"Follow God" is a song by American rapper Kanye West from his ninth studio album, Jesus Is King (2019). The song was produced by West, BoogzDaBeast and Xcelence. The producers wrote it alongside Aaron Butts, though the song's sampling of work by Whole Truth led to songwriting credits being listed for Calvin and Curtis Eubanks. It was playlisted to UK mainstream radio by the BBC as the album's lead single on November 8, 2019, through GOOD Music and Def Jam. Around the time of release, the song was the top performing track from Jesus Is King on streaming services. A religious hip hop track, it includes a sample of "Can You Lose by Following God" by Whole Truth, which is chopped up in certain sections. On February 6, 2021, a Dr. Dre Remix was leaked from the scrapped Jesus Is King II album.

The lyrics of "Follow God" are about Kanye West's connection with his father, which is in reference to both God and his biological father Ray West, while the meaning of being "Christlike" is questioned by him. The song received generally positive reviews from music critics; many named it the best track on Jesus Is King. Critics appreciated the bouncing beat and Whole Truth sample, and complimented West's rapping flow and pace. The song was awarded Top Gospel Song and Rap/Hip Hop Recorded Song of the Year at the Billboard Music Awards and 51st GMA Dove Awards in 2020, respectively.

Commercially, "Follow God" debuted at number 7 on the US Billboard Hot 100, becoming West's 18th track to reach the top 10 on the chart. The song also reached the top 10 in nine other countries, including Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom. It was later certified double platinum and silver in the United States and the United Kingdom by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and British Phonographic Industry (BPI), respectively. The song also received a gold certification in Denmark by IFPI Danmark, while it was awarded this certification in Portugal by Associação Fonográfica Portuguesa (AFP). An accompanying music video was screened on November 6, 2019, and released the following day. It shows Kanye and Ray West drive ATVs in snow in Cody, Wyoming. The video concludes with a message from Kanye about his relationship with Ray West. Kanye West performed the song with the Sunday Service Choir as part of his Sunday Service concerts in 2019.

Background and development

West teased the song in 2019 prior to release, including playing it during a listening party for Jesus Is King at The Forum in the County of Los Angeles. Jesus is King - The Forum, LA (48951268196).jpg

Kanye West produced "Follow God" with Xcelence and BoogzDaBeast, the latter of which is one of Jesus Is King's lesser-known producers who contributed to six of its tracks. [1] [2] West previously worked with BoogzDaBeast on the 2018 self-titled debut studio album by Kids See Ghosts, a hip hop duo composed of West and Kid Cudi. [3] The song title was first revealed in a revised track listing of Jesus Is King that West's wife Kim Kardashian shared via Twitter on September 27, 2019. [4] West later previewed the track at a listening party for the album at The Forum in the Los Angeles County on October 23 of that year. [5]

The song samples "Can You Lose By Following God" (1969) by gospel band Whole Truth, which was featured on archival record label The Numero Group's 2013 compilation album Good God! Apocryphal Hymns. [6] Though the album was not confirmed to be the sample source, West had often sampled music released through the archival record label in the past, including on his tracks "Bound 2", "Facts", "Ghost Town", and "4th Dimension". [6] Brothers Calvin and Curtis Eubanks received credit as writers on "Follow God" because they contributed backing vocals to "Can You Lose By Following God". [7] [8] The song was co-written by West, Aaron Butts, Xcelence and BoogzDaBeast. [7] "Follow God" was one of the three tracks that caused the release of Jesus Is King to be delayed due to mixing modifications. [9] West collaborator Consequence explained that the song was important to West due to him being "up against the ghost of" his previous tracks such as "Otis", "Good Morning", "Champion" and "Heard 'Em Say". According to Consequence, "Follow God" had "to go somewhere new" and "be mechanically in tune with the people." Consequence said the song "is a dirty version that got cleaned up," which he and West opted for, believing it was an authentic version that "the people are going to gravitate to". [10] West cited "Follow God" as an example of him creating a track "that people never heard before." [11]

