Kanye West is back and promising bigger and better things than ever before on his new album.
The 32-year-old hip-hop king took to his blog and told fans to expect his next disc to combine devastatingly honest lyrics with beats to tickle your toes.
He wrote: "I'm so happy to be back in the studio making new music. I will bring you the best I have to offer...
"It's funny how so many rappers get worse as their careers stretch out but true poets get better. We will follow in the footsteps of (author) Maya Angelou, Gil Scott-Heron and Nina Simone.
"Their work improved with time. They documented what was happening in culture. That is our responsibility as the modern day artists and poets... So when the powers that be try to rewrite history you can always look at our works and find truth and sincerity."
The brainy rapper added: "Let us look past headlines and deal with just a bit of reality in this new decade... We have our own outlets now. We don't have to believe everything anymore. Now I'll figure out a way to make that rhyme. LOL!!!"
Now, no more about Taylor Swift, people. Kannerz has well and truly done in his time.
Welcome back, dude...
Ok, I know we said no more about Taylor... but lets see it one more time.
