Kanye West has said he is finding it hard to believe that he is recording an album with Jay-Z.

The record, tentatively entitled ‘Watch The Throne’, was originally meant to be an EP, but has been extended to a full album.

In an post on Twitter, West said: “Sitting here in the studio 2 hours out of London, it's really setting in on me that I'm actually doing a rap album with Jay-Z.

“The bates (sic) and raps are stuuuuuuupid already!!! 1 song down... on to the next!!! I was in the audience at the Hard Knock Life Tour!!!!!!”

West, who produced Jay-Z’s ‘The Blueprint’, added that their songs were “so modern so hood so club so hip hop”.

The album has yet to be given a release date.

Meanwhile, West release’s his new solo album ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’ on November 22.
