Kanye West's new album could finally be complete, according to New York hip-hop DJ Peter Rosenberg.

Speculation about Kanye's follow-up to 2010 album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy has been rising, following the announcement that the rapper will be appearing on the season finale of Saturday Night Live.

So far, all that's known about the record is that the first single will be titled 'I Am God', but the album's title still hasn't been announced.

Speaking on New York radio station Hot 97, Rosenberg said that the album is "done," and said that Kanye's label Def Jam had a "listening" last week for staff.

He went on to say that Def Jam people described the album as "dark but really good".

Listen to Rosenberg speaking about the album below:

Kanye apparently recorded the album in Paris, and it could feature a number of collaborators including Azealia Banks, Daft Punk and Chief Keef - who have all been rumoured to be involved.

2 Chainz recently told the Huffington Post, "I know he got some hot s**t and I can't wait. It's just time. Our conversations are always about making music better, about challenging each other. Just know that Mr. West has some dope s**t on the way."
