Kanye West confirms Chicago Donda listening party for next week

Earlier this month (6 August) Kanye West was due to release his Donda album after it got delayed from its original release date of 23 July, but when 6 August arrived, the album was nowhere to be found.

While a new release date is yet to be officially announced, a third listening party event has been announced, and it'll take place at Chicago's Soldier Field stadium instead of Atlanta's Mercedes-Benz stadium, where Kanye West was living while working on Donda following the first listening party last month.
