Before you doubt its authenticity, just take a look at those ventilated shades. Familiar? Yep, that fashion-forward teddy bear’s taken style tips directly from your favorite hip-hop graduate, and he’s got his eye on the rekkid. Maybe Amazon goofed? Either way, don’t even think about stealing this fine art before Graduation day — Takashi Murakami/Kaikai Kiki Co., Ltc. and Kanye West LLC own this shit.
UPDATE: Sorry Kanye, we jumped the gun. Nah Right tells us what’s up after the jump.
Via Nah Right:
Contrary to what you may have been told, this Graduation cover is fugazi. From what I?m hearing, the actual cover will be much crazier. That said, some pretty big info about the album will be announced real soon, and it?s gonna set the internets on fire.
Well we love Fugazi, but we hate fakes. So it goes! Next time we post the Kanye cover, it’ll be less fake but probably just as copyrighted.

this is really shitty. there’s no way this is the final artwork. it looks like someone did a bad job at a mockup of the Stronger single’s art.
This is already revealed as fake last week at Nah Right.

Or maybe it’s this one.
i’m calling import cover art or single cover art.
Amazon allows users to post their own version of artwork if none exists already. Plus, what dude above me said: It’s Fake.
first daft punk, now murakami? what’s next, kanye?
quick guess: a wes anderson documentary about the making of the album starring Battles, Deerhunter, and Panda Bear.
do you see what happens when you try to cover hip hop?
that would have been an awesome cover. not as great as zeitgeist (that was sarcasm) but i honestly would have bought the album on that alone
Shit, since this album is gonna drop on 9/11, why not just put a photo of the burning twin towers on the cover.
Because the Coup already did that.
This would’ve been an awesome cover:
were all just gonna have to wait and see
wat kanye came up with for the cover…
this shit is gonna be hot…cant wait for
this shit to come out..
what a wicked front cover .. i think it luks mint!! soooo much betta than the previous ones but anyway i aint 2 bothered about that i wanna nar what the album sounds lyk!!!
The Itunes Store has a small picture of the cover and this isn’t it.
