Rapper Kanye West and TV reality star and long time friend Kim Kardashian are dating, according to reports.

"Kim and Kanye have now just started dating," a source told People Magazine on Thursday.

A source told the magazine West, 34 and Kardashian, 31, are keeping things "light" but "seeing where it goes."

The couple went out to the movies and to a restaurant in New York City this week, according to TMZ.

The report comes as West releases his new song "Theraflu" where he confesses his love for her.

"I admit I fell in love with Kim ... 'Round the same time she fell in love with him ... That's cool, babygirl, do your thing ... Lucky I ain't had Jay drop him from the team." (Listen to the Song Here)

West was referring to Jay-Z who owns the New Jersey Nets where Kardashian's former husband Kris Humphries plays.

Kardashian recently ended her 72-days marriage to Humprhies.
