Kanye West was supposed to be dropping his latest album Jesus Is King yesterday, as teased by the Kardashian-Wests in recent weeks. While the album itself didn't drop as promised, a small audience got their first listen to West's hugely anticipated ninth studio album at the Fox Theatre in Detroit, as part of the Jesus is King: A Kanye West Experience.  The event took place just hours after a special Friday edition of Sunday Service.
