I’d say my favorite has to be new slaves. The passion he was spitting with on the song is unreal. To me, it takes you on a journey of being pissed off and screaming and letting that emotion out. And right when you’ve gotten to the point of letting it all out, relief hits with the outro, and it’s almost as if you’re alleviated of your angst. Awesome track
My favorite track is “Guilt Trip”. I really like how Kanye incorporates the piano with the synths to create a masterpiece. Also the vocals and the Cudi part make it even more good! Rip Virgil 🕊🖤
My favourite tracks are New Slaves and Blood on the Leaves. The raw energy ye provides vocally on yeezus gets me hyped every time. And also the subject matter of the songs. whether it be problems in the industry, rasicm in the modern day climate. Or just something simple like I'm In It. The cover signifies the production very well to me. The just plain cd with the red tape like a bootleg disc. Ye and his team are on a whole other level.
That sculpture is so sick, but even if it fits the album's aesthetic, it doesn't fit the album's message, and most important it doesn't feel like Kanye. I'm both very happy and kinda sad that they scrapped it, reminds me of the cover on Atrocity Exhibition (Probably my favourite album cover possibly of all time)
i think the cover of Aleph by Gessalfestein had a big influence in the process. He worked on the album and the industrial sound vision came pretty much from this album too.
Haven’t seen the video fully yet but gessalfestein was a huge influence on yeezus, so if this dude doesn’t mention him he’s tripping. The aleph cover is super similar
Kanye wanted to work with Gesaffelstein after hearing the song "Viol". Aleph came out 4 months after Yeezus. Aleph's cover is a nod to Yeezus, not the other way around. It's very likely though that Gesaffelstein influenced the Donda cover in some way
My favorite track is 'Im in It' the drum break on the beat switch never gets old. I hated the Yeezus album cover at first, but looking back there's nothing but respect for the audacity to strip down the cd format bare and have it be recognized as a body of work for Ye.
Yeezus literally changed my life. Everything from the guerrilla marketing to the overall soundscapes really opened my mind to all the boundaries that art can break. The album cover will always be my favorite. I think my favorite song is probably Blood On The Leaves just because of how raw and emotional it is but I honestly love every song on Yeezus.
the entire aesthetic and vibe surrounding everything during the yeezus era is my absolute favorite. the concert merch, his style, the masks and the sounds are incredible. i truly think that yeezus is one of hip-hops most important records for shaping and molding how industrial experimental music can work so beautifully with the sounds and production of modern hip-hop and rap. utterly flawless
Favorite track has to be guilt trip. i love all the synthesized sounds and just the sound scape is amazing. with that kanye autotune. just the absolute perfect YEEZUS track imo. Super cool and informative video too. I love virgil. RIP.
This cover is the ultimate cover once you see the rest and know the backstory. I’m very glad you actually spoke on the theming of minimalism and maximalism and there was no better way to show how open the casket for CD’s was. the orange tape highlights the temptation to peek in and see what it sounds like and to me that’s the next step in getting the full message. Also my fav song has to be guilt trip or send it up
My favourite track is on sight. Its a polarising start to the album but a needed one. It throws you directly into the sonic deep-end with the blown out synth tracks and ye’s verse is still heard over all of it. Perfect way to start an album like yeezus..
I think Kanye's final design choice is a very clean and interesting cover, and it serves as a good send-off to the music industry's focus on CD's. As for my favorite track, definitely Black Skinhead because it's just a banger in the car and a classic. I really love your videos man, I was surprised when I finally checked your sub count. I expected a few hundred thousand. You're definitely on your way though!!
i think my favorite is also hold my liquor, just the sound that it brings to us feels different but I think it was a great idea to use the cd just as simple like that to show it pure as it said in the video that cd’s we’re dying because of itunes so i found it so fascinating
My favorite track is Bound 2. And Kanye's album cover choice was perfect. It breaks all rules about a final project. Imagine turning in a book report to your teacher with nothing besides blank pages and your name written on the back of the last page. 😱🤯
I'm truly inspired by Abloh's process and especially since we've been getting more information about his work with Kanye. With enough work, I'll match half that man's creativity one day.
