Q: What's blacker and whiter and listened to all overer? (or: Is our Kanyes graduating?)

LEAKED: Kanye West's Graduation, which you can preorder here. A shoddy rip of the clean release surfaced last night, with the explicit, "scene" version leaking this afternoon (as reported by Calico Jak).

Kanye discussed the album Tuesday at a listening party in New York (video here, via marah). Haven't watched the clip yet, but MTV's site says he "talks with the crowd... about how rappers are the new preachers and his new album is both 'whiter' and 'blacker.'" Hopefully he also apologizes for the hideous jacket art.
