Kanye West Remakes 'Ultralight Beam' and Releases 'Famous' on Apple Music, Spotify

Kanye West said that his The Life Of Pablo album is a "living breathing changing creative expression" since he will continue making changes to some of its tracks. Indeed, after changing "Wolves," he recently tweaked "Ultralight Beam" and he has now made "Famous" available on Spotify and Apple Music.

The rapper was in a mood to create music during the religious holiday as he worked with gospel singer Kirk Franklin. Easter was indeed the perfect day to release the two minutes long song which appears like an extended version or an alternate of "Ultralight Beam" and it is titled, "Ultralight Prayer."

Gospel elements exist on the opener of the original song which could have made West decide to use it as a song of prayer with a line that says, "Let them know that's why you took the nail; so we could have eternal life," and "you will forgive all of our wrongs and make us new again," NME reported.

Meanwhile, the track "Famous" is now available on Apple Music and Spotify. The song, which features Rihanna, is the first track from The Life Of Pablo album (which is exclusively with Tidal) to be out on other streaming services.

"Famous" was also revised by West adding a vocal line from Nina Simone, as previously reported by Music Times. The tweaked version is the one released and fans can listen to it on Apple Music, Google Play Music and stream it on Spotify, The Verge reported.

West did not confirm yet if there are other tracks from the Tidal exclusive album that will be released to other streaming services.

In other news, apart from releasing "Ultralight Prayer" on Easter, West also celebrated with his family as he showed up as an Easter Bunny along with Kylie Jenner's beau, Tyga, to surprise the children. Snapchat videos were shared by Jenner featuring the bunnies and the children who are running with baskets filled with candies, People reported.
