Wait, I thought Panic! At The Disco had already covered "Maneater". Was I wrong?

a very astute observation.

@DHMBIB: Heh heh.

i prefer the stuffed animal one.

Watch out, boy.

is it me or does 50 look a bit like Method Man?

I like Kanye's Joe Cool look. He's telling 50, "I dare you."

In addition to my Hall & Oates flashback, the dirty look on Fiddy's face reminds me of another pop-culture artifact from 1982.

So I guess this is how iconic popular art is reinvented when it turns 25. Next year, to celebrate the 25th anniversary of 1983, I expect Rolling Stone to put Rihanna on the cover in nothing but an oversized, off-the-shoulder grey sweatshirt.

I dunno. I see a vase.

Now if only their lips were a few inches closer...

Missed opportunity for a Gillette sponsored-cover! And what's this "King" BS? I thought that was over with what's-his-name King of Pap? As if we care. The king is dead ... long live the king.

@hotshot: Congratulations, you win the comment thread.

Cue 800 rap blogs sounding off about how this cover is even gayer than Baby & Wayne shirtless on XXL...

That fall album preview list at top is the stuff of my 1994 nightmares.

@NickEddy: Your nightmares must've been pretty prescient.

"Dude, I dreamt that Dave Grohl's going to start his own band with a name that makes no sense, and the white rap guy that released The Polyfuze Method last year is going to be really popular for some reason! And there's some 14 year-old girl that's going to grow up and popularize something called 'neo soul'!"

"Man, stop eating leftover pizza before you go to sleep."

They really shoulda just gone all out:

@hotshot: Too awesome.

Chesney feels left out. And Peyton Manning feels left out because Chesney feels left out.

Couldn't even tell you what a Kenny Chesney song sounds like, but I'd love to see him outsell both these clowns.

There's a Physical Anthropology class missing a visual aid.
...or "while Jay & his girl were mmm-mmm kissin'" Cutis was doping his 'roids.

@GovernmentNames: 'Zactly.

I don't feel a damn thing but apathy looking at this cover.

It's obvious 'Ye is going to destroy Fiddy in first week album sales, but who really cares anymore? It's like wondering which douchebag is going to pop his collar first.

Ye samples kid charlemagne but i still prefer Boo Boo

Jesus Christ. Kid Rock is still alive and putting out albums?? Will even one person buy it? Seriously, who? Springsteen must feel dirty just having his name printed that close.

Again with the goddamn white background.

ahhh I so knew that was coming. yay H2O love.

Another non-sports related post, except that, damn it, this is serious man to man combat here.  This is a bigger battle than anything happening in sports right now!The background, once again: This past Tuesday (yesterday), the two biggest names in hip-hop in terms of album sales, Kanye West...
