The journey of Kanye West's song "Wolves" is one of the most interesting of his career. The song was first debuted during the Yeezy Season 1 fashion show and he then performed the original version of the track with Sia and Vic Mensa​ at the Saturday Night Live 40th anniversary show a year ago. Since then, fans begged for the official studio version of the song, but nothing popped up until it was included on Kanye's new album, The Life of Pablo, though Sia and Vic were no longer on it. Instead, Frank Ocean was a featured guest and Kanye added verses that weren't on the OG version.

After the album came out, Kanye said he was going to "fix" the song, and now we may have what he was talking about. A new version of the song may have just surfaced online, and for the first time it appears that we have the studio quality vocals from Sia and Vic. Frank Ocean's part is still included on this version, but his verse is at the beginning instead of the end like on the album. The only thing that appears to be missing is Kanye's verse that was featured on the actual project. It's unclear how this version made its way online, but it seems to be the real deal. Since Kanye has been tweeting up a storm lately, it seems like a good bet that he will probably address the leak at some point. You can listen to the latest version of "Wolves" here.
