Rich The Kid is gearing up to release the follow-up to "The World Is Yours."

As he did with The World Is Yours, Rich The Kid is making bold claims with his sophomore release. The rapper's been teasing the follow-up to his major label debut for the past few months, and it feels like it could possibly arrive before the end of the year. In anticipation for its release, the rapper believes that his upcoming will be astronomically better than Kanye West's upcoming release.

While we've been waiting for the release of Kanye West's Yandhi, Rich The Kid already thinks that his album will be "100x better" than whatever 'Ye puts out on his upcoming opus.

"Kanye West is cool but my album will be 100 times better," he wrote on Twitter.

This claim isn't exactly out of the ordinary for Rich The Kid. A few weeks ago, the rapper confirmed that he completed his project and referred to it as "the album of the century."

On Sunday, Rich The Kid shared a short trailer to build the hype for his forthcoming album. The clip also featured a snippet of a new song that we could expect to feature on his sophomore release.
