    I like the covers of The College Dropout and Late Registration better.

    This album better not be full of japanese europop nonsense, I’ll be sooo pissed if Kanye goes all international crazy.

    I’m glad the little bear guy is back, but this whole Anime nonsense better be over when “Good Ass Job” comes out.

    NHOC

    Kanyeezy ain’t really rollin with that cover right? I could’nt give an Eff about what a cover looks like but thats just a bit too flaming.

    What up Nah?

    I think I’ve listened to about 6 of the tracks so far Rey Rey. I’m diggin it. There’s a lotta humour in there Rey Rey, refreshing to have an MC not take himself too seriously, ain’t seen that since B I double G I E…

    No probs FuckU, have you peeped it yet? I still have’nt seen it……..

    why does a brotha have to be gay just because he does something different.

    ^^People fear what they don’t understand. But the cover is slightly gay nonetheless. I don’t understand homo bears.

  30. Paperstacker Says:
    August 8th, 2007 at 8:54 pm

    WTF is this

    What happened to the original cover??? The one with the bear iwth glasses.

    Apart from the fact it looked way better it wasn’t as teh GHEY.

    And this just swagger jacked Lupes cover.

  31. The Truth... Says:
    August 8th, 2007 at 9:01 pm

    It’s gay…..period.

    Anybody co-signing this cover is gay too. Or at least mad suspect. Please do not say “it’s cool” just cause Kanye is one of your faves…..that shit is gay.

    “why isn’t Hip Hop the same as it used to be?” I wonder….fruity shit like this, that’s why.

  32. BKScribe Says:
    August 8th, 2007 at 9:05 pm

    fuck that… this cover is on point.. how many dumb niggaz can we see with their shirts off.. or sittin in a whip.. or standin against a brick wall lookin to the left.. or holdin guns.. or whatever cliche shit you wanna envision.. muthafuckas need to stop bein so homophobic. and if kanye a flamin fairy.. he still makin better music than 92.7% of the rappers out

    batty man cover, so i guess you bitches should love it.am sure you guys are praying that he outsells 50, but form what i can see 50 has a better album than kanye. non of kanye single did shit, so dont even mention curtis first 2.atleast amusement park was voted and performed at BET awards.

    The cover is dope. smh @ niggas that like it, but are too afraid to admit it…

    The same boring “nigga with some model bitches, nice whip, and a stack of bills” cover photo shoot is ———–>

  42. Darth Cipher Says:
    August 8th, 2007 at 9:30 pm

    everyone seem shocked that Ye would go this route on a cover… he’s always about pushing the limit with his shit, and if you take notice to alot of things around today, it’s all about colours and art… so if anything he’s keeping up with the times… this cover is relevant to the present, definitely feeling the cover… “Stupidly Ill” (c) the euro dude that interviewed him

  43. piffy Says:

    I LOVE IT! I think Kanye just sold another million just off the cover

    1) Kanye > 50
    2) College Dropout > Late Registration > Graduation > DooDoo > Curtis

    KANYE murders Curtis on 9/11, your career is over, OVER son!

    (btw, 40 Inch you’re a bigot, why hate on someone b/c they’re different, should someone hate you b/c you’re black, white or brown?)

    Thank God that there are still some intelligent folks out there. Mofo’s always talking about how shit is gay, what IS gay is niggas one album covers and in videos with there shirts off looking like gangsta ass chip n dales dancers. But you fools think that is cool. Kanyes shit is mad creative. You cats have no style and no class. Fools are the same ones that think Nas should have gotten an Oscar for Belly .

    Real shit,I didnt read the above posts at first.Im not trying to hop on no bandwagon,but why should his album cover be like everybody elses?He doesnt make music like everyone else.Now Beans wanna talk shit.Can you name the last Beans song that got any type of play?Im not saying Kanye is the greatest,but his music is on point.

    Also, you are telling me that covers are either fruity like this one or have dudes with no shirts, spinners and hoes?! You guys are retarded. There’s nothing in between?!?! wow….

    Have you noticed that the guys that usually complain about others being gay are usually found out to be fudge packing on the Low Low? Yeah….ya’ll cats is undercover fruits that want to look hard so your fruityness is not revealed to the world.

    August 9th, 2007 at 11:08 am

    ^^ You’re gay…..

    In no way am I tryin to look hard. I’m just giving my opinion….and I thught it was obvious that it was in a jokingly kind of way. That cover is stupid to say the least. It shows again how Kanye is just trying to be different and get some attention. Sure, he is different, but like I said above, that doesn’t automatically mean it’s good. If you go out of your way to show you are different, you have a problem.

  71. DL3 Says:
    August 9th, 2007 at 2:37 pm

    Nobody ever responds to me on this thing….but Im gona put it out there….If Cassidy wants to battle somebody so bad….why doesn’t he go at Crooked I ??? And I dont wanna hear that ol, we want somebody established BS….cuz Croooked I def. has a name on the west side….and I think he might serve cass up….that or Weezy and Cass would be sick

    word,he is…and I wanna see him go up against somebody who actually has a shot at burning him up….Ima put this idea in the air as often as possible….it might actually happen….put up quick 50k….Cass Vs. Crooked I

  74. greg Says:
    August 9th, 2007 at 5:52 pm

    …who says he’s going out of his way to show that he’s different, ppl should really do background checks then you’d know the significance of this artist that designed kanye’s album cover, jewelry, mixtape cover etc…then you’d have a better understanding… and i hope that wasn’t a serious idea for an album cover frank white if so you’re definitely unemployed because you were the genius behind no limit and cash moneys marketing

  75. miltee Says:

    that cover looks unique..
    uniqueness in the rap game = rare.

  76. EBZ Says:
    August 20th, 2007 at 1:15 am

    It’s cute but it looks like he’s trying too hard to be different…..it’s unique but like wth is it supposed to mean?
