Kanye West is reportedly planning to make a three-hour spoken word album to discuss “everything from his views on the environment to life with fianceé Kim Kardashian”.

According to The Sun, the rapper will make the recording available on vinyl, with a 24-hour special edition for download so that fans can “listen to his views around the clock”.

“Kanye loves the sound of his own voice and this will be the ultimate in self-indulgence. He has very strong views on everything from music and art to politics and the environment. He’s forever recording his opinions on tape. He says he’s doing it for posterity and thought about turning them into a book or even donating them to a museum,” said a source.

It’s also claimed that West is hoping the recording could bag him a Grammy.

“Kanye likes to push the boundaries and thinks this is very groundbreaking. He’s hoping it’ll win him a Grammy for Best Spoken Word Album.”
