Kanye West compares himself to artist Pablo Picasso in his hit single No More Parties in L.A. featuring Kendrick Lamar.

The 38-year-old rapper perhaps drew inspiration from the lyrics when he chose the songs and the third - and hopefully last - title for his seventh studio album coming out on Friday.

Kanye took to Twitter to reveal the 'final track list' and meaning behind the abbreviated title T.L.O.P., which is 'The Life of Pablo.'

Feeling Picasso: Kanye West took to Twitter on Wednesday night to reveal his new album's 'final track list' and the meaning behind its third - and hopefully last - title T.L.O.P. which stands for The Life of Pablo

The track list included Ultra Light Beam, Famous, Fade, Real Friends and Wolves, but not the song that he worked on with fellow rapper Kendrick.

Kanye obviously thought he had something in common with Picasso, who was famous for his cubist works, as Variety reported.

'I feel like Pablo when I’m workin’ on my shoes / I feel like Pablo when I see me on the news / I feel like Pablo when I’m workin’ on my house,' Kanye chants.

Missing link: Kanye's new track list doesn't include No More Parties in L.A. (featuring Kendrick Lamar) in which the rapper compares himself to Pablo Picasso

The first title was called SWISH before it was changed to Waves, which incited a Twitter spat with Wiz Khalifa who felt it dishonoured fellow rapper Max B.

Kanye's previous album Yeezus soared to No. 1 on the U.S. charts in 2013 and received rave reviews from the critics.

The Twitter announcement comes during a busy week for the rapper-fashion designer who will unveil his season three collection during New York Fashion Week.

West tweeted earlier on Wednesday an odd request to his 18.5 million followers, most of whom surely do not have access to his private phone number.

'Please no one text me or ask me for anything till Monday,' the rapper wrote.

* PRICES MAY NOT BE AS ADVERTISED

...NOW GET A PAIR LIKE THEM!

While it may have been in response to the backlash he received for tweeting 'BILL COSBY INNOCENT !!!!!!!!' the night before' it is unlikely.

The rapper, who is famously slow to reflect on his public behavior, appeared to be indicating just how busy his schedule is with the upcoming release of his new album Waves, his appearance this weekend on SNL, and the start of New York Fashion Week.

The Yeezus hitmaker is obsessed with fashion and has gone on to create his own clothing line and a highly popular shoe brand, Yeezy.

After unleashing a blitzkrieg on Twitter the night before, the 38-year-old then pleaded for silence

Meanwhile: Kanye's wife Kim Kardashian was spotted out in NYC that same day dressed in a fur coat

Kanye will most likely be spending the weekend sitting front row at some of the biggest fashion shows at NYFW.

However the curious tweet about Cosby - put up on Tuesday night as part of a series of questionable posts - may just work against the rapper.

Within an hour, the tweet - 'BILL COSBY INNOCENT !!!!!!!!' - received 23,000 likes and over 21,000 re-tweets, however many of the responses slammed West as inappropriate and ill-founded.

Kanye once again ignited a twitter controversy on Tuesday by posting this message about Bill Cosby

Hitting back: Silverman was quick to respond to West's tweet, calling him out and standing up for Cosby's alleged victims

Leading the charge against the singer was comedian Sarah Silverman, who wrote online: 'Kanye!! You can't be for real. FIFTY WOMEN. With nothing to gain thanks to a statute of limitations ON RAPE. Oy.'

Scores of people quickly supported Silverman and tweeted similar responses at West.

West, who is set to perform on Saturday Night Live this weekend, also lashed out at his competitor Puma earlier in the day, over reports they were set to ink a new deal with sister-in-law Kylie Jenner.

One month ago, West mentioned Cosby in a song he released at New Years called Facts.

'Do anybody feel bad for Bill Cosby?' he rapped in the song.

'Did he forget the names just like Steve Harvey?'

West's tweet on Tuesday may have been in reaction to a defamation case filed against Cosby's lawyer that was dismissed on Tuesday.

The claim was brought by model Janice Dickinson against Cosby's lawyer Martin Singer, who publicly denied her allegations that the comedian had drugged and raped her in 1982.

However, Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Debre Katz Weintraub did not dismiss defamation allegations made against Cosby in the same lawsuit.
