In addition to album of the year, \"Donda\" earned three more Grammy nominations: best rap album, best melodic rap performance for “Hurricane” featuring The Weeknd and Lil Baby, and best rap song for “Jail” featuring Jay-Z.

On Nov. 14, the 22-time Grammy winner dropped the deluxe version of \"Donda\" featuring five new songs.

The new project includes three new tracks : \"Never Abandon Your Family,\" \"Up From the Ashes,\" and the André 3000-assisted \"Life of the Party\" -- in addition to \"Keep My Spirit Alive pt 2,\" featuring KayCyy, Conway the Machine and Westside Gunn, and \"Remote Control pt 2\" with Kid Cudi and Young Thug.

The original \"Donda\" was released in August 2021, and as with West's past nine studio albums, it debuted at the top of the Billboard 200. The only artists with more No. 1 albums are the Beatles with 19, followed by Jay-Z with 14, and Barbra Streisand and Bruce Springsteen, each with 11. Eminem is tied with West with ten chart-topping albums.
