Wal-Mart Denies Banning Kanye’s Cover
by Karen
Say what you will about Kanye West, but things are a lot more fun when he’s ranting, dropping quality music and doing whatever it is he does to piss off the establishment. Earlier this week, it was reported Wal-Mart did not approve of Kanye’s upcoming album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy due to the graphic nature of its cover. Turns out, that may not exactly be the case.
“We’re excited about Kanye West’s new album and we look forward to carrying it in our stores on November 22nd,†a Walmart spokesperson says in a statement provided to EW. “As always, it’s our standard practice to carry the edited parental advisory version. We did not reject the cover artwork and it was never presented to us to view.â€
We’ll just put this on Kanye’s tab of misunderstandings since he seems to be stock piling them this week. In related Kanye West album cover news, he recently revealed there will be five covers which will be available when you go to the store on November 22 to purchase the album.