My favorite is definitely On Sight, the surprise of playing it for the first time was the best and I love how the cover stands out with it's shine and red label
my favorite track is guilt trip, even tho cudi didn’t really give clearance to use his vocals, they fit perfectly. cudi 🤝 ye. the final cover is brilliant. while trying to make a statement with it, i feel like this was the birth of ye’s use of minimalism
That first listen of on sight I will never forget... have to go with New Slaves for favourite track. The final album cover is still the best. Would’ve been a cop out if it was condo art painting again. Still love how Yeezus is the open casket death to CD’s and that’s when stream services started to gain traction!!
I want to add the sound chosen was already established. Unfortunately it was the first time we saw Kanye stop innovating. He chose to do what was being done by smaller artists. Before he used to start trends, musically speaking. Also, this is only within Hip-Hop, and mainstream at that. Because industrial music existed for many years. And people had already been influenced by it. He just made his version of it. Again, no longer starting something but rather his take on something already established. No hate, just correcting as many give him too much credit like nobody else experimented like him or even moreso, created new subgenres. I fear his mental health clearly got worse around this time. His frustration, street probably contributed to it. Also if Rick Rubin didn't do his magic right before finishing the album, it would've come out sounding very layered.
My favorite songs from Yeezus are Bound 2 and Guilt Trip. Bound 2 sounds very different from the rest of the album and is a song I can always come back to. Its heartfelt and fun. Guilt Trip sounds unlike anything I have heard before and I love Kanye's vocals, the production and Kid Cudi's feature is absolutely amazing. I used to think that the cover was kind of boring, but its really grown on me. I think the minimalism contrasts nicely with the albums loud abrasive songs and I appreciate the CD sendoff aspect. I also like how different the album cover looks as opposed to the rest of Ye's discography.
My favourite track of the album is Black Skinhead, I love how direct he is with his story and references. I also like the album cover, I have to say that I was fascinated with the ones that didn’t make it. I just can’t see a different cover than the one we all know
At no point do you mention that the Yeezus cover is directly ripped and inspired by Peter Saville's cover for New Order's Crystal CD single 😂 do better research man
I agree, this is very sad that this legendary designer didn't event get any credits for that cover. Clearly without his idea Yeezus cover would have never came to existence.
HOLD MY LIQUOR IS MINE TOO!!! I had a crazy experience listening to yeezus high and I found such a new angle to hold my liquor, it’s related aesthetic (for me) is like sitting by a misty lake in the dawn whilst tired and hungover, but also angry
I love how unique the cover is and looking at the other more grand and detailed iterations makes me appreciate the direction they went in, the simplicity I feel really captures the rawness of the sound. My favorite songs are On Sight, New Slaves, and Guilt Trip, I can't just choose one lol
my favorite track has got to be hold my liquor too. the guitar synth riff towards the end is unmatched in how raw and emotional it is. in regards to the album cover, i think that i liked some of the alternative covers more (specifically the gold foil covers) just due to personal preference, but i honestly think that the final decision was what was right for the album. i also think that it's really a mindblow that this album is a "sendoff" for CDs since TLOP came out 3 years later and was only available for digital download. really cool in my op.
My favorite is Guilt Trip, the journey it went through is interesting to me as it was originally produced by S1 and had Jay-Z on it because it was on WTT, but (kinda like the cover to Yeezus) would have some changes done to it, like Hov being removed and S1's drums being swapped for Travis', even tho we don't know how the OG sounded, the current one we have feels a bit more naked like the Yeezus cover. Weird comparison but yeah, as far as covers I liked, I somewhat prefer one of Joe's earlier ones, it was orange and sorta had a prescription label on it which fit the OG title at the time, but the final cover is great too.
