Kanye West, the influential rapper and hip-hop mogul, has long not made his presence felt. The singer who is currently on a flash tour of the world along with his wife, Bianca Censori, has kept fans anticipating. Amidst no confirmation from West himself about his next album following ‘Donda’, fans have to unearth information by themselves. As such, one striking ray of light was seen recently when CyHi the Prynce was spotted in Italy, mere days after the rapper.

The photos have added fuel to the fire as CyHi is a long-time associate of West and had also collaborated with him on ‘Donda’. Thus, there could be a new album on the cards soon.

Rapper and singer CyHi the Prynce has frequently collaborated with Kanye West or Ye, as he goes by, on many occasions. The singer co-wrote ‘All Day’ and ‘Father Stretch My Hands’ along with Ye. Thus, the latest photo circulating on the Internet which shows CyHi photographed in a bar in Italy lays credence to the many rumors that other rappers have claimed about West soon launching his next album after ‘Donda’.

For a long period, earlier this year, West had accommodated himself in Japan along with his wife. While they were spotted on many occasions, including enjoying cozy meals together, the focus remained on Ye, dropping any hint of new music. Eventually, there were claims and rumors that West had collaborated with local artists and was ready to release some new music.

However, weeks have passed and the rapper himself has since moved to Italy, but nothing substantial has come of it. Yet now, CyHi’s presence has led many to believe that the rapper will now be working with his long-time collaborator to fine-tune the details of his album and thus a launch could be imminent. Nonetheless, only time shall tell. But said time is ticking and the ‘Donda’ album is losing steam.

Once a mentor, Ye’s musical dominance is under threat by his own apprentices

While Kanye West lets off some steam in Italy, his fellow music mates are busy pumping up the beats. Notably, Travis Scott, who happens to be a massive admirer of Kanye West, is taking him head-on. Scott released his album, ‘Utopia’, which has gone on to be very well received. Even to the point of threatening Ye’s record of staying number one. Although West’s ‘Donda’ still has a presence on the charts, it could be very short-lived.
