Kanye West is getting a lot of attention lately. Having already controversially announced his support for Donald Trump, he's now in the headlines for some strange reasons relating to his new album.

West shared a screenshot on Twitter over the weekend, in which it was revealed that he planned to use a photo of the plastic surgeon who operated on his mother the day before she died as the album cover.

The surgeon, Jan Adams, has since issued an open letter to the rapper, asking him to "cease and desist" using his photo as it was inappropriate.

'Lift Yourself', a song from the album, has also been attracting attention for its rather bizarre lyrics.

John Caddell and Nadine O'Regan discussed this and more in our weekly music slot.