As a black creative my favourite song on yeezus is new slaves, but send it up is a close runner up just because of it´s "apocalyptic" and different sound, the sirens sound like a world collapsing to me. Even tough all of the Yeezus covers impress and inspire especially as "remixes" of michealangelos david are just dope, I just have to think of all the amazing yeezus fancovers that exist and see its true worth
unfortunately no mentioning of gesaffelsteins album cover for his album „aleph“ which was THE major influence for the yeezus cover . gesaffelstein also produced on yeezus / nice video tho
Okay. So I’m super artsy. Time to build up some dank and release some Doves. I am owed my fucken roses. Now I plot, then I rise. I hate standing on the side lines this long. Yo coach! #Dope
Nice video man, but not acknowledging Peter Saville's influence is a criminal oversight on your part. Look up his 2001 design for New Order's "Crystal" single. Around the time of the release of Yeezus, in 2013, Saville was approached by Kanye in regards to some logo design work. It is said that he refused to do the album cover because he does not want to replicate his work. So, while conceptually I agree that this design process has been conducted very well and has resulted in very cohesive product, I think you might be giving Virgil a bit too much praise on this one. :) Also, Yeezus has been clearly influenced by David Rudnick's 2011 artwork for Boys Noize and Erol Alkan's 'Lemonade. And actually Gesaffelstein appears on this record. Sooooo... one of the producers on Yeezus. You left out some crucial details man.
The Takeaway : My favorite track off of Yeezus would be Black Skinhead. Not just the song but the entire back story of how Rick Rubin got involved and helped steer its minimalistic, primal sound to the forefront in a matter of three weeks. There's one part of this interview where Rick Rubin explained that he had to find a way to make it sound cohesive with numerous tracks causing mixing problems and the only was to eliminate them was to strip it down bare, which lead to the more tribal drums focus. Genius. The George Conte influence and work on this and on other album covers with Virgil Abloh is one of the reasons I went to the exhibit he had at The New School Museum in NYC. It really had an impact on me.
I was lucky enough to watch the YEESUZ SHOW FRONT ROW. I took my sister. It was a religious experience is the only way to describe it. I’ve been to many concerts in different types of music. Nothing has topped the Yeesuz show. Ye was supposed to come out with a 3D documentary/Movie . I wonder if the world will ever see it? People have seen clips. But iPhone clips do it no justice.
I absolve love this video. You do Kanye proud with these videos. Glad to see you continue to provide your own unique perspective on music and hip hop. This is just the begging. Already copped my yeezus figure, thanks again !
Saying “it’s one of the most influential albums in the last few decades” is a MASSIVE stretch. Kanye fans act like it was the first industrial hip hop album
What a great video. I’m gonna subscribe. This was a great piece you put together. Thank you. Virgil was and is Amazing. I wish him and Ye were still working together. I think YE still Carries a lot of Hurt over Virgil’s passing . Two geniuses of our Generation.
Yeezus is my favorite Kanye album. Used to pick Blood on the Leaves as easily my favorite because of those crazy horns...but now I'm leaning towards Hold My Liquor!!
Its so fucking funny that last week i just thought about how Luv is Rage 2's cover is so ass with uzi doing cringe move and all that dumb shit and ass colors so materialistic and ass. And i fucking love how genius Yeezus cover is.
I feel like the cd Yeezus album cover was Kanye memeing listeners. It was as if you were seeing the album cover of the album cover of the album you purchased. Kind of a meta thing going on.
my favorite has to be 'Send It Up' theres something spo hypnotic about the alarm in the background that i cant get enought even after 10 years of its release ..nice video
I have to say New Slaves or Blood On the Leaves, they were two of the first songs i heard from ye so they kinda tie for 1. In reality the whole album is a fuckin masterpiece. Friends are made when you know you both like yeezus.
