Kanye West first released his seventh studio album The Life of Pablo in February, and then followed up with an updated version in April. The album, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, features hits “Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 1” and “Pt. 2.”

While Kanye West just announced his upcoming tour on Tuesday, he has been teasing the possibility of a tour for a while now. According to Entertainment Weekly, Kanye spoke to Steve Harvey on The Steve Harvey Morning Show in May, and suggested he had been tossing ideas around for a tour.

“We’re going to go out in September,” Kanye told Steve. “We’re just working on some ideas right now. My tour game is strong. My tour game is unprecedented…. I’m trying to literally inspire these kids the way Disney inspired me when I first saw the original Star Wars.”

Along with Kanye’s comments, a source also spoke to EW and confirmed that West was indeed working on a tour.

“There are serious talks of a tour,” the source said. “Of course there’s demand. He definitely sells tickets.”

Kanye West’s last tour took place in 2013 to support his Yeezus album; Kendrick Lamar and Pusha T were among many performers who appeared as special guests.
