Soulja Boy 'working on new Kanye West LP'

Soulja Boy has revealed that he has been working with Kanye West on his latest album.

The teen rapper said that he recently befriended the 'Welcome To Heartbreak' star and that the pair have since recorded several tracks together.

He told MTV News: "When I was in the studio, I played him a couple of joints, and then he just said, 'Damn, he's really starting to go hard'. And I was like, 'Yeah, you feel me?' Out of all the artists to get the go-ahead or the co-sign from, it was Kanye.

"Me working with him, collaborating on different beats. Him showing me a lot of stuff I didn't know. Me showing him a lot of stuff he didn't know. He had an ear for my sound. Of course I had an ear for all the stuff he did. Genius! You know what I mean?"
