Is Kanye planning to ditch music for fashion?

by

Kanye "I'mma let you finish" West is definitely a huge fan of the spotlight, but rumour has it he may be making a move away from music.

The rapper has always had some fashion-related side projects on the go, but now he's apparently decided to put stardom on the back burner for a while and focus completely on his career as a designer.

"After his next [collaboration] with Paul McCartney comes out, he's going to step away from music and concentrate on clothing," a source told Page Six.

Although he is best known as a musician, Kanye has actually had a pretty profitable career in fashion, including his collection for French fashion house APC which sold out in less than a day. The star's most recent style project was a range of footwear for Nike, but he has since signed with the company's biggest rival, Adidas. Controversial!

Despite making a multi-million dollar deal, Kanye has had to put things with Adidas on hold due to musical commitments, so now he's decided it's time to make a decision about where his real interests lie. "He got a $15 million signing bonus from Adidas, but his line has been pushed back four times because he hasn't had enough time to work on it," said the insider.

So does this mean no more sexy motorbike videos with Kim K? Well, we can't say we're TOO devastated about that…
