Having been renewed for a fourth season, the creators of Rick and Morty have revealed they would offer Kanye West his own episode.

Kanye West has already revealed he's a big Rick and Morty fan. Last year, when the show was renewed for 70 more episodes, Kanye West expressed his excitement, "This is the greatest news. This is my favourite show. I’ve seen every episode at least five times each."

The Rick and Morty creators, Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon, revealed to The Blast that Kanye West has an "open invitation" to work on the show.

Adding more about West, Roiland said, "We fucking love Kanye, man. He’s a kindred spirit. If that guy had the support to do all the ideas he has in his head, it would be Elon Musk 2.0."

Harmon took their mutual respect for the rapper slightly further, and confirmed an episode there and then, "I’m giving him an episode, I’m making it official. We have 70, he can have one. Kanye, you can have an episode."

Kanye West is currently working on another tv series called Omniverse. Multiple reports suggest Jaden Smith will play a young Kanye West - who is excutive producing the series - and the series will explore the theme of ego.
