months of anticipation.

his last one was so fire but now its gonna be delayed again 
anyway good that he found a new label gamma sounds legit i heard gamma is all about supporting independent artists 
cant wait for march 20 tho 
i feel like kanye's been through so much lately... all that coming out about his bipolar diagnosis and apologizing for his past behavior is really brave of him 
it takes a lot of guts to own up to mistakes and try to make amends. i'm glad he found a new partner in gamma, maybe they can help him get the support he needs to create something amazing with "bully". release date's been pushed back a few times already... fingers crossed it's finally gonna happen on march 20 
I know he's had some personal stuff going on and all, but can't he just give us a solid release date already?! 
Gamma Records is definitely doing him a solid with the new release date, though - I mean, who needs to rush a masterpiece into the world when you can just slow-cook it to perfection? 
The fact that Ye's been focusing on self-improvement and apologizing for past behavior is a bit too good to be true, but hey, even a snarky sniper like me can appreciate a redemption story... as long as he doesn't try to tweet his way through it 
. The whole thing about taking out an ad in the WSJ apologizing for past stuff is pretty cool, shows he's grown from all that drama 
. It's crazy how much his career has gone through, like a rollercoaster ride of highs and lows 
. Gamma label seems legit, hope they can help him keep it together 
.
! it's like he's getting a fresh start and I love how the release date got pushed back for him to make sure everything is perfect 
. and can you believe his apology ad in The Wall Street Journal? it's amazing to see him taking ownership of his past mistakes and being open about his mental health journey 
. now, I'm not gonna lie, his career has had its ups and downs, but I think this new chapter is gonna be super cool 
. Mariah Carey and Usher are all part of the Gamma squad too? that's some amazing talent right there! March 20 can't come soon enough 
!
. but it's also kind of inspiring that he's taking responsibility for his actions and apologizing to the community - that takes a lot of courage 
. independent labels are always the best, gives artists more control over their music. gotta say though, the whole "bully" album title seems kinda weird... is it really about overcoming past struggles or is that just marketing talk?
