Here's the tentative 'Yeezus' tracklist, complete with contributions from Daft Punk, Rick Rubin, Bon Iver, Frank Ocean, Chief Keef, and more

After performing several new tracks at the Governer’s Ball this weekend, and debuting Yeezus in full at an NYC listening session last night, Kanye West’s fans are scrambling to stitch together fragments of Vines, YouTube uploads, Tweets, and first-hand accounts to get some idea of what his new album is going to sound like. A popular Kanye fan forum has cobbled together an unofficial tracklist, guessing at sequence, producers, and features. The end result is a ten track record featuring production work by Daft Punk, Skrillex, Hudson Mohawke, and Mike Dean, as well as guest features from Frank Ocean, Kid Cudi, Chicago street rapper King Louie, Travi$ Scott, Popcaan, and in what is perhaps the most interesting collaboration on deck, Chief Keef and Bon Iver on the same track. Kanye has also confirmed that legendary producer Rick Rubin earned an executive producer credit on the album, coming in just two weeks before its completion to help tie everything together.

Like anything on the Internet, this information should be taken with a grain of salt. If this is anything close to the final version of Yeezus that’s destined for our earholes next Tuesday, it’s gonna be a wild ride.

01. On Site (co-produced by Daft Punk and Skrillex)
02. BLK SKN HEAD (produced by Daft Punk)
03. I Am A God (produced by Daft Punk)

As an added bonus, Grantland let us know that “I Am A God” has our favourite lyric of 2013 on it: “I am a God / hurry up with my damn massage / at a French-ass restaurant, hurry up with my damn croissants.”
