Kanye West, whose new album is entitled 'So Help Me God', has been doing an online course in theology and religion and he is deadly serious about joining the clergy.
A friend close to the 'Stronger' hitmaker said that the rapper is smiling a lot and thinks becoming a reverend will bring him closer to God, the Daily Star reported.
The rapper's pal continued that in the past year or two West had become something of a born-again Christian as he used to go to church all the time as a kid but he lapsed badly as he got older.
One source added that the 37-year-old rapper was even considering a gospel-themed album.
