My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy - $3.99

Kanye West released his hyped fifth studio album, 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy' today, and is selling the 13-track offering for a cool $3.99 on Amazon. 

This past September, West tweeted that Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke made his list of the coolest creative people in the world. Radiohead famously shook the music industry in 2007 when they...

...released their seventh studio album 'In Rainbows' with a name-your-price sales tag. While, you'll still have to shovel out four Washingtons for the MP3 version of Yeezy's 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy,' and the hard copy will cost you the average price $9, West has been releasing select tracks from the album for free, namely 'So Appalled' and 'Devil in a New Dress,' weekly in the two months leading up to the new album's release as part of his G.O.O.D. Fridays.

It is unknown how long the album will be priced at $3.99, or how long the free MP3s will stay up on his website. One thing is for sure, with major publications like NME and Rolling Stone giving the album high honors, 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy' is living up to its hype and poised for the top.
