In 2023, Kanye West has made more headlines for his travel expeditions than his music so far. From Japan to Italy, then Ireland, and back to the USA, the ‘Donda’ rapper seems to be rivaling Pitbull for the title of Mr. International. Now the unfolding saga of what looks to be a standout year for his enthusiasts has converged in Saudi Arabia. Since the beginning of this month, the rapper has been popping up in random spots in the Middle Eastern country. Recently, his meet-up with Lil Durk caught fans’ attention. 

Now another image of Ye’s adventures has surfaced online.

In his latest appearance, Ye seemed to have crossed paths with a fan who was lucky enough to run into him. Earlier today, an image of the ‘Gold Digger’ rapper’s run-in with the fan appeared on X (previously Twitter). In the picture, West stared straight into the camera with his signature straight-faced grave expression. Meanwhile, the caption explained that this run-in occurred in Al-‘Ula where the rapper is believed to have set up his studio. 

Earlier, the rapper was also captured in some clicks as he laid back in the midst of the vast Arabian desert surrounded by a sci-fi-like ambiance. Apparently, the 46-year-old has conjured up a space to work on his music in the ancient town of Al-‘Ula. It is safe to say that lately his fans have been very intrigued by what the rapper is up to in the Medina Province.

Well, Lil Durk’s recent appearance there may just answer those questions. 

What is Ye doing with Lil Durk?

After weeks of talks regarding Ye’s collaboration with Ty Dolla $ign, another player has entered the arena. While everybody was anticipating West’s collaboration with him to drop soon, Lil Durk swooped in to steal the spotlight. When the ‘All My Life’ singer appeared in Ye’s current country of residence according to his Instagram story, fans went wild with curiosity. Many wondered if the two were joining hands on a project too. 

Whether that is really the case, only time will tell. Meanwhile, his loyal fans cannot help but spin theories of what is up with the 46-year-old. Especially considering that he arrived in Saudi Arabia accompanied by his entire studio crew. So, it is likely that he could be producing music with fellow artists while there. Amidst the updates from his desert soirées, fans continue to eagerly anticipate Ye’s forthcoming album.
