14 DAY TRIAL // When he’s not busy planning to build his and Kim Kardashian’s church or holding lectures about how celebrities being hounded by the paparazzi are subject to the same kind of treatment as black people suffered in the ‘60s, Kanye West is working on new music. And he’s doing it with none other than Sir Paul McCartney.
That sounds like a surprising collaboration but Kanye is nothing if not surprising.
Page Six reports that the rapper and the former Beatle have been working on several tracks together “in secret,” and that they might even develop into a fully-fledged album. It doesn’t offer any specifics on when we might hear a sample of the tracks or when the album could come out, if at all.
However, there’s this: apparently, one track is already completed and it has a name that’s bound to generate some controversy.
“One song, tentatively titled ‘[Urinate] on My Grave,’ is sparking some chatter,” the report says. “West’s wife Kim Kardashian has been heard telling friends she was a little surprised they chose such a provocative name.”
If there’s one artist who can take controversy and make a fortune out of it, that’s definitely Kanye. Let’s not forget that his previous album was called “Yeezus,” a very un-subtle pun on his stage name, Yeezy, and Jesus. It also included a track named “I Am a God.”
Having him rap about peeing on graves would probably be the least scandalous thing he’s done in a while.
