KANYE WEST COVERS 'XXL' MAGAZINE, WROTE HIS OWN COVER STORY & DIRECTED HIS OWN SHOOT (WAIT--WHAT?)...

Word is, Kanye wrote HIS OWN cover story and served as Creative Director for his 40-page spread in the mag. WTH? What Editor-In_Chief in his/her right mind would relinquish this type of control to an artist? We guess one who reallyyyy wanted Kanye to bless the mag with his presence, yeah? It's actually rather genius 'cause if it sucks they can blame Kanye, and if it's good they can take credit for letting him do it. Ok ok, we see you. [Source]
