Rap-Up.com || Lil Wayne Unveils ‘I Am Not a Human Being II’ Cover, Announces New Release Date

Lil Wayne unveils the cover art for his new album I Am Not a Human Being II. A red insect resembling a butterfly appears against a black backdrop on the unconventional artwork, which was designed by DONDA, the creative content company founded by Kanye West.

Previously due February 19, the follow-up to 2011’s I Am Not a Human Being will now arrive on March 26 featuring the Detail-assisted single “No Worries,” plus contributions from Juicy J, David Banner, StreetRunner, Kane Beatz, and Cool & Dre.

While Kanye didn’t produce on the album, he asked Wayne if he could design the artwork. “I’ma let ‘Ye do what he do. As long as it ain’t nothin’ out the box crazy. ‘Ye is ‘Ye, he’s a genius,” Weezy previously told MTV.

DONDA also designed the artwork for Wayne’s Mike WiLL Made It-produced single “Love Me” featuring Drake and Future. See it below.

What do you think of the cover art? Sound off below.

That’s a month on the cover, looks like a skull or sad clown face on top of it.. Same black drop as 2Chainz Album.. I can visualize it being distinctly tripp you out who ever decides to buy it….

Amanda the Diva,when she interviewed Wayne recently, said she listened to some of the songs for this album &Wayne was going Carter 2 flow on this Album.. Both singles don’t live up to that… I hope it’s a solid album & lives up to the Album name & Wayne potential .. Cuz C4, aside from Intro & Outro, was trash

Mr. West needs to change up his style a little bit. He always uses red letters or a red image against a black backdrop, with the parental advisory sticker in the middle.

@randy, Well I am not paranoid nor am I a loser. There have been books written about this for well over 200 years (Including the bible). They talk about these kinds of things. You should do your research and really open your eyes (not youtube). I am not saying Lil Wayne is an illuminati member but I do believe that they are using him with a whole host of other entertainers to push a bigger agenda. I mean look a politics and how many people use their position for personal or hidden agendas. Also you should not get so upset. Just my personal view.

@Rasan8250, research what? the guy has a butterfly from his movie as an album cover and you’re talking about secret forces. get a fucking grip. you see what you want to see… not what is actually there. you’re been programmed by the internet. the bible speaks so vaguely and arbitrarily that you could apply those teachings to anything. I could argue that they were talking about rap-up.com if i wanted to. that would make it true. people like you dont have enough real life probelms so you tell on dumb shit that has no affect on your life or anybody you know. you probably thought the world was going to end last year and that this “secret society” was going to be behind it. time to find something real to believe in.

@rere, As I stated man my opinion. By the way man why do you even care what you think, why did you even bother to comment on what I have to say? You people now anydays always so huffing when somebody does not see things the way you do. Besides all conspiracy aside this guys best work is far far far behind him. This cover will be the most interesting thing about this project believe me. Now if you have a problem with that please seek therapy and a life.

The great thing about hidden in plain sight is that you can get away with anything because the majority of the people who listen to hip hop dont even really pay attention to what the hell the message really is in a video. All you need is some big titty women throw in some cars and jewelry make it sound cool and everyone bobs their head to the beat. Anyways the cover is a monarch butterfly and if trying to argue y there is so much to back it up as to why it really is and how it is evil. I mean are you people really that ignorant not to notice whats going on around you. Lil Wayne has a upside down cross on his forhead sign of the devil and baby went and got a red inverted star on his head which is the sign of bahopomet. Wakeup seriously and do some research
