New Album with Nude Models for Kanye West
?The outspoken, hip hop rap star Kanye West is ready to launch his new album 808s & Heartbreak with several dozen nude models. The singer was with the entire team at an L.A. listening party Tuesday night. "I like the idea of nudity because I realize it's society that told us to wear clothes at a certain point," said West, 31, addressing about 200 guests he concluded with "The irony for me [as] somebody who's talked about so many labels - Louis Vuitton this, [Mercedes] Benz that, this girl looks good - [is that] now it's time to deliver ideas in the most naked form possible" as mentioned by PEOPLE.
The album is due on November 25 and it features big, broken, explosive beats and vocals that are all heavily manipulated using Auto-Tune, a studio pitch-correction device and it was recorded in Hawaii last month.
"It's from my heart. I don't give a f--- if someone rates it 'hot' or 'not.' It doesn't matter to me at this point," West told his guests. "I can only request that other people who make real art won't dictate their passion based on what is 'hot.' ... I'm here to bring sensitivity that cannot be judged." West is also planning for his next album in June 2009. "I have more music to do," he said. "It will be from my heart."
