It sounds like Kanye West has something big up his sleeve—"something bigger than music."

During a recent interview with Zane Lowe, French Montana shared some vague, but intriguing, information about Mr. West's plans. The comments were made amid growing anticipation for Kanye's Yandhi album, which has been postponed indefinitely.

"He's working on something that's so crazy. I think he's working on something bigger than music," French told Lowe on Beats 1 radio. "When I went to go see him, he showed me something that was so crazy. But, that's what make people like him stand out, because he always think outside the box—really outside the box. Shout out to Kanye."

French continued: "I just see that [Kanye is] trying to do something that's going to change the world. Whether it's something to help the people, or something like ... I feel like he's going to touch something that's going to change everybody's life."

Bold statements.

French also gave some insight into Kanye's new musical direction, suggesting the tunes will be much more spiritual than Ye's previous work.

"[...] The whole time I'm with him, he's telling me about the church and he's telling me about what his direction with the music is going," French recalled. "The whole time he's like, 'I'm thinking about doing this. All right? You know. I'm in that spirit. You know?' So I play him a couple records. I played a record called 'Wiggle It.' When the record stopped, he said, 'What you doing with that record'" I said, 'My God. I thought you was going towards Jesus.' This is across the street right here."
