Kanye West hard at work on new album

Rapper Kanye West has urged his fans to leave him alone while he continues to work on his album "Swish".

In a couple of Twitter posts he shared over the weekend, West hinted that the album wasn't so far from being done, but he doesn't want his fans to ask him for "anything" before he is done with the recording, reports aceshowbiz.com.

"I'm finishing my album and my next collection. No offence to anyone... I'm asking everyone, don't ask me for anything till after I'm finished with my album," West wrote on Twitter.

At this rate, the "Only one" hitmaker will likely release "Swish" in 2016 though he's been teasing it for a year now.

The record has always garnered positive reviews from the selected few who got to listen to songs from the yet-to-be-finished record.

Earlier this month, G.O.O.D. Music's new president Pusha T described the album as "phenomenal" in an interview.

Around Thanksgiving Day, West played the project for his brother-in-law Lamar Odom, who said he "loved it."
