“Let’s make THAT convo happen. It’s a new year, new teeth, new stores, new watches, new whips and new convos,” Marcus’ comment read in the pic.

Kanye’s caption for the surprising post only included an emoji of two eyes looking forward, indicating it’s something he may be looking into. It didn’t take long for his fans to respond with questions and excitement about what he might be planning.

“YZY x JORDAN..?,” one fan asked while another wrote, “2022 year of collaborations let’s goooooo.” A third shared, “yeezy just jumped over jumpman” and a fourth pointed out the stars involved in the possible collab were “stronger together.” Since Kanye already has his Yeezy shoe brand with Adidas, teaming up with Nike would definitely be unexpected. The “Jesus Walks” creator and DJ Khaled recently spent time dancing and recording together in a studio and pics and videos were shown on the latter’s Instagram account. The DJ also danced so hard that he broke his Jordan sneakers, a memorable moment in the post.

There was also a video that showed DJ and Kanye riding around in a Rolls Royce while listening to Ye’s song “Can’t Tell Me Nothing.” When Kanye’s not getting attention for his teases about possible collaborations, he’s getting it for his highly-anticipated Netflix documentary, Jeen-Yuhs. He recently posted a photo that seemed to show the cover of the doc along with a caption that said he’s waiting on “final approval” before it gets released. “I’m going to say this kindly for the last time,” he started the caption. “I must get final edit and approval on this doc before it releases on Netflix. Open the edit room immediately so I can be in charge of my own image. Thank you in advance 😊”
