The Life of Pablo

In May 2015, West renamed the album SWISH but clarified that it still could be subject to change. On January 26, 2016, West posted a supposed finalized track-listing on his Twitter account, along with another tentative title for the album, Waves. On February 4, West confirmed on Big Boy's Neighborhood radio show, that he still did not have a final album title. On February 9, West tweeted that the acronym of the album title was T.L.O.P. It was revealed the next day via Twitter that the album was titledThe Life of Pablo. West tweeted the album cover on February 11, 2016. West also debuted a portion of the album during his Yeezy Season 3 event on the same day, which West intended to be the album's official release day. West revised the track-list on multiple occasions, ultimately modifying it on February 12, from ten tracks to seventeen. However, the release was delayed in order to include one final track, "Waves", which was initially removed from the original track-list. On February 15, 2016, Chance the Rapper annotated one of his lyrics from "Ultralight Beam" on Genius, explaining that the track was originally supposed to be the album's outro, rather than the opener on the version made available on Tidal.
