It was released on November 24, 2008, by Def Jam Recordings and Roc-A-Fella Records. Even back in 2008, when 808s & Heartbreak debuted, Kanye broke the barriers and norms of. Kanye has long been touted as one of the musical geniuses of our generation. But mark my words, one day I will finally get my hands on a Kaws Darth Vader vinyl figure. 808s & Heartbreak is the fourth studio album by American producer and vocalist Kanye West. One album is scarcely mentioned and happens to be not only Kanye’s best album but the best album of all time: 808s & Heartbreak.
The guy is uber-creative and everything he releases either on his official internet store OrigianlFake or distributed by a third party retailer sells out immediately. While the two versions of the album’s cover are not that different, it’s Kaws! While the general public may not be familiar with his incredible work, his street art and designer vinyl figures are some of the most sought after pieces in their respective industries. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to get a hard copy of 808s & Heartbreak with the album cover featuring Kaws’ artwork. While Kanye gets a lot of flack from many different groups for the things he says, I still love the guy and think his music is genius, which is one reason I’m heading down to my local Best Buy later today to pick up the album. Today, Tuesday, November 25th, Kanye West’s hotly anticipated third album 808s & Heartbreak comes out today and everyone who purchases a copy of the album from iTunes will notice it has a special album cover featuring the artwork of New York street artist Kaws created exclusively for iTunes.
