Last night Kanye West took a break from waxing philosophical on Twitter to announce four new records - two of them his own.
He's got a seven-track solo record coming on 1 June, and then a full-length with Kid Cudi a week later - it's called Kids See Ghost and that's the banner they're releasing under too.
The album will be Kanye's first since 2016's The Life Of Pablo - although he's announced Cruel Winter and Turbo Grafx 16 records in the time since (neither actually arrived).
