"Censori Overload",[1] better known as "Someday We’ll All Be Free", is a song by American rapper Kanye West. It was released as a promotional single on December 7, 2022, via Instagram and Alex Jones's Infowars website.
According to Cunningham, the song was written, produced, and recorded within the span of one hour.[2]
Background
[edit]Composition
[edit]Speaking on the repetitive nature of the song’s instrumental, Cunningham stated: "Listening to loops made me successful. Repetition is important, you hear something new each time."[2]
Release
[edit]"Censori Overload" was released on the night of December 7, 2022.[3] It was exclusively released onto two platforms: Instagram and the Infowars website. West’s post on the former came with the caption "Censori overload. The variable epitope library from the antigen promotes an immune response in the body".[4] The intentional misspelling of the phrase "sensory overload" is in reference his wife Bianca Censori.[1]
Reception
[edit]Andre Gee of Rolling Stone described the song’s lyrics as "a double-down on the conservative, antisemetic [sic] rhetoric Ye’s been expressing in recent months". He felt that West had tired the public with his opinions, ending his review with: "Ye’s knack for stirring soul samples and baring his honesty hasn’t gone anywhere, but many people’s tolerance to hear it is long gone."[4]
