Kanye West and his record label Def Jam have officially confirmed that the album cover for Yeezus will be as simple as the one leaked by his girlfriend, Kim Kardashian.
The new cover, which E! News reports was revealed on Friday, just shows a clear CD case with a black disc inside that only has the legal Def Jam text printed on it. A piece of orange tape is right side with the word “Yeezus” scribbled in black ink.
While it is similar to the cover Kardashian showed off on Instagram, it is slightly different. The cover in the Kardashian post had what looked like a piece of melted gold inside the CD case.
A KanyeWest.com note shows the album cover. When you place the cursor over the cover, a blast of music plays and the release date - June 18 - appears.
An iTunes listing of the album briefly appeared, showing 14 tracks listed. He performed two songs on Saturday Night Live that will be on the album, including “New Slaves.”
He projected the video for “New Slaves” on 66 buildings around the world before the SNL performances.
