"Keahole" is an unreleased song by Kanye West that was created in 2014 for his unreleased album Yeezus II. The song features production from Hudson Mohawke and Blood Orange, the latter of which is also credited as a feature.[1]
Production[]
The song features production from Hudson Mohawke and Blood Orange and runs at a tempo of 129 BPM in the F key with a major mode and an alt key of 7B.[2]
Background[]
The initial freestyle was recorded on the July 15th of 2014 over a beat produced by Hudson Mohawke.[3] The beat was later tweaked, though it's unclear if a version with Kanye vocals exists for this version of the song.[4]
Though unclear if the song was worked on throughout the So Help Me God and SWISH eras, the song was seemingly shortly brought back for Waves with new production from Blood Orange.[1] Like the previous version, it's unclear if a version with either Kanye or Blood Orange vocals exists as in the original filename it credits Blood Orange as a feature.
