Kanye West does more surprises than Santa.
The rap star jumps on board the surprise single “City of Gods,” an ode to the Big Apple with two of its favorite citizens, Fivio Foreign and Alicia Keys.
If the west coast has the City of Angels, the east has its City of Gods.
With an impassioned chorus, Keys inserts some soul into “City of Gods,” complementing the rhymes of her collaborators. On it, she sings: “New York City, please go easy on me tonight / Nеw York City, please go easy on this hеart of mine / ‘Cause I’m losing my lover to the arms of another.”
The track dropped at midnight and is led by Foreign with assists from Keys and Kanye, who is credited on the release as Kanye West, not Ye as he now likes to be known.
