The rapper announced via Twitter that the record, which had been titled SWISH since last May, is now called WAVES .
The news comes days after West shared the track list for what he referred to as 'the best album of all time' - which he has since reposted to Twitter with some reworkings.
West initially announced that his follow-up to 2013's Yeezus would be titled So Help Me God, before deciding to change to SWISH; the reason behind the title change is not yet known but we suppose it could be a simple case of Kanye being Kanye.
Not missing an opportunity to capitalise on this event were American rock band Wavves who contributed the below tweet.
Waves will be released on 11 February. It will feature the tracks "Good Friends" and his Kendrick Lamar collaboration "No More Parties in LA."
