Kanye began his performance laying down and staring up at the camera, with very dim lighting in a white box of sorts. Kanye started off performing “Jesus Walks,” before finally making his way to his feet for a rendition of “Only One.”

After giving a performance of two songs fans were familiar with, Kanye performed the new song “Wolves,” featurign Vic Mensa and Sia, who were both on stage with the artist. Kanye West first unveiled the song during his fashion show that unveiled the adidas Yeezy shoe, and Sunday’s performance on SNL 40 was the first televised performance of the song.

It was a haunting track, while the vocals from Sia and Vic Mensa were chilling and it combined for a perfect sound.

For an isolated version of Kanye’s “Wolves” performance, check out the video below.

When people first got a taste of “Wolves” a few days ago, the audio made its way to the Internet and people were excited for a full version and performance of the song. Now that we have heard the live performance, it is safe to say the track delivers.
