IKEA Responds To Kanye's Collaboration Request And Says It Could Make Him 'Famous'

Kanye has mentioned IKEA a few times in the past and on Monday night's Radio 1 interview with Annie Mac he brought up the Swedish home furnishing behemoth yet again.

During the interview he said: "I have to work with IKEA-make furniture for interior design, for architecture and I know that if I do a minimalist apartment inside of a college dorm where the TV goes on the side of the wall..."

At this point he was quite excited and as per usual it didn't make a great deal of sense. Regardless he continued: "Yo IKEA, allow Kanye to create, allow him to make this thing because you know what, I want a bed that he makes, I want a chair that he makes - I want more products from Ye."

Well, IKEA has caught wind of Ye's request and the company has responded. Whether or not it will allow 'Kanye to create' is another matter or the Swedish brand could just simply be paying the rapper-come-designer lip service.

IKEA Australia responded via a Facebook post which featured a mock-up furniture design branding a 'YEEZY' headline.

The post was captioned: "Hej Kanye, we'd love to see what you'd create... we could make you Famous!"

An obvious spin on Kanye's TLOP single 'Famous'.