"Follow God" is a hip hop track [15] which features a chopped up sample of Whole Truth's soul [13] [16] [17] [18] recording "Can You Lose by Following God". [12] [14] It was compared to West's earlier releases which used samples, [19] and his 2016 song "Father Stretch My Hands, Pt. 1". [12] [20] [21] "Follow God" is built around the sample's vocal line, "Father, I stretch/Stretch my hands to You," which begins from the 1:32 mark of the sample. [14] [22] It opens with the sample used as a declaration. [12]

The lyrics are about Kanye's connection with his father, although he references God under this connection as well as Ray West. [12] However, the lyrics are not entirely religious, with the song including Kanye West demonstrating faith in himself. [23] It also speaks of disconnecting from negativity related to social media. [12] West begins his verse with lines about struggling to achieve pureness in a world of sin, while in other lyrics he compares himself to Jesus Christ and Michael Jordan. [12] [24] In "Follow God", West considers what it means to be "Christlike" after an argument with his father. [14] [25] The song concludes with West climaxing the argument by recalling the two of them getting angry at each other, accompanied by a scream from him. [12] [20]

The phrase "what your life like" is repeatedly used as a question by West and was compared to fellow rapper Shotgun Suge's "What's your life like?" phrase. Suge said the phrase was his slogan and that West should acknowledge battle rap culture. A writer from The Source argued that West used the phrase as "a device for introspective contemplation", while Suge used it to "challenge the authenticity of his opponents". [26]

Release and promotion

"Follow God" was released on October 25, 2019, along with West's ninth studio album Jesus Is King, as its third track. [27] On November 5, West chose it as the lead single from Jesus Is King after it became the album's most popular track on streaming services at the time. [28] The song was playlisted by British mainstream radio station BBC Radio 1 on November 8, 2019. [29] It was later released to radio stations in Italy on November 11, and the United States on November 12, 2019. [28] [30]

A lyric video was released for "Follow God" on YouTube on October 26, 2019. [31] On November 1, 2019, West and his gospel group the Sunday Service Choir performed the song during a concert at Bethany Rose Church in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. [32] West performed the track during a surprise appearance at fellow rapper Travis Scott's Astroworld Festival in Houston on November 9, 2019. [33] During a Sunday Service Experience performance of the song at Joel Osteen's Lakewood Church on November 17, West name-dropped American convict Rodney Reed, who Kardashian helped with delaying a court order. [34] West performed the song live as part of a Sunday Service concert in Downtown Los Angeles' Skid Row on December 29, 2019. [35]

Critical reception

"Follow God" was well received by most music critics; a number of them viewed it as the best track on Jesus Is King. [nb 1] Writing for Entertainment Weekly , Brian Josephs called the song West's "most palpable post- Life of Pablo thriller," citing his verse as "a surreal stream-of-conscious sprint". [39] Wren Graves of Consequence of Sound said the song structure is reminiscent of West's "older tricks" and commented, "It's not just the best beat on the album; it's also Kanye at his most lucid and raw." [25] The Atlantic 's Spencer Kornhaber likened the "focus and ease" of West's flow to that of Watch the Throne , his 2011 album with fellow rapper Jay-Z. [40] Ross Horton of The Line of Best Fit regarded the track as "a sickening reminder of how good Ye has been in the past", highlighting its "bulletproof beats, scratchy rapid-fire rapping," and "tight rhymes". [37]

Jordan Bassett of NME called the song "pounding" and likened its "bouncing beat" to music from West's 2018 album Ye . [36] Neil Z. Yeung from AllMusic cited the "slapping beat" as among Jesus Is King's "true power" which he felt was in West's "meticulous studio tinkering". [27] Rolling Stone 's Brendan Klinkenberg described the Whole Truth sample as "neck-snappingly good" with "the kind of textured punch that, still, only West seems capable of." [41] In The Independent , Roisin O'Connor appreciated the sample's "cool, funk-inflected" groove, and said the song has "some of West's sharpest bars delivered in a strangely deadpan style." [38] Dean Van Nguyen of The Guardian wrote that the "lean soul sample" recalled West's 2013 single "Bound 2", [16] while Chicago Tribune 's Greg Kot commented that it evoked West's earlier music which had a "knack for astutely reviving and recontextualizing snippets of soul 'dusties.'" [17] In a review for Clash , Will Rosebury felt the Whole Truth sample complimented the "incredible" song's thumping drums. [18]

