Kanye West Confirms ‘Yeezus’ Artwork, Shares New Sample

Kanye West’s confirmed the artwork for his forthcoming ‘Yeezus’ album, as well as unveiling a short clip on his official site that may or may not be another glimpse of new material on the record.

Although it was previously believed to look more like this, ‘Yeezus” artwork is a touch different to the one we’d imagined via a Kim Kardashian Instagram. Considering the image was widespread and used alongside a pre-order link, ‘Yeezus” official unveiling seems like a quick turn. The official site firmly states, ‘No Pre Orders. Buy 18th June’.

The artwork is minimal and in its own way, provocative. Ok, it’s not exactly Hard Fi, but it’s in line with System of a Down to an extent.

Hover over the cover image and you can hear a new sample, potentially from a new track on the record.

Watch a recent projection of ‘New Slaves’. More are set to take place, including airings at Birmingham, Manchester, London and Glasgow in the UK. See the full list of projections here.

Here’s the artwork:
