During a UStream conference call this past Thursday, Kanye West revealed the five different album covers (see below) that will accompany his upcoming fifth solo album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, out November 22. Designed by artist Greg Kondo, four of the five album covers had been previously released along side the releases of the album’s singles “Power” and “Runaway” featuring Pusha T. Although the fifth cover had yet to be released at the time of the conference, it has since been released (see above).
In addition, fans debating which cover to buy the album with need not fret. During the UStream, ‘Ye explained that each physical copy of the LP will come with inserts of all five covers. The full UStream of the conference can be seen below.
fuck an album cover. i got high hopes for this album but the only artwork that matters is the music
Real talk.
honestly the fourth one with his head getting stabbed is the best choice, given the first one being controversial as fuck and the other three being a little meh…

HipHop is supposed to expand and grow…in multiple directions…KanYe is expanding HipHop on an artisty level (album covers and short movie) Nas expanded HipHop’s look into its roots (Distant Relatives album and conference) JaY-Z has expanded the business aspect (ALL of his ventures + Forbes list)…Immortal Technique/dead prez, are the most political (albums, discussion panels, etc)
–i support all of these cats except for those who keep the culture/art stagnant by only talking about dumb sh*t

-if u have to diss another artist, create a dance, or come up with nursery rhyme hooks….you suck
this shit is gonna be big. i dig the art form, i want the one with him and the white chik that shit is Wildcore
my bad, it comes with the cd
The art direction for these covers is the business!! Great art. Do you Kanye.
Is it just me or is Ye avoiding mentioning J. Cole? didn’t mention him as a feature on his album even tho he’s on the same track as the others he named. He also dodged a question about him… Jay already scared to get on another track with him… and I think Ye is gonna follow suit. Cole killed both of those features. *jus sayin*
J.Cole is nice.. but too early to compare..
so what, if you a fan you know j cole going to be something special, fuck the drama, J cole going to do same numbers as kanye, yea I said it.
… This was before he released the song with J. Cole on it. Also Big Sean killed it too just sayin
And why we talkin bout J cole, kanye the album covers are good shit, I’ gonna supoort the album.
abstract art boss…cool to me
The 3rd and 5th cover is beast!
I’m buying the album five times to collect as art, and that’s it! Kanye’s Stock just went up! I hope he spits some more inspirational sh3t for us Chi-Town N4ggas!The crime here sucks! I just got my work truck broken into at 2:30pm in daylight.
you don’t need to do that, all 5 covers are included in the album
2nd and 3rd album covers are the best, they strike at me more effectively than the rest…

The artist who painted the covers is named George Condo not Greg Condo. There is a documentary called ‘Condo Painting’ about him if you are interested in his work!
