At the turn of the New Year Kanye West released “Only One,” a collaboration with Paul McCartney, only for Ty Dolla $ign, a guest vocalist, on the track to somewhat reveal what Yeezus has up his sleeve for his seventh album. This past Wednesday (Jan 20.) Kanye previewed a piece of work, featuring Rihanna, from his album at the iHeartMedia Music Summit revealed by a source at the event.

Billboard reports the iHeartRadio Theatre in Burbank, California was the location where Def Jam CEO Steve Bartels introduced Yeezus to the attendees after speaking on forthcoming releases, one of which belongs to Big Sean.

While on stage, Kanye spoke to the crowd about wanting having the “responsibility to innovate” and clarifying a Governors Ball 2013 statement and proclaiming, “Of course I want to be on the radio!”

Within his time with the Summit participants Yeezus sang “Only One” acapella before playing a new song, which was a duet with Rihanna featuring guitars and a chorus. Hopefully that track will make its way to us soon.
