[AnbaLeumas]

I still need to cop Cruel Summer.

 

[Jo Shishido's Cheeks]

Well, Yeezus cover is different because he wants people to make a cover themselves, but yeah. Full PR image:

What are you supposed to 'add your own graffiti' too? The plastic? The piece of red tape?

At least provide extra materials for us to get busy with like the album you're jocking:

 

[esai]

the melted gold face gonna show up in the dark. makes sense too because the OG cover wasn't on a booklet the face was on the actual plastic

quote me on the 18th

 

[Ashhong]

I hope he's just trolling all of us and when we go to the store shelves to buy it it has fucking amazing artwork.

HOW CAN YOU SELL A CD WITH NO FUCKING BOOKLET OR CD ART?!

Someone is going to think it's a goddamn blank CD.

 

[PG2G]

I wonder what its gonna look like in iTunes

 

[Apoc87]

No riff raff, no buy.

I wanted it to actually twist as you moved it around.

Dope as fuck if so though. Gonna update OP with the new (or lack of?) art soon.

EDIT: YO THAT BOUND TEASER, GODDAMN

EDIT2: Jay Pharoah talks Kanye.

Lyrics to I Am A God according to him:

I Am A God
Gimme the keys to my garage
Bitch where's my menage?
Bitch where's my massage?
I Am A God

Kanye didn't want to do sketches. Kanye did his sound check 5 hours early.

 

[Ashhong]

Was watching VH1 storytellers earlier. Holy shit what a performance. It's this down to earth and mostly humble, artistic kanye that I fell in love with. This is why I put up with whatever stupid arrogant shit he does, because I know he had this persona underneath it all. It's amazing. I would have paid so much money to be there.

Anybody remember the MTV special he did that was similar? I think it was for LR. Can't remember the name...I think it was MTV...

Ah that's right, thanks. That was amazing too. I remember him doing roses I think. So good

Mos Def and System of a Down have both done it.

 

[enzo_gt]

Lmao @ this custom cover at KTT

I really want to see what people come up with though. You don't need a cover for fan covers to pop up but the cult of Kanye is so huge and generally full of artistic types, I'm curious what will come of this.

 

[Rastafarian42]

Black Skinhead gets me so fucking HYPE.

 

[billy beane]

:13 snippets shouldn't be getting me this excited.

I wonder what I'll end up using as the cover art.

 

[ShineALight]

That is too good.

What the fuck. Is that actually a dope soul sample in that snippet? In a 2013 Kanye West song? Almost too good to be true.

I bet after the "Uh huh honey" there's going to be a big ass drop and beat change.

So I guess Kanye apologized to Sway?

Thank you based TV.

 

[IrishNinja]

Reminds me of what the black album was originally meant to be.

No promotion, singles, videos or cover.

for real? given how that's one of jay's finest that would've been pretty badass

Yep but Hov's a pussy.

well yeah, also this

No riff raff, no buy.

this post should be banned like riff raff

 

[Ken Masters]

That would be pretty cool

 

[Slayer-33]

Fucking hype for this shit

That cover is severely disappointing. I will probably still buy it.

I think Whoo Kid has the CDQ.

 

[CrashBandicoot]

Man if that was real electrical tape or whatever it'd be pretty cool. I dunno if I like the way he's going with this album though, it seems a little heavy and industrial - but maybe that's just from the quality of the SNL recordings I've listened too I do miss happy Kanye, but when he's made changes to his musical style in previous albums he hasn't disappointed (even the autotune phase), so I trust him to do fine.

 

[Ashhong]

soooo wheres that new slaves CDQ...
