Jesus wept: The inevitable deep dive into Kanye’s Jesus Is King (Podcast)

Andrea is off sick for this episode, so Niall and Luke Sharkey (who reviewed the album earlier this week) deep dive into Kanye West’s gospel album Jesus Is King. We explore Ye’s sincerity around his renewed faith, whether it translates as genuine in the music and lyrics, if there’s a fine line between hurried and spontaneity and where Jesus Is King suggests Kanye is headed.

Jesus wept.
