A busy rollout period

The “GEMINI SEASON” video, released on his birthday, added another layer to his recent output and kept fans engaged ahead of the deluxe rollout.

Directed with a stylised and experimental approach, the visual features Bianca Censori in a central role, reinforcing Ye’s tendency to blur the lines between music, fashion, and performance art.

Kanye West remains one of the most closely watched figures in global music, with each release drawing widespread reaction across social media and entertainment circles.

The BULLY deluxe edition now joins a long list of highly anticipated projects from the artist, who continues to evolve his sound and visual identity with every release.

With the Friday, June 19, 2026 date now set, attention shifts to what new direction the expanded project may take and how it will build on the original album’s impact.
