Bully

Bully is the twelfth studio album by the American rapper Kanye West. It was released through YZY and Gamma on March 28, 2026. The album features guest appearances from Travis Scott, André Troutman, CeeLo Green, and Peso Pluma. Production was handled by West and Troutman themselves, the Legendary Traxster, Nkenge 1x, and 88-Keys, among others. "Father", a collaboration with Travis Scott, was released as the album's lead single along with its release.

West began working on Bully after the release of Vultures 1 and 2 (2024), and announced it in September 2024. He surprise released multiple work-in-progress versions via X on March 18, 2025. These were accompanied by a short film, Bully V1, directed by West and edited by Hype Williams. It stars West's son, Saint, who fights New Japan Pro-Wrestling wrestlers with a toy mallet.

Sonically, Bully V1 extensively relies on sampling and interpolations, and West mostly sings instead of rapping. Most of West's vocals in the original and physical releases were artificial intelligence-generated audio deepfakes, and he would later re-record most lyrics with his own vocals. Bully V1 received positive reviews from music critics, with praise for its production, though some found its presentation lackluster.
