Rapper Kanye West has previously announced that he's the "biggest rock star in the world" so obviously, when he tweeted a mysterious countdown on new website, Yeezy Supply this week, people were going to be a little bit confused.
Kanye is hardly a regular tweeter, so this countdown clock must be counting down to something incredibly special - however, what could it be? The obvious thing would be a new album, however, there is speculation that the countdown could actually be related to a live show that's going to launch the No Church In The Wild rapper's new Adidas range. The clock is timed to run out on February 12th, which is coincidentally the week of New York Fashion Week.
And with Kanye previously telling Zane Lowe in THAT Radio 1 interview: "no-one can say that I don't know how to design a guy's sneaker," sources have now gone into overdrive with the fact that this is defintiely going to be what the rapper's big surprise is.

Whilst fans wait patiently for the follow-up album to Yeezus' 2013 release, that's been teased for well over a month now, a new version of the rapper's All Day has also emerged online. However, it's far from the official release, with the sound quality being ridiculously poor, to put it politely. The new rendition of the track features up and coming Houston rapper, Travi$ Scott.
This isn't the first that we've heard of All Day, with Kanye first teasing the track last July, hinting that it could have actually been released as a single by mid-August. West said that he'd been channelling Jay-Z's music style, telling GQ: "[T]he balance of a meal is that when people walk in, they want water first. People definitely weren't getting water first on Yeezus. I do fight with myself to say, 'Keep fighting.' But also, you know, you can't win every single fight. It's a long war, and if you're out there trying to, like, blow up every single building, you won't win the war." As always, a man of many words.

All day is rumoured to be the title track for the new album, that's thought to be called Paris, and rumoured to be out before November.
Kanye is also set to perform brand new single FourFiveSeconds alongside Rihanna and Paul McCartney at this weekend's Grammy Awards. They're joining an epic line-up that includes Sam Smith, Beyonce and Ed Sheeran.
