Listen to Kanye West's new Sampha-featuring track "Saint Pablo," dedicated to his firstborn son.

A new Yeezy leak has hit the web, and it comes in stunning quality, sounding like what has to be the CDQ. Named after his three-month-old son, Kanye performed "Saint Pablo" last month at Yo Gotti's release party for The Art of Hustle. The track features British singer Sampha, who lends his fragile vocals to a particularly gorgeous Mike Dean production. Knowing Ye, there are likely a couple of other heads behind the mix as well. 

Unsurprisingly, "Saint Pablo" is Kanye at his most ambitious, but amazingly, the song rings with readily relatable inspiration. It's equal parts pain and glory, and it's more of the brave soul-bearing that made The Life of Pablo such a masterful work. 

The leak of "Saint West" arrives just before The Life of Pablo is set to arrive on Apple Music and Spotify. If this is the first taste off Turbo Grafx 16, it's gonna be a historic year for Kanye West.

Quotable Lyrics:

People tryna say I'm goin' crazy on Twitter
My friends' best advice was to stay low
I guess it's hard to decipher all of the bills
Especially when you got family members on payroll
The media said it was outlandish spendin'
The media said he's way out of control
I just feel like I'm the only one not pretendin'
I'm not out of control, I'm just not in they control
