Kanye West's Yeezus dropped yesterday through Def Jam. A partial list of contributors has long been rumored and confirmed-- Daft Punk, Bon Iver's Justin Vernon, Chief Keef, Hudson Mohawke, Travi$ Scott, Arca, Evian Christ, etc. But now, the credits are finally listed on Kanye's website, and they're even longer than you might have imagined.

You can sift through the full list here, which contains some unexpected things: M.I.A.'s ex/musician/Seagram's heir Ben Bronfman is credited on "New Slaves". Kanye's "Jesus Walks" collaborator Che Smith, aka Rhymefest, worked on several tracks. And no, sorry, there is no Marilyn Manson sample on "Black Skinhead".

Watch Kanye's new American Psycho-themed short film, starring Scott Disick and Jonathan Cheban:

Former Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr tells NME that, in addition to the massive Smiths box set released in 2011, he wanted to put out another box set, collecting the band's rarities and instrumental tracks. But that hasn't seen the light of day because of "record label politics", he says.

"When I started putting the Smiths box set together I discovered lots of different versions and instrumentals and different mixes that I wanted to put out. But I was stopped," he said. "I think that stuff should come out properly but there were politics that stopped me so I just gave up trying."

He added, "What I'm talking about is these bootlegs of instrumentals and alternative versions. I wanted them to come out properly. But someone, somewhere didn't want it out. I think that's a shame. I'm a fan and I like that stuff to be done properly. I really tried to protect the legacy." 

Watch Johnny Marr tell the story behind the Smiths song "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now" and perform it for the first time in about 25 years:

Drake ft. James Fauntleroy: "On My Way" on SoundCloud.

Here's another track that may or may not make Drake's forthcoming album, Nothing Was the Same, due later this summer: "On My Way" is apparently an older song, reports Prefix, given new life with vocal harmonies from James Fauntleroy of production stable the Y's. The pair also worked together on "Girls Love Beyoncé".
