Why Is Kanye West Living In Atlanta’s 71,000-Seat Mercedes-Benz Stadium?

Grammy award-winning musician Kanye West has peeled back the curtain and shown his sparse living quarters at Atlanta’s 71,000-seat Mercedes-Benz Stadium, as he shuts out all distractions to finish his 10th album "Donda," named after his beloved mother Donda West, who passed away in 2007.

The "Jesus Walks" rapper, 44, hunkered down at the home of the Atlanta Falcons and Atlanta United FC soccer team last week to put the final touches on the record, which was supposed to be released last Friday, Billboard reported.

"Donda" will serve as West’s first studio album since 2019’s "Jesus Is King."

In a social media post, the rapper-record producer revealed his private makeshift bedroom, which provides a twin bed, a TV, and a small closet space for him to use to rest in between work. 'Ye, however, did not include any caption along with the photo he shared with his fans.

According to reports, there's now a suite in the building with an official stadium placard outside the door that reads, "Donda Studio at Mercedes-Benz Stadium." The songwriter has reportedly brought in a private chef to prepare his meals at the venue as well, NME noted.

The Yeezy designer had converted a stadium space into his temporary private recording studio after hosting a sold-out listening party of the "Donda" album at the stadium on July 22.

His estranged wife Kim Kardashian and their children attended the event, which saw West air tracks featuring music icons including Pusha T, Playboi Carti, Jay-Z, Travis Scott, and the late Pop Smoke.

Khloé Kardashian, Jonathan "Foodgod" Cheban, and Rick Ross also supported West at his event, where the "Flashing Light" rapper got emotional when performing "Love Unconditionally" as he rapped about "losing his family" at the back of his split from Kim, according to Fox News.

On July 24, Kanye was also spotted wandering around the stadium during an Atlanta United football match versus Columbus Crew, which he also shared on his Instagram.

"Donda" is now slated to be released on Aug. 6 after it was confirmed via Twitter by media personality Justin Laboy and West collaborator Malik Yusef, who both attended the record's listening party last week.
