YOUR FAVORITE MTV SHOWS ARE ON PARAMOUNT+

Here Are All 21 People Who Wrote And Produced On Kanye West's 'All Day'

Quite a crew.

Kanye West is an artist that values collaboration.

We've heard it his music, and we've heard about it, too -- like when he flew a who's who of artists out to Hawaii to help him work on his 2010 masterpiece, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.

Now, it seems like Yeezy is at it again.

Yesterday, the final version of his track "All Day" dropped, just days after he premiered it at the BRITs. Though it features Theophilus London, Allan Kingdom and Paul McCartney, and Velous and French Montana are the credited producers, way more people had a hand in this creation. A look at the official credits for the song, which Def Jam sent to MTV News, reveals an amalgam of 21 musicians whose work went into writing and producing the track.

Again, this isn't the first time Kanye has done this -- MBDTF's "All of the Lights" credited Rihanna, KiD CuDi, Tony Williams, The-Dream, Charlie Wilson, John Legend, Elly Jackson (La Roux), Alicia Keys, Elton John, Fergie, Ryan Leslie, Drake, Alvin Fields and Ken Lewis on additional vocals -- but it doesn't make the collection on "All Day" any less striking.

Meet the cast.

You know him, too. He was in the Beatles and has been working with 'Ye a bunch lately. That's him whistling at the end.

Did you see this one coming? Maybe they worked on this while they toured together last year? I wonder what K. Dot's specific contributions were.

Velous

French Montana is referenced with his real name in the credits (which is interesting, particularly, since Kendrick is credited as Kendrick Lamar rather than Kendrick Duckworth). In addition to a writing credit, French produced on the song.

Ernest Brown

The main thing I found with a quick google search was a former pro basketball player with this name. Maybe Yeezy had him around to help him exercise? We're going to need a little more time on this one.