Rawiya Kameir of Pitchfork wrote that despite Jesus Is King lacking the vulnerability which made West "a uniquely compelling artist," "Follow God" was an exception because it "prompts consideration, however shallow, of what it means to be 'Christlike.'" [14] In her review of the album, Phoebe Luckhurst of the Evening Standard regarded "Follow God" as "the best of a fairly poor bunch." [42] Exclaim! 's Joey Chini viewed it as the album's "only slapper" and said although being "painfully short", it is "a return to form" for West and "took the record in the right direction". [43] On the other hand, Andrew R. Chow of Time was critical of West for not developing a metaphor about God, and called the song "a reject" from GOOD Music president Pusha T's 2018 album Daytona . [44]

Accolades

Complex placed "Follow God" at number 49 in its list of the Top Songs of 2019. Eric Skelton from the publication said the track was a reminder of West's "enduring musical gifts" and its "vintage Ye" production "should please anyone who still pines for a return of the 'old Kanye.'" [45] "Follow God" ranked as Australian radio station Triple J's 87th most popular song of 2019. [46] The song was nominated for the Best Gospel/Inspirational Award at the 20th BET Awards in 2020, though ultimately lost to Kirk Franklin's single "Just for Me" (2019). [47] At the 2020 Billboard Music Awards, the song won the Top Gospel Song award over fellow album tracks "Closed on Sunday", "On God" and "Selah". [48] The song received a nomination for the award of Top Christian Song at the same ceremony. [48] At the 51st GMA Dove Awards in 2020, "Follow God" was awarded Rap/Hip Hop Recorded Song of the Year. [49]

Music video

Synopsis

The music video opens with a scene of Kanye and Ray West walking on snow. [59] [60] Pastor Kerwin B. Lee delivers a voiceover, asking: "What does it really mean to follow God?". [59] He describes how Kanye and others feel fear when they first walk in the snow from the perspective of God looking at his children. [59] The outfit worn by Kanye consists of an orange hoodie, white vest, brown gloves, and thermal trousers. [61] The Wests drive around in all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) in the music video. [55] After initially driving around in a relatively large ATV, the two of them later change to a larger one for transport and use the vehicle for doing donuts. [62] [63] The Wests are also shown dancing and Kanye mimes his own scream. [51] [62] The visual ends with white text displayed over a blue background. The message explains it took Kanye 42 years to realize that his father is his best friend. [51] [56]

Reception

Craig Jenkins of Vulture wrote that "Follow God" continued a streak from 2011's "Otis" and 2007's "Flashing Lights" as West's "most striking" videos that were also filmed in cars. Jenkins found the setting symbolic for the Wests due to Ray recalling a time when his children never saw snow, and Kanye now owning ranch lands that Ray's grandchildren can call their "backyard". [64] Spin 's Tosten Burks said Kanye and Ray's connection in the video made it "one of the more charming things Kanye has released in some time". [65] Thom Waite of Dazed felt it showed that Kanye's relationship with Ray was "running a bit more smoothly" than what the song's lyrics suggested. [51] The music video received over 1.6 million views on YouTube following its first 14 hours of release. [66] As of January 2024 the music video has 55 million views.

"24" is a song by American rapper Kanye West from his tenth studio album, Donda (2021). The song features additional vocals from Kenyan-American rapper KayCyy and the Sunday Service Choir. The rappers wrote it alongside Brian Miller, Ojivolta, and Warryn Campbell. The song is titled after the jersey number of Kobe Bryant, for whom it was recorded shortly after his death in January 2020. While the song did experience different reiterations over time, West had written its melody a day before Bryant died. A gospel song that includes church organ stabs, it is a tribute to Bryant.

"Come to Life" is a song by American rapper Kanye West from his tenth studio album, Donda (2021).
