Kanye West's New Album Cover (uncensored)

Although Kanye West's new album, "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy," is available for pre-order on iTunes ($9.99-$14.99), you can't fully view the album's cover art there. The cover is pixelated on iTunes, but the uncensored version (below) has been floating around the Internet since Kanye posted it on Twitter. It was created for Kanye by George Condo, who has exhibited at major museums and galleries worldwide and who did the art for Kanye's single "Power." In case you were wondering, Mr. Condo's pieces are somewhat costly.

Whatever you may think of the album cover or Mr. West himself, you have to acknowledge that he has uncommon artistic sensibilities for a contemporary popular musician and that he challenges his audience -- also uncommon for a contemporary popular musician.
