Wale Previews Kanye West Collaboration
MMG meets G.O.O.D. Music. During his trip to Paris earlier this month, Wale hit the studio with Kanye West to work on some new music. After tweeting about the experience, Wale took to Snapchat (@WaleEBM) on Friday night to tease their highly-anticipated collaboration (via HHNM).

According to the tracklisting, Kanye is not featured on Wale’s The Album About Nothing (due March 31), but the project does feature J. Cole, Usher, and SZA.
The D.C. native has also been named creative liaison for the Washington Wizards, and is speaking with Kanye about designing the team uniforms.
“I want to be a shot in the arm to D.C. basketball,” Wale told ESPN The Magazine. “My job is to provide a spark, at all costs. I’m not going to do anything corny, but I’m talking to Kanye about designing new uniforms.”
