Me either.

Unless HE decided it would be banned anyway. So if it is, what's gonna be the alternative cover?

are you both kidding? there's no chance in hell that a front cover featuring an ass and a tit will be released in any american music store ...

sad, but true...

okay... I saw amazon had this as the

artwork for "Power" as well

but I figured it was just the digital download

like some of the singles from his previous albums

have the actual album cover for the artwork

when I heard the big controversy this morning

I was thinking it was about THIS art & not the one posted

Ya, I'm a little confused here...why do I get the feeling he's making an assumption that it would be banned...although, I'm not sure why he would assume that.

Especially since he's the one that posted it on his Twitter.

He needs ta stop the 1990's banned theme..thats so old..stuff does not get banned anymore.

I see there are still a lot of dumb folks still posting about Ye

I think it looks absolutely hilarious, in a fucked up way, but that's what makes it so hilarious to me.

and it also got people talking which is classic Kanye.

There's a real vinyl 12" single for "Power" (with that art).

Looks like Kanye is trying to ape Jane's Addiction.

I remembered when that used to be dangerous. Remember the Black Crowes' original cover for "Amorica"? lol

Walmart is the only place that has banned the CD so far.

Kanye.....Kanye.....Kanye! = Arsewank.....Arsewank.....Arsewank.

Me too. Much better/more adventurous than the tame Graduation material. But who knows how the album will sound.

They always had a huge share of CDs sold, in America.

Now that no one sells CDs, who cares
