“Facts” celebrates Kanye’s Adidas Yeezy Boost line and denounces his affiliation with competitor Nike. It appears that the track is simply a spur of the moment recording. Considering the topical content, most fans have cited this as a fun track to start off the new year. The first version was produced by Metro Boomin and Southside and was released exclusively through Kanye’s SoundCloud page.
The song’s artwork, featuring a leaping Kanye wearing Adidas' Ultra Boosts, was taken by a fan, Talia Azadian during his performance at Powerhouse LA 2015. The image is highly reminiscent of the classic Jordan logo.
During the live presentation of Yeezy Season 3 and "The Life of Pablo" at the Madison Square Garden on February 11th, Kanye premiered an alternative mix of the song, featuring re-recorded vocals and production by Charlie Heat. This is the version that features on the album.
“Facts (Charlie Heat Version)” was certified gold by the RIAA on February 27, 2020.
