Kanye West is reportedly driving his record company crazy with last-minute changes to the album, bringing in a new producer on the scene and legal problems over his new album, 'Yeezus'.

Sources told the New York Post that the rapper brought in renowned producer Rick Rubin, just 2 weeks before the albums release, to help put down extra tracks for the record, while the Island Def Jam executives looked after the rights for a vocal he used on his song 'Onsite'.

The tabloid had earlier reported that West spent months recording in Paris and is till working on it, following the lukewarm response of the early releases.