BRO, CAN RUclipsRS PLEASE STOP SELLING US SOMETHING ON EVERY DAMN UPLOAD,,, LIKE OK WE GET IT, YOU NEED THE MONEY, BUT I CLICKED FOR THE TITLE NOT COMMERCIAL YOU MADE IN THE BEGINING
My fav track is New Slaves. You can feel the anger during first couple of verses. The beat switch in the end is almost euphoric, similar to Beethoven's symphonies.
this is an insanely incredible video! Congrats!
& Long Live Virgil 🤍
Wow, thank you so much - means a lot coming from you!
Hi Vexx!! :)
I’d say my favorite has to be new slaves. The passion he was spitting with on the song is unreal. To me, it takes you on a journey of being pissed off and screaming and letting that emotion out. And right when you’ve gotten to the point of letting it all out, relief hits with the outro, and it’s almost as if you’re alleviated of your angst. Awesome track
Real
My favorite track is “Guilt Trip”. I really like how Kanye incorporates the piano with the synths to create a masterpiece. Also the vocals and the Cudi part make it even more good!
Rip Virgil 🕊🖤
I love that song so much, its so underrated!
If you loved me so much why did you let me gooooooooooo ohhh whoaa
My favourite tracks are New Slaves and Blood on the Leaves. The raw energy ye provides vocally on yeezus gets me hyped every time.

6:05 is there somewhere I can download the full size image of that margiela mask art/graphic? looks nice!
Black skinhead is for sure my favourite
Im in it
do you think someone could give me the website with all the designs on it?
O P I N I O N A T ED
My favorite track is 'Im in It' the drum break on the beat switch never gets old. I hated the Yeezus album cover at first, but looking back there's nothing but respect for the audacity to strip down the cd format bare and have it be recognized as a body of work for Ye.
The cover will forever remind me of Mos Def's album cover which was pretty much done in the same vein. But everything about Yeezus is classic
All praise to the million people who worked on the album lol
I’m in it is my least favorite song 🤨
IM A BADMAN IF YOU NO SAY!
I also think the mentioned drums sound a lot like the ones in Tyler's new JUGGERNAUT track, they hit so hard
Yeezus literally changed my life. Everything from the guerrilla marketing to the overall soundscapes really opened my mind to all the boundaries that art can break. The album cover will always be my favorite. I think my favorite song is probably Blood On The Leaves just because of how raw and emotional it is but I honestly love every song on Yeezus.
Blood on the leaves is my fave too, shit just goes too hard 🔥
the entire aesthetic and vibe surrounding everything during the yeezus era is my absolute favorite. the concert merch, his style, the masks and the sounds are incredible. i truly think that yeezus is one of hip-hops most important records for shaping and molding how industrial experimental music can work so beautifully with the sounds and production of modern hip-hop and rap. utterly flawless
This album has 0 skips, only 10 songs and replay value out the butthole….from an album from 2013
Favorite track has to be guilt trip. i love all the synthesized sounds and just the sound scape is amazing. with that kanye autotune. just the absolute perfect YEEZUS track imo. Super cool and informative video too. I love virgil. RIP.
W choice
Same
Underrated as fuck. Cudi killed it.
So underrated, it's my fav on the album too. I looked at the listens on Spotify the other day and Guilt Trip had the least... shame.
Yes bro guilt trip is so underrated kid cudi at the end was so good
This cover is the ultimate cover once you see the rest and know the backstory. I’m very glad you actually spoke on the theming of minimalism and maximalism and there was no better way to show how open the casket for CD’s was. the orange tape highlights the temptation to peek in and see what it sounds like and to me that’s the next step in getting the full message.

I expected a few hundred thousand. You're definitely on your way though!!
