Fans just aren't willing to wait for Kanye West's new album to drop.

So much so that one eager person started a White House petition demanding that Barack Obama force an early release of the rapper's upcoming Swish record.

It may sound like desperate measures but the petition managed to rack up tens of thousands of signatures in a short space of time.

The document read: "Kanye West has kept us thirsty for too long. We haven’t gotten any new singles in months.

"The President should order Ye to drop the album on the date August, 21st as his producer Mike Dean has been teasing people about."

Sadly, it appears that those who signed the petition are just going to have to wait after it was removed for violating the terms of participation.

However had it managed to accumulate more than 100,000 signatures - which it was on its way to doing - then the president and his administration would have had to give it some thought.

We're sure Kanye would have loved that.

The rapper has everyone pining for the new record after teasing them with tracks throughout the year.

Already he's released the singles Only One and Four Five Seconds to much critical acclaim.

However the dad-of-one is yet to confirm when fans can expect his entire work to drop.

His last album, Yeezus, was released in June 2013 and shot to number one around the world.

Maybe Barack Obama could make a compromise with Kanye in order to get the record released early.

The politician could no doubt assist Kanye in getting a no-flying zone approved over his house.

According to reports, the 38-year-old wants planes to stop flying above his mansion in the Hidden Hills.

The All Day hitmaker has allegedly put together his own petition so he can protect his wife Kim Kardashian and daughter North.
