Kanye West confirms joint album with rapper Drake

RAP superstar-come-designer Kanye West has confirmed that he and fellow artist Drake are "working on a bunch of music together", confirming weeks of speculation about a budding collaboration between the two.

The reveal, as part of a pre-NYFW interview with fashion tome Vogue, also included confirmation from West that a children's clothing line is in the works with his wife Kim Kardashian, and further details on retail outlets dedicated to his "Yeezy" concept, still set to launch.

West added that he and Drake are "working on an album, so there's some exciting things coming up soon", marking the first public nod to the joint project.

The pair have previously worked together, with Drake co-writing "30 Hours" on West's recent album release, titled "The Life Of Pablo".
