Kanye West sent his fans into a festive frenzy by dropping his Sunday Service Choir album Jesus Is Born on Christmas Day (Dec. 25).
“#JesusIsBorn” by @kanyewest is a straight praise break,” one fan wrote, while another declared, “These sweet soulful sounds are easily one of the best Christmas gifts I could have ever gotten.” Many fans, meanwhile, were simply excited to note that West — a notoriously perfectionist — put the album out on its scheduled day of release.
Featuring original spirituals as well as a choral reworkings of The Life Of Pablo-era tracks “Ultralight Beam” and “Father Stretch,” Jesus Is Born arrives just two months to the day after West’s more hip-hop-leaning gospel album, Jesus Is King.
Check out the best fan reactions to Jesus Is Born below.

If you’re complaining that Jesus is Born doesn’t have Kanye on it, you don’t get the point. It’s SUPPOSED to be a Sunday Service album. #jesusisborn

This album is the missing link of Jesus is King that I was waiting for. Thank you @kanyewest and Sunday Service Choir for bringing it to us on the best day of the year. #JesusIsBorn pic.twitter.com/wA9F3ydj96
