Kanye West working on next album, promises Jay-Z collaboration again
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 25 January 2011
Kanye West has announced that he is about to begin work on his next album, the follow-up to ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’, which was only released in November last year. He’s also promised that ‘Watch The Throne’, his collaborative album with Jay-Z, will be released in two months time.
Forgetting that he’s not actually been away, West tweeted last week: “I’ll be back this summer! In the studio now with the Bears [American football] game on. ‘Watch The Throne’ coming in two months! My new album coming this summer”.
Well, that’s basically what he said, except he used more capitals and exclamation marks!!!!!!!!!!! He finished by describing some of the new music he’s working on, with what may be my favourite quote of 2011 so far: “This is high end rap music. I just threw some bassoon on this muthafucka”.
