As if the original artwork wasn’t enough, Kanye revealed last night at the Los Angeles premiere of his Runaway film that he’s got five different covers for My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasty are in the works (and that those that buy the album will receive them all). No details were given on the other versions but Ye did go into more detail about the banned cover.
I told [Condo] I wanted a phoenix, and that’s what he came up with. And what I love about it is, both me and George express ourselves with our truest vision, not based on what society or culture feels is right, but what’s truly in our heart, and I just know if George was in my class back when I was in kindergarten, and he came up with something like that, I would’ve been envious, like, ‘Man, how did you come up with that character with no arms and the wings, man? That’s cool!’ … And it’s simply like that. I just really love the colors. I thought the colors were just amazing, and the imagery was amazing. I thought it was a cool, awesome cover.
He also stated that Devin In a New Dress and Monster are the G.O.O.D. Friday tracks that will also appear on the album.

I’m a big Kanye fan, but sometimes I think he’s trying too hard to make some buzz. I miss old super-ego’d-fuck-what-you-think Kanye.

Monster? Really Ye? I personally think Devil In A New Dress was the ONLY album worthy G.O.O.D. Friday leak. Then again, what the hell do I know? I am just a fan.

Surprised Christian Dior Flow didn’t make the album. Admittedly it’s a bit feature heavy, but it’s been my favourite G.O.O.D. Friday track by far.

Yes he did retard. Don’t believe Media Take Out bullshit. He has had teeth up until very recently when he got them replaced with diamonds.

Cool, five covers. Gimme.
Stephanie said this on October 19th, 2010 at 6:18 pm
There is really no need for 11 artists on one track. Less is More. I Would of been happy with Drake and Tony Williams.
TE said this on October 19th, 2010 at 6:31 pm
Where’d my comment go? Anyways, five covers is great. I love control and customization. Oh and plz.. Don’t do Monster. Devil in a new dress is epic though.

not devin devil but kanye… thats my nig. i think he may be one of the best artists of the 21st century all across the board. music and more.. even down to the way he dresses. think about how everything he has worn was first called gay only later to be what everyone wears
calvinbrett said this on October 19th, 2010 at 9:48 pm
@JamStarr His bottem teeth have diamonds in them
InsaneBoricua said this on October 19th, 2010 at 10:33 pm
Nice Kayne. He picked the two best G.O.O.D. Friday songs to put on there. Now go put a third verse on Devil In A New Dress

LOL @ kanye being high during this interview
Kj Kasanova said this on October 19th, 2010 at 11:03 pm
Am I the only one who thinks G.O.O.D. Friday, was one of the best good friday songs? I kinda wish it made the album, even though it wouldn’t fit
silence said this on October 19th, 2010 at 11:18 pm
Honestly i think whatever kanye does we are all gonna be “awed” for whatever he does or what ever he thinks just because of the achieved fame he has now. What ever he’s gonna put out now from now until he stops he’s always gonna think farther then anybody else. I dont really wanna send out this “hater” vibe or anything but im just really observant when it comes to the music industry.
