Last week, Kanye West played his new album for about 20 people in Paris.
One of the people in attendance was Brooklyn rapper Theophilus London, who Instagrammed the above picture as proof. Then, when questioned about it on Twitter, Theo revealed he’s on Kanye’s upcoming single from the album:
I’m on it actually . Even the single RT @RealTalkNYnews: Theophilus London Says He Heard Kanye West’s Upcoming Album http://t.co/GnbwvrgKz2

After publications started running that piece of news, Theophilus took to Twitter to announce that people were jumping the gun, and the Yeezus follow-up is not done:
Kanye west album isn’t finish for all you Hypebeast bloggers out there writing for your magazine blogs — Theophilus London (@TheophilusL) September 30, 2014
Today, he continued:
Never said it was finished . People just read what ever they believed. I stated he played it over three times. Where does I say it’s done?

In particular, he called out SPIN, who wrote a story called “Theophilus London Is a Big Fat Kanye Liar.” London went on to blast the site:
