Kanye West's new album, which could be released as early as next month, might see appearances from Odd Future and Skrillex.

Rolling Stone reports that members of Odd Future and producer Skrillex have been in the studio with Kanye, as well as Chicago MC Chief Keef and Daft Punk.

Daft Punk's Thomas Bangalter recently told the magazine that West's rapping was 'very raw' and primal on the new record, saying: "He was rapping - kind of screaming primally."

Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo added: "Kanye doesn't give a f**k."

Last week the rapper reactivated his Twitter account and simply posted "June Eighteen", with many suspecting that this is to be the album's release date, although Kanye hasn't confirmed this yet.

The tweet came not long after DJ Paul Rosenberg announced that the new album was done and that there had been a listening party at Def Jam, saying the new record is "dark, but really good."

The new record will be the rapper's sixth and a follow up to 2010's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.


Could Tyler, The Creator be appearing on Kanye's album?

Rapper 2 Chainz recently refused to divulge details on the new Kanye album, but insisted there was a treat in store for fans.

"You know I'm not going to tell you anything about that crazy-ass boy," he told the Huffington Post.

"Just know that Mr. West has some dope s**t on the way."
