Kanye West Hosts Third ‘Donda’ Listening Party In Chicago, Seemingly Replaces Jay-Z W/ DaBaby On Track + Estranged Wife Kim Kardashian Wears A Wedding Dress To The Event

As fans await Donda‘s release, Kanye West put on a third listening party.

Yesterday (Thursday, Aug. 26th), Kanye West hosted his third Donda listening event. Unlike his prior two listening parties in Atlanta, the third one took place in Chicago.

As previously reported, Kanye West incorporated a replica of his childhood home into his third Donda event. The home was featured at the center of Soldier Field, and was surrounded by a fence and numerous people in militaristic clothing. Kanye West made his entrance by walking out of the replica.

Notably, Kanye West debuted a new track with Lauryn Hill. He sampled “Doo Wop (That Thing)” in the previously unheard track.

Additionally, it appears as though Kanye West may have also made some changes to “Jail”–another song on Donda. At the last two listening parties, Jay-Z could be heard rapping on the track. However, there is now speculation that Kanye West may have replaced Jay-Z on the song, as the version of “Jail” played at Soldier Field debuted a DaBaby verse. Additionally, Kanye West brought out DaBaby and Marilyn Manson for the song.

Notably, DaBaby and Marilyn Manson weren’t the only celebrities to stand beside Kanye West at the event. He was also accompanied by Travis Scott, Westside Gunn, Shenseea, and Don Toliver at one point–all hanging out outside the replica of Kanye West‘s childhood home.

Additionally, it is worth noting that Kanye West set himself on fire at one point during the event.
