Kanye West changes album title as SWISH becomes Waves

With global screenings lined up for February 11 - and the expected full release the following day - the hype for SWISH was just starting to reach fever pitch...and now it's done forever.
That's because the album has now been renamed; West took to Twitter to announce that his new LP will now be called 'Waves' - also sharing a handwritten version of the tracklist.

New album title, WAVES

And, ever the retiring character, he made another bold promise of the album's quality - having last year branded it "the best album of all time."

This is not album of the year. This is album of the life.
