Tuesday, February 8th, 2011

After a few previews of their Kanye cover, here’s the full piece – photographed by Karl Lagerfeld.

He has literally put his money where his mouth is, and in tandem, VMAN has issued a promotion where one in ten covers contain REAL dollar bills. It’s the ‘thrill of the game’ – and who better to illustrate this than one of the most controversial music and fashion icons of our generation.

The issue hits newsstands today. Cop it here or check it out below:.
