kanye wet cuck album cover kkk backlash 1234740496

Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, revealed the cover of his new album "Cuck" earlier this month, featuring an unauthorized photograph by acclaimed photojournalist Peter van Agtmael. The image depicts two Ku Klux Klan members in full regalia embracing, with one holding a bouquet, originally titled "The wedding of two members of the KKK in a barn in rural America." West altered the photo to make one Klansman appear Black and removed a dog with a "White Power" cape. Van Agtmael confirmed that neither West nor his team sought permission, and a legal process is now underway.
