Kanye Wests Donda
Kanye West's *Donda* album, released in 2021, is a deeply personal project that reflects his emotional journey and relationship with his late mother, Donda West. The album intricately blends themes of faith, family, and loss while incorporating a wide range of musical styles from gospel to hip-hop. Kanye's creative process for *Donda* was highly experimental, as he famously turned the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta into a temporary living and recording space, allowing him to continuously refine the project.
Throughout the *Donda* recording sessions, Kanye used the Kaotica Eyeball to ensure studio-grade sound quality in various environments, achieving warmth, clarity, and precision in his vocals. The Eyeball’s portability made it an ideal tool, especially during Kanye’s unconventional recording setups. It allowed him to maintain consistency in sound, whether he was recording in a stadium or a more traditional setting. This vocal isolation technology contributed to the immersive sound experience heard on the album.
Additionally, Kanye's documentary *jeen-yuhs: A Kanye Trilogy* on Netflix, which offers an intimate look into his life and career, features the Eyeball during his creative process. The documentary spans over 20 years, showcasing his rise to fame and the significant influence his mother had on his life and music.Â
