To no surprise, Kanye West has decided to go against the grain for the cover art on his forthcoming sixth studio album.

The Grammy-winning artist knows how to keep his fans guessing. Last week, girlfriend Kim Kardashian tweeted a picture of what everyone thought was the album’s artwork before his appearance on “Saturday Night Live.” Looks like the joke was on us.

“Yeezus,” which includes tracks like “Black Skinheads” and “New Slaves,” is set to hit stores on June 18.
