Following in the footsteps of Ludacris, Eminem and 50 Cent, Kanye West is the latest rapper to dip his toes into movies. But he’s not planning any shop-worn dramatised biopic, oh no.

The College Dropout is crafting a “multiperspective portrait” of the United States as seen through his eyes. He’s getting together six writers and around 10-12 directors to work on short stories that will be linked by a central story. He’ll appear in the film and produce some new music for it.
