Kanye West’s Sunday Service Choir released a surprise new EP titled
Emmanuel on Christmas Day, following the group’s previous holiday release
Jesus Is Born, which dropped on Christmas Day 2019. The 12-minute, five-track EP consists entirely of a capella choral arrangements, mostly in Latin. West is credited as the sole writer and producer on all of the songs.
West embraced the Christian music genre with
Jesus Is King after forming the Sunday Service group in 2019, and
Jesus Is Born followed in that vein with a gospel sound. Earlier this year, West released the singles “Wash Us in the Blood” and “Nah Nah Nah,” returning to more of a hip-hop style.
Emmanuel is now available on
all streaming platforms.
