Man whoever is doing these LupeCommonKanyeCaca covers needs to be fired fall back and let Mike2600 make their candy-coated cartoon visions look ILL AS FUCK.
I saw the website and was like, man obviously his publicist/handlers/whatevers have not really focused on the web design for a while, because this Japanese-BAPE-Lupe-Fiasco-Bearbrick schitt feels like 5-6 yrs old at this point.
But apparently Kanye and them really think this is what's really.

exactly, its not so much that i have a problem with the idea or anything, it just feels so fuckin dated. im sure if i saw this cover in like 1999-2000 id be like "whoa awesome" but if hes trying to keep with the times he needs to step it up. a LOT.
Y'all are OLD. Mixing Super Mario Bros 2, BAPE, Hello Kitty, & Gorillaz is the SHIT!
P.S. Does anybody have a big pic of Guru's Matrix album cover? I've been meaning to make a page of these awesomely bad modern album covers since they just don't seem to stop churning them out.
maybe hes actually a genius because hes trying to be ironic 15 years ahead of time?
...nah
study up young'ns that is from 2000.
he's on some new shit now:
too each his own - but I think he's a great pop artist.
oh, i know thats old. the guy had an exhibit at my local art museum when i was a junior in high school, and by that point that anime figurine was already in a hardbook book in the gift shop.
Murakami is that dude. He's not leading the pack in any way in the art game, but he's an established Warholian art celeb.
Kanye is just really going over the head of alot of uninformed cats.
And I dont even like Kanye
I heard theyre doin some art collabos together. Kanye's gettin some other money.
He's on some ......
stuff.
You mofos dont Have to like the cover, but for Kanye to acknowledge/reference the larger art game is cool w/ me. Becky/Raheem/Jeremy/Mario/Blake/etc.....are simply out of the loop.

I saw his website had the same theme.

Pretty pathetic.
Not as bad as Lupe or Common... but still
in the case of Kanye I respectfully disagree:

dude is dope and so is that cover
I have'nt really liked what I heard from this new record- but Kanye is good for hip-hop. Feelin the high-art pretensions!
dude you serious?
this artist is stuck in 2000.

i'm suprised it doesn't flash.

...nah
This cover sucks and so does the artist (both the cover designer and Kanye).
the Common album was by far the worst, which I thought was impossible after seeing the Lupe cover.
the thing that bothers me the most is the text! so fucking bad.

The Common cover is way worse than this.

who cares? the cover doesnt look cool, and if hes gonna have some pop-artsy shit on his cover he might as well keep with the times.
So if he kept up w/ the times, it would look cool?
