It seems multiple Grammy award-winning rapper Kanye West has his sights set on becoming the next Mick Jagger because we have learnt that the rap star is gunning for the title of the new king of rock 'n' roll.
Sources close to the Famous rapper claim that his team at Def Jam submitted Kanye for "Best Rock Song" and "Best Rock Performance" for his song Freeee (Ghost Town, Pt. 2" on which he features Kid Cudi for a Grammy. The song is one of 7 from the duo's Kids See Ghosts album.
It is further gathered that the submissions have already made it through the screening process and were sent out on the first round ballot to voters. If Kanye's submissions snag enough support in the first round, they will be nominated and up for the awards.
Admittedly, Kanye's Freeee sounds like a rock song, loaded with heavy drums and guitars with vocals from Cudi and Ty Dolla $ign.
As part of his quest for the greatest, Kanye has also been submitted for "Producer of the Year". This is coming after he did five albums in five weeks and his albums with Pusha T (Rap Album) and Teyana Taylor (R&B Album) are up for Grammys as well.
The father of three has been in the news a lot lately for a mix of negative and positive press ranging from his meeting with Trump to his visit to Uganda in Africa.
