Kim Says Kanye West’s 13th Century Virgin Mary Artwork is for His Single ‘All Day’ not ‘So Help Me God’ Album
Kanye West posted what was initially thought to be the album cover and name for his forthcoming LP, So Help Me God. The basic album art contains what appears to be an ancient symbol, reportedly a 13th Century monastic symbol for the Virgin Mary. However, it appears that the artwork was actually just for 'Ye's single "All Day," which he released yesterday. Kim Kardashian took to Instagram to share the iTunes link (which also has the artwork as the single art) so fans can purchase the song.
A source close to Kanye confirmed to XXL that it is indeed the single art for "All Day" not So Help Me God.
After debuting the song last week at the recent BRIT Awards, Yeezy finally released the fiery single for fans consumption yesterday. The musical tone from ”All Day” is the complete opposite from his previous new singles (“Only One,” “Wolves” and “FourFiveSeconds”). The list of the composers for “All Day” is massive. Here it is: Kanye West, Paul McCartney, Tyler Bryant, Kendrick Lamar, Karim Kharbouch, Cydel Young, Victor Mensa, Mike Dean, Che Pope, Noah Goldstein, Allen Ritter, Mario Winans, Charles Njapa, Malik Yusef Jones, Patrick Reynolds, Ernest Brown, Diddy and Noel Ellis. Producer Hudson Mohawk said that "All DaY' was finished and mixed at The Healthfarm studio aka HudMo Heights in London. During his lecture at Oxford University, Kanye revealed that Steve McQueen, the director of 12 Years a Slave, shot the video for "All Day" earlier in the week. West’s seventh album, So Help Me God, seems to be coming imminently. Madonna has some advice for the megastar, don't take things too seriously.
"Don't go to awards shows looking for justice," Madonna said. "That's like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Just go and have fun. I never got too engaged with who wins awards or not, because I don't honestly think it's that important. So that part of him I can't relate to. Like, what's the point of fighting for somebody to ... like, ‘This person should have got it?'… I think sometimes he takes things too seriously."
