Tonight, Kanye West has proven himself an innovator in the art of the album launch. He unveiled a new song and video via projections on buildings across the world. Above is what was projected at the corner of Bedford and N. 7 in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. According to Rap-Up, the song premiered is called "New Slaves". Check out video below.

Kanye's website has posted a map of the world, indicating where actions will take place throughout the night in cities throughout the world. Sixty-six projections are involved in the launch.

The track will be on the follow-up to 2010's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.

After tonight's events, we can only imagine what kind of Kanye-isms he's got cooked up for his "Saturday Night Live" performance tomorrow night.
