New Kanye West material could be hitting stores very soon.

According to Billboard.com, the rapper’s management says Kanye West is planning to release his fourth album toward the end of the year.

Although no official title has been confirmed, West previously referred to the record as “Good Ass Job.” The title would follow in the theme of his previous albums, which were named “College Dropout,” “Late Registration” and “Graduation.”

Recently, the Chicago-based artist has been performing a new track called “Love Lockdown,” which is rumoured to be his first single off the new album and may appear on iTunes in the coming days.

Having just been added to the lineup at this year’s MTV Video Music Awards, there’s speculation he will perform that track when he closes the ceremony in Los Angeles on Sunday (Sept. 7).

West is also currently working on Jay-Z’s upcoming album, “Blueprint III.”

According to Nielsen SoundScan, West’s previous record, “Graduation,” has sold 2.2 million copies in the U.S. since its release in September of last year.
