Kanye West says he will release a new piece of music every week between now and Christmas.

Dubbed by the rapper as 'Good Fridays', he will give fans an original track or remix at the end of each week.

Writing on his Twitter, West said: "Y'all know every Friday y'all gone have a new joint from our family. We look at the game completely different now.

"It's about the fans. No more holding back."

West has already 'leaked' a remix of his latest single Power and a new track featuring Beyonce called See Me Now.

The rapper-singer has also confirmed his forthcoming fifth album will be released on 16 November in the US.

He is currently in the studio working on material with collaborators Swizz Beats, Mos Def and Raekwon.

West is set to play at MTV's Video Music Awards on 12 September.
