Kanye West is adding tracks about Saint West to his new album

Los Angeles - Kanye West is writing songs about his son.

The Bound 2 hitmaker's wife Kim Kardashian West only gave birth to the couple's first son, Saint, a week ago yet Kanye is already said to be getting some musical inspiration from the birth for his highly-anticipated album, Swish.

A source said: "The whole of Kanye's family thought Swish was done. He's been playing it to everyone.

"But Kanye is constantly coming up with new ideas and Saint's arrival has changed things once again. There's at least another two ideas for tracks to reflect his fatherly status."

And the 38-year-old rapper - who also has two-year-old daughter North with the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star - is reportedly enjoying being "very hands-on" with the newborn and the couple are said to feel "blessed" to have the little one after such a tough pregnancy.

The insider added to the Daily Star newspaper: "Kim and Kanye are very hands-on with the baby and want to be involved in the little things as much as possible.

"'They take turns waking up and tending to the baby's needs. It's a lot of work but they just feel very blessed for having a healthy baby boy."