Oh I thought they just ripped off System of a Down's "Steal This Album" cover
Fire video! Told multiple people about it so far. Great seeing all this info put together
i think my favorite is also hold my liquor, just the sound that it brings to us feels different but I think it was a great idea to use the cd just as simple like that to show it pure as it said in the video that cd’s we’re dying because of itunes so i found it so fascinating

My favorite is definitely On Sight, the surprise of playing it for the first time was the best and I love how the cover stands out with it's shine and red label
so we making a video about the yeezus cover and not talk about the red tape nor the "add grafitti" posters?
my favorite track is guilt trip, even tho cudi didn’t really give clearance to use his vocals, they fit perfectly. cudi 🤝 ye. the final cover is brilliant. while trying to make a statement with it, i feel like this was the birth of ye’s use of minimalism
Dissect Podcast did a great job discussing this album my favorite track even after all these years since it released is Blood on the Leaves
That first listen of on sight I will never forget... have to go with New Slaves for favourite track.
The final album cover is still the best. Would’ve been a cop out if it was condo art painting again. Still love how Yeezus is the open casket death to CD’s and that’s when stream services started to gain traction!!
Zine is pronounced ‘zeen’. It’s short for magazine.
I came here to say the same thing.
this was awesome. my favorite song on yeezuz is guilt trip. keep up the awesome work. and rest in peace Virgil 🙏🏽📀
I want to add the sound chosen was already established. Unfortunately it was the first time we saw Kanye stop innovating. He chose to do what was being done by smaller artists.

At no point do you mention that the Yeezus cover is directly ripped and inspired by Peter Saville's cover for New Order's Crystal CD single 😂 do better research man
This was bugging me so much. Kanye and his collaborators have long histories of copying and ripping off.
I agree, this is very sad that this legendary designer didn't event get any credits for that cover. Clearly without his idea Yeezus cover would have never came to existence.
HOLD MY LIQUOR IS MINE TOO!!! I had a crazy experience listening to yeezus high and I found such a new angle to hold my liquor, it’s related aesthetic (for me) is like sitting by a misty lake in the dawn whilst tired and hungover, but also angry
It’s fall right now this is when I usually blast guilt trip and hold my liquor in my headphones everyday
Thanks for another good video! My favorite track on Yeezus is also Hold My Liquor. Yeezus is also my favorite Ye album for sure.
We weren’t supposed to come up with something this clean
I love your editing sm, thank you for giving me an insight into one of my favorite album covers!
"Zine" is pronounced like "ZEEN" like the end of the word "MAGAZINE"
Great video but what the fuck is that piece in the end... please don't do shit like that, it's disrispectful in my opinion...
I know he didn't just pronounce zines like that
Amazing video as usual, as for my fav track on yeezus, it’s black skinhead
I love how unique the cover is and looking at the other more grand and detailed iterations makes me appreciate the direction they went in, the simplicity I feel really captures the rawness of the sound. My favorite songs are On Sight, New Slaves, and Guilt Trip, I can't just choose one lol

THIS is good
WHY ARE YOU SO PARANOID
this guy sayin no one made anything like yeezus before🤣
My favorite is Guilt Trip, the journey it went through is interesting to me as it was originally produced by S1 and had Jay-Z on it because it was on WTT, but (kinda like the cover to Yeezus) would have some changes done to it, like Hov being removed and S1's drums being swapped for Travis', even tho we don't know how the OG sounded, the current one we have feels a bit more naked like the Yeezus cover.

Underrated channel. You should have millions of subs.
on sight, the balls to start a album like that
my favourite yeezus track is guillotine
awesome video. more pls
My man got a sponsorship, proud of u bro
Yea dude those covers definitely set the mood for a bad ass album that goes down in HITStory. Manz is his own boss ♾
Great video keep goin man ur goin places!
I thought this was about actual mastering in music production😭 and I thought this dude made a cover/remix or the entire yeezus album.
unfortunately no mentioning of gesaffelsteins album cover for his album „aleph“ which was THE major influence for the yeezus cover . gesaffelstein also produced on yeezus / nice video tho
Yes knaye wes my favourite rap
it's kinda sad those condo versions never got used, would've been fire for a vinyl version something
Okay. So I’m super artsy. Time to build up some dank and release some Doves. I am owed my fucken roses. Now I plot, then I rise. I hate standing on the side lines this long. Yo coach! #Dope

wherw do you get the images from the virgil abloh design process of the cover?
