Kanye West commandeered the DJ booth at a New York City nightclub on Saturday and reportedly sent the crowd into a frenzy when he surprised them with some of his new tracks, reports the New York Daily News.

The rapper was at Ph-D Rooftop Lounge with Leonardo DiCaprio and the actor’s girlfriend, lingerie model Erin Heatherton, when he decided to take control of the music.

According to the Daily News, West hooked up his laptop to the stereo system and played songs from his upcoming album “Cruel Summer,” which is due for release in September.

Fans were said to have been “in awe” after he played a new track tentatively titled “My Perfect B**ch,” believed to be about his girlfriend Kim Kardashian.

West ended his 45-minute set with his single “Way Too Cold,” (formerly known as “Theraflu”) which famously references Kardashian while swiping at her ex-husband, basketball player Kris Humphries.
