Kanye West has been making non-stop headlines since he came out of his self-imposed exile. The rapper is hard at work on his next album, Dark Twisted Fantasy, due out on November 16.
The Grammy Award winner recently talked about who he wanted to work with on the new album. He commented: "People with that intangible sound. People that everybody copied. The originators. That’s what my thing is: quality. What is the best of the best?"
Beyoncé is at the top of that list. West will team up with Miss. B on the song See Me Now. It is reportedly about his late mother Donda. The list of other artists also working with West is a who’s who of today’s top stars, including Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, Drake, Nicky Minaj from Young Money and Eminem.
West had high praise for newcomer Nicky Minaj. He predicted to New York radio station Hot FM: "This is gonna be such a big statement, and such a big thing to fill: The scariest artist right now is definitely Nicki Minaj. I think she has the most potential to be the number-two rapper of all time. Nobody’s gonna be bigger than Eminem."
