Is the Game's "Jesus Piece" Cover Art Too Offensive?
Game's fifth studio album, Jesus Piece,
is one the most anticipated hip-hop albums of 2012 boasting features
from Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Chris Brown and more. And when it comes to
the album's freshly revealed cover art, the Game ... well, let's just
say he doesn't shy away from controversy.
The Compton-bred rapper unveiled his Jesus Piece artwork via Instagram today and some of his fans think he went too far. The stained glass-inspir ed image shows Jesus sitting on a throne adorned with gang-inspire d
symbols. Not only does His Holiness sport Game's signature Jesus Piece
bling around his neck, but he also dons a teardrop tattoo under his
right eye and a red bandana over his mouth, references to the Compton
Blood gang.
One fan called it "blasphemous " and said they wouldn't "listen to this anti Semitic bull crap." Another called it "really disrespectfu l!" Some lauded the controversia l
cover saying that it's what they expected from the rapper known for
pulling at one's strings, and that he was "giving Kanye West a run for
his money with the creativity, one of a kind cover." (Similarly, Game's
last album, The R.E.D. Album fell under gang-related scrutiny. BET and MTV infamously pulled his "Red Nation" video from the air for being too gang-affilia ted.)
"Jesus Piece gives me an opportunity to speak about situations that people like me who love God but are still street and still wanna remain themselves without going the Pastor Mase route." Game told VIBE about the album's title. "It gives the opportunity to know that it's somebody out there that feels them."
So that leaves us with this question for VIBE readers: Are you feelin' Game's Jesus Piece cover art, or do you think the rapper went too far? VIBE NEWS

Is Kendrick Lamar's 'Good Kid, M.A.A.d City' The Most Important Debut Since 'Illmatic'?
As album debuts go, Nas’ landmark 1994 Illmatic has taken to otherworldly status even within the pantheon of towering hip-hop statements.

Lil Wayne on His Comments About New York: "I Don’t Even Know the Reaction"
Lil Wayne may cause the hip-hop world to react off his in-the-momen t comments, but it doesn't phase him. Really. In fact, Weezy isn't even aware of the commotion he caused by stating that "he hates New York." He hasn't heard Fabolous' "So NY" and could care less what anyone has to say about it. He recently told MTV News:
“I have to be honest with you, dog: All I do is work, and I swear to God, I don’t even know the reaction. If I knew the reaction I’d know how to be able to answer that question, but I don’t know the reaction. I just say what I want to say, do what I want to do and fuck who don’t like it.”
