Kanye West has kept in correspondence with American Psycho author Bret Easton Ellis following their American Psycho-themed promotional video for Yeezus. Ellis revealed to MTV that the two are currently working on a script for an unknown project, so don’t expect Yeezy season to end any time soon. The author also explained how their first collaboration happened:

I just got a text one day… it said, ‘It’s Kanye, do you have time to rap?’ And then suddenly my phone rang and someone said, ‘Kanye got your number and he wants you to write this promo for Yeezus.‘ And so we went back and forth on it and he wanted it done, like, that day.
