I was thrilled to find out recently that Kanye West chose the above image for his new album, "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy." Unfortunately, the "powers that be," deemed this artwork too offensive and will not allow it to grace the cover of his new album.
It brings up an interesting question though. Why would Kanye even want this to be his cover art? Sure, it features a naked, winged chick with some type of dog's tail, but it also looks like it was painted by a pervy 11 year old boy. I'm hoping this is a sign that Kanye will Advance, maybe in about 10 years. If he keeps staying true to his own "unique" vision, infuriating his fan base, and wearing leather jackets and dark shades, then the chances are very real for him to join the ranks of "Advanced artist." Either that or he's so arrogant he thinks anything he creates is brilliant and worthy of his fans admiration.
