Kanye West has officially released Bully on March 28, bringing an end to one of the most unpredictable rollout cycles of his career. The 18-track project, released via YZY and Gamma, runs for 42 minutes and arrives alongside the lead single “Father” featuring Travis Scott, whose music video is now available on YouTube.
Features are used selectively across the album, with West maintaining a tight circle of collaborators rather than stacking the tracklist with high-volume appearances. Travis Scott’s presence on “Father” anchors the project’s lead moment, while André Troutman contributes to “All The Love” and “White Lines.” On the title track “Bully,” CeeLo Green delivers a standout vocal feature.
Elsewhere, Don Toliver appears on “Circles,” continuing his creative link with West’s recent sonic direction (he also appeared on Donda and Donda 2), while Peso Pluma brings a cross-genre dimension to “Last Breath.”
Behind the boards, Bully is shaped by a wide-ranging production team. West shares credits with longtime collaborators and new voices alike, including 88-Keys, James Blake, The Legendary Traxster, and Nkenge 1x, alongside André Troutman, Hassan Khaffaf, Quadwoofer, and Sheffmade.
The album’s official arrival follows a fragmented debut that initially bypassed streaming platforms. On March 27, Bully premiered through a YouTube livestream tied to select listening events, leaving fans without access on Spotify or Apple Music despite earlier confirmations. That approach echoed West’s March 18 drop of three alternate versions via X, each featuring different tracklists and arrangements, alongside Bully V1, a short film edited by Hype Williams.
Now, Bully is finally available on all streaming platforms.
