Kanye West is turning up the dial on nostalgia as he prepares for a third listening event for his upcoming album “DONDA.”
The event is set to take place Thursday, Aug. 26,l at Chicago’s Soldier Field, and if all goes according to plan, it will precede the drop of the anticipated album, finally. West’s return to the city quite literally marks a return to home, even more so as crews hustle to recreate a replica of his childhood home inside the stadium.

On Aug. 20 the “College Dropout” rapper shared on social a photo of the home in which he grew up. The South Shore residence has sentimental value to the rapper, who purchased it for a reported $225,000 last year. The home was first owned by his late mother, Donda West, beginning the 1980s, however, she later sold it in 2004, just three years before her untimely passing.
West previously held listening events at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. West would go on to set up temporary lodging at the stadium to finish working on the album that was dealt two release pushbacks. But as one fan predicted, his return home to Chicago, Illinois, may have been a part of the plan from the beginning.
For the first event, West donned an all-red outfit, complete with red shoes and a nude mesh-like face covering, symbolizing what some believe to be “hell.” The second event West saw West wearing black attire but concluded the music by ascending into the air, symbolizing the journey to “heaven.”
Now with the focal point being his return to home, fans suspect “he will be wearing white and he’s in heaven” and at some point may feature an hologram of his mother.
