Kanye West has tweeted a photo of Justin Bieber complete with a caption that suggests the pair are working on a project. 

Earlier today, the 'Gold Digger' star simply wrote to his followers:

"My new beat protege"

Accompanying the exciting message was a picture of Bieber working in a recording studio from an Apple computer. This won't be the first time that the two have collaborated after West produced a remixed version of 'Runaway Love' for Bieber's new 'Never Say Never - The Remixes' album, which was released on Valentine's Day this year.
