Trivia

Interesting facts about Fade. By Songfacts.

Kanye West debuted this song during his Yeezy Season 2 show at the New York Fashion Week on September 16, 2015. This isn't the first time the GOOD Music supremo has debuted music at his fashion show. In 2014, during his showing of Yeezy Season 1, West used the Sia-assisted track "Wolves."


The song features Ty Dolla $ign and Post Malone. Ty Dolla $ign reported to Billboard magazine his experience recording with West in Mexico when they churned out around eight tracks in September 2014. (Other tunes they laid down included the Paul McCartney collaboration "Only One"). "[In] like 24 hours, [we recorded] seven songs or nine songs that day. I was like, 'I'm here with Kanye, I'm not gonna waste my time.' They really wanted me to stay for like a week, but I only had like two days, 'cause I was about to start the [Under the Influence of Music] tour. He was open to my input, like, 'do whatever you want to do. Here's your mic. Do you need anything?' I'm like 'Awesome! Let's get it!' [We were] in Mexico, at this big house. The back of the house had no walls and no doors; it was just open [and facing] the ocean. You would think he would want the mic enclosed and all that but we just had the doors open, and it came out perfect. That inspired me to record like that at the crib."


Post Malone raps the second verse. He hooked up with Kanye West after Kylie Jenner invited him to perform at her 18th birthday party. Malone recalled in a Genius annotation: "I went in the studio with Kanye and we just recorded the scratch vocals and then I wrote over it. It just was a snippet that he liked and then he put it in. He was just a normal guy, like me, and super cool. He was wearing all camo, just all camo. He was very quiet and he was very, very humble. Me and Ty are cool. We are about to get in the studio and work, too."
