Following the release of 2013’s off-the-wall Yeezus, the adorably emotional “Only One,” that horrid song with Rihanna, and the subdued/strange “Wolves” with Sia and Vic Mensa, “All Day” is a welcomed change. Or, perhaps, rather, a welcomed bit of nostalgia. While still keeping it fresh, Kanye goes back to his roots on “All Day” – serving his unmistakeable brand of hip-hop. Littered with collaboration, witty verses with plenty attitude, and flawless production. “All Day” has a long list of collaborators, but the credited features go to Theophilus London, Allan Kingdom, and Sir Paul McCartney once again. If “All Day” is any indication, his upcoming album, tentatively titled So Help Me God, is the true follow up to My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy that we’ve all been waiting for.
