If you’re an Atlanta United, Major League Soccer, or Kanye West fan, chances are you’ve already heard about Kanye West patrolling the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in red pants, a red puffer jacket, and some sort of mask during Atlanta’s 1-0 loss to the Columbus Crew this past Saturday. J. Sam Jones reported the news during the match.

Kanye West and co. set up shop in the normal visitor's locker room at MBS for Thursday's listening party and stayed set up there. Crew having to use one of the (still very nice) auxiliary locker rooms today

The most recent development in this extremely important story is that the team’s official twitter account has confirmed what we’ve been hearing over the last couple days: Kanye West is living in the Mercedes-Benz Stadium to finish his newest album, DONDA, which was apparently supposed to drop last Friday after his listening party in the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Classic Kanye.

Atlanta United President Darren Eales revealed earlier today that West has remained in the visitor’s locker room with “10 beds and a makeshift recording studio” while he’s finishing the album everyone thought would already be released since he had an entire listening party for it in the same stadium.
