KANYE WEST has teamed up with Comedy Central to fuse puppets with hip-hop. According to The Hollywood Reporter, a half-hour pilot has just been shot for a project tentatively titled Alligator Boots.

The show, under consideration for 2009, would feature music produced and performed by Kanye and fellow MC RHYMFEST in addition to a constantly changing celebrity guest host spot, similar the original Muppet Show.

The show will be the second puppet-oriented product from Jackhole Productions, founded by ADAM CAROLLA, JIMMY KIMMEL, and DANIEL KELLISON, who were also behind Comedy Central's puppet prank call show Crank Yankers.
