Looks as if the Kanye album rumors are true. During the NBA finals Tuesday night, a Beats ad featuring track star Sha’Carri Richardson soundtracked the rapper’s song from his new album.
The song previewed in the ad is called “No Child Left Behind” and will be on West’s new album DONDA which is set to drop Friday, per a tweet from Def Jam.

This comes after earlier this week the rapper hosted another listening event that was invite-only which was well-documented in a series of tweets series by a famed photographer.
Monday night, the Yeezy founder also posted a picture of chains with his children’s names, North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm right before posting the Beats ad.
