KanYe West – ‘Monster’

Leading up to the release of his fifth studio album KanYe West aka ‘Ye Tudda is tweaking the fine points of the production. This includes the album’s cover art. In all the previous projects ‘Ye Tudda has shown a steadfast and meticulous mind for every detail.

For this album, titled ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’ KanYe settled in on the painting displayed above. The Tall Israelis however nipped this idea in the butt [ll]. It’s still too close to the Taylor Swift fiasco for the T.I.’s to let KanYe ride off with all of this provocative imagery.

The last thing Universal/DefJam/Rocafella needs is for some retired soccer moms to stage a protest at Wal-Mart or BestBuy and keep this album from selling out. It’s not like people are buying CD’s anyhoo so there’s prA’li no reason to further tempt fate.

Too bad for ‘Ye Tudda tho’ since this wasn’t the first rejected piece of cover art for this album. Here’s a brief retrospective of all the deleted cover art designs for ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’ dropping in stores on November 22nd.

You don’t realize how many people are addicted to television until that shit gets taken away from them. People in New York and New Jersey were shitting themselves yesterday because the Fox affiliates programming had been ‘de-licensed’ from their local cable television provider.

Its easy to posit News Corporation, the owner of Fox networks and their affiliates for making their demands too great to the cable companies that license their content. Fox also went the grimy route by suspended their internet sites from those using the cable television provider’s browsers.

For someone like myself who is immersed in the interconnected networks all this chicanery means very little to me. There’s a stream of torrents for me to catch the wave with if I really needed to view Fox’ programming. But I didn’t. And I survived. I would have loved to watch professional football or the MLB playoffs but instead I went for a walk in Central Park.

Instead of playing the ‘Who Shot John’ game with the networks or the cable TV provider I turned them both off.

Anyone know who won yesterday?

I did.

Sean P ain’t neva lie.

We Americans have unhealthy relationships with everything we encounter.

Other cultures.

Mother Nature.

Medications.

And most of all, food.

I dislike Golden Corral mostly because I feel like a cow after I leave that place. And I’m still one of the slimmer dudes in the joint.

We have too much convenience in America and one day we are gonna have to pay for it. I’m sad to say that it looks like we will be paying for it out the ass. Nullus.

I was on my way to SneakerCon using public transportation and this chick was having a conversation with her homegirl and all of Franklin Avenue. She had this big, ill hairdo. It was BeYonce big but not blonde. It was brown. It was a Briance. ROFFFLE
