Kanye’s Phoenix Sex Cover (Not) Banned
Pop rapper Kanye West says his “beautiful dark twisted fantasy” of sipping beer with a nipply phoenix-thing à la George Condo hoisted over his thigh was banned. But did ‘Ye jump the gun with his Twitter outrage? The LA Times says sort of. An anon industry source told them the label would back the art, but it could lead to a dip in sales since outlets like Best Buy and especially Wal-Mart won’t carry it. Still, Kanye complained on: Nirvana can dangle baby dick but he can’t have “a PAINTING of a monster with no arms and a polka dot tail and wings?” West forgot about the stickers. Also: West is going to need some stickers.

Editor-in-Chief:
Kanye's smart, he's been hyping his upcoming album via twitter and his other sites for months. Of course the stores will carry his album, and I predict that the album will sell very well… with a sticker on it.
