This man is simply dominating news headlines these days. Kanye West is bigger than ever and he’s appearing everywhere. It seems every single day there’s a new story about the rapper. Now once again, we bring you more Kanye West news. This time he speaks out about his new film Runaway, his upcoming album cover for ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’ and his biggest collaboration yet.
First up is the album cover. While talking to MTV, he revealed that he has five album covers for the upcoming disc. He also talked a bit about the previously banned album cover. It’s a short clip, only about a minute but it’s interesting to hear about the five album covers.
Next, Kanye revealed that the track All Of The Lights, would feature 11 other artists. The track will feature Rihanna, Alicia Keys, Elton John, Fergie, John Legend, The-Dream, Tony Williams, Kid Cudi, Charlie Wilson, Ryan Leslie, and La Roux’s Elly Jackson. When asked to describe the track, Kanye said it was “completely seamless and completely ghetto as f**k.”
To be honest, that track sounds epic. With all those people helping Mr. West, I think it could turn out to be the best song on the album. A leaked and unfinished version, which can be heard here, sounds awesome and that version only has Drake. It appears as if Drake won’t be on the final version though which I do find a bit odd.
Lastly, Kanye did an interview on Ellen where he talked about a variety of topics, most notably, his upcoming film, Runaway. He also showed off a clip of the film.
So there you have it, a whole bunch of Kanye news to hold you over until the release of his new album. Be sure to check back for our review of the new album when it drops on November 22nd.
