Music Cover Art for Jay-Z's Blueprint 3
Posted by Benjamin Sutton on Tue, Aug 4, 2009 at 3:11 PM
The cover of Jay-Z's upcoming Blueprint 3 (out September 11) popped up online last night and, well, here it is (click for larger version):
Doesn't it look suspiciously similar to the cover of the deluxe edition of the recent U2 album No Line on the Horizon? Also, notice the absence of Jay-Z (his face has appeared on the cover of all his preceding albums), and the lack of blue. Otherwise it's pretty cool, I guess. In other Blueprint 3-related news, 50 Cent got some sense talked into him and pushed the release of Before I Self-Destruct back to September 29.

There's also a tentative track list (which will no doubt change to avert leaks and such):

Here's a video of Jay-Z explaining the cover design. He has a hard time articulating the concept, and when he finally does it sounds kinda dumb:
