Check out what Kanye said about trying to find the right album title on the next page…

Appearing on the “Ellen” show in January, Kanye revealed he did not have a title nailed down to the upcoming release.

“We’re still trying to find it, trying to find the vibe,” he says. “You know, this transition from what I felt when I did Yeezus, to what I feel now. We’re just creating, so we haven’t found it yet.” (“The Ellen Show”)

Recent reports claimed there was no truth to Paul McCartney album rumors.

A few weeks ago, actor Seth Rogen dished out details about Mr. West inviting him and his wife into a limousine van to treat them to a live performance of his next album.

“It was one of the most surreal experiences of my entire life,” Rogen explained in an interview with media mogul Howard Stern. “We had just come out with the ‘Bound 3’ parody video about three months earlier — I heard someone behind me go, ‘Yo!’ and it was Kanye West. … He’s always been incredibly f*cking cool to me and he’s a big comedy fan — he was like, ‘You want to hear some of my new sh*t now?’ I was like, ‘Yeah!’ … He’s like, ‘This is my new album, I’m still working on it, it’s not going to come out for awhile. This is still an unreleased album. It hasn’t come out yet and he starts clicking through the tracks and there’s no lyrics. It’s just the beats and the hook so he literally just stands up and starts rapping the whole [album]. He’s standing and jumping around! … We were like this is the greatest f*cking thing that’s happened.” (“The Howard Stern Show”)