I was lucky enough to watch the YEESUZ SHOW FRONT ROW. I took my sister. It was a religious experience is the only way to describe it. I’ve been to many concerts in different types of music. Nothing has topped the Yeesuz show. Ye was supposed to come out with a 3D documentary/Movie . I wonder if the world will ever see it? People have seen clips. But iPhone clips do it no justice.

Saying “it’s one of the most influential albums in the last few decades” is a MASSIVE stretch. Kanye fans act like it was the first industrial hip hop album
Incredible video, also my favorite Yeezus song is New Slaves, I just love the depth of emotion within it mixed with the production; it’s immaculate
What a great video. I’m gonna subscribe. This was a great piece you put together. Thank you. Virgil was and is Amazing. I wish him and Ye were still working together. I think YE still Carries a lot of Hurt over Virgil’s passing . Two geniuses of our Generation.
Mastered? Pop smokes cover
Yeezus is my favorite Kanye album. Used to pick Blood on the Leaves as easily my favorite because of those crazy horns...but now I'm leaning towards Hold My Liquor!!
all this work for yeezus and the donda album cover is just black 😭😭😭
The moment You understand Yeezus, You realize it's one of the best artworks of all time.
favourite song: New Slaves
Its so fucking funny that last week i just thought about how Luv is Rage 2's cover is so ass with uzi doing cringe move and all that dumb shit and ass colors so materialistic and ass.
And i fucking love how genius Yeezus cover is.
hold my liquor also and i think the album cover is perfect for itself.
I still remember when Yeezys was released on Apple Music and i fell in-love with Hold my Liquor . I never understood the hate this album got. .
My fav tracks are Black Skinhead, I Am A God and Send It Up. The instrumentals are so energetically mental and are imo the face of the album
"zee-ns" not "zeye-ns"
I feel like the cd Yeezus album cover was Kanye memeing listeners. It was as if you were seeing the album cover of the album cover of the album you purchased. Kind of a meta thing going on.
my favorite has to be 'Send It Up' theres something spo hypnotic about the alarm in the background that i cant get enought even after 10 years of its release ..nice video
ZEEN
System of a downs steal this album 19 years prior was the first to do this IMO. However Yeezus did it better.
I have to say New Slaves or Blood On the Leaves, they were two of the first songs i heard from ye so they kinda tie for 1. In reality the whole album is a fuckin masterpiece. Friends are made when you know you both like yeezus.
fav tracks are hold my liquor and new slaves for shit. that beat switch on new slaves and the guitar solo on HML are impeccable
BRO, CAN RUclipsRS PLEASE STOP SELLING US SOMETHING ON EVERY DAMN UPLOAD,,, LIKE OK WE GET IT, YOU NEED THE MONEY, BUT I CLICKED FOR THE TITLE NOT COMMERCIAL YOU MADE IN THE BEGINING
top 1 kanye album
What did you mean by the creative goal of the design team was to find the most pure voice because that is what Yeezus sonically represented?
Great content 👍🏾
Black Skinhead/ Blood on the Leaves : Thanks for making this video.
HIS NAME ISENT KANYE WEST!!! ITS *YE*
Hahaha! any way great video!
Which Virgil book are you referring to in the video? BTW A great video! I subscribed!!
def Ye's best album, Guilt trip best song imo 11/10 song. Rip Virgil
Is there a website where I can see these mock up covers or anything similar? Thanks
My fav track is New Slaves. You can feel the anger during first couple of verses. The beat switch in the end is almost euphoric, similar to Beethoven's symphonies.
Favorite track is definitely Black Skinhead, its good hype music
ON SIGHTTTT
grouse video, instrumental remake of guilt trip by me.
Anyone got the link to the Virgil
Interview where he goes it wasn’t supposed to be this clean?
