Cuck (album)

Cuck is the upcoming thirteenth studio album by American rapper Kanye West, intended to be released under his alias Ye. Media personality DJ Akademiks announced the album under the title WW3 during a live stream on April 2, 2025, a week after the track of the same name was released as a single on March 26.

Amid the surprise release of demos for his preceding visual album Bully the month prior, West caused controversy by making antisemitic statements, supporting Nazism, and posting offensive remarks—as well as revealing childhood incest involving his cousin on his Twitter account. The latter remark tied into the album's second single, "Cousins", released on April 21. The third single, "Heil Hitler", was released on May 8.

American rapper Dave Blunts, who first met West in February 2025, has been cited as the album's soul lyricist by multiple sources, including West himself. Blunts makes several uncredited guest appearances on the album. Quadwoofer and Sheffmade, two producers who have heavily collaborated with Blunts, are the album's primary producers.

An unfinished version of the album was leaked on May 18, 2025, following a charity group buy; the proceeds of the leak were donated to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.
