Kanye West is to release a book next year, entitled "Thank You and You're Welcome!".
The hip hop superstar announced plans for his literary debut on his blog, after compiling the collection of written thoughts with Sakiya Sandifer.
The book is described as an "entertaining volume of 'Kanye-isms' - the creative, humorous and insightful philosophies and anecdotes used in creating my path to success.
"It captures the same wit, playful irony and piercing insight found abundant in my lyrics," he says at www.kanyeunivercity.com.
"In 'Thank You And You're Welcome!' I deliver my personal message uncensored, without any five-second delay or media distortion", explained the rapper.
