Apparently the version of the “Black Skinhead” video we got yesterday was super unofficial.
Kanye West‘s Yeezus is still out, and still kicking. We thought we were getting a reminder of that yesterday when what was thought to be his new video, “Black Skinhead”, surfaced on the internet. Well, according to a controlled rant from Mr. West, we now know that the video was leaked, and in fact, he’s been working on the official video with British fashion photographer Nick Knight for 5 months, and was disheartened to see a shell of it floating around on the net.
The BLKKK SKKKN HD video that leaked yesterday was not the official version.

Me and Nick Knight have been working on this video for 5 months and for creatives it’s heartbreaking when something like this happens.

The final version will be ready within the next week.

So any website that may have the unapproved / unfinished ruff. I ask you to please take it down.

Allow me and Nick to give the world what we’ve been losing sleep over.

And to who ever leaked the video… FUK YOU!

Welp, that pretty much says it. So if you were one of the people responsible for leaking ‘Ye’s album, just know, that’s how he feels about you. Finished version will apparently be out within the week. `
