On Wednesday, Kanye ‘Ye’ West unveiled the terrifying cover of his forthcoming 11th studio album Bully, which was photographed by 86-year-old Japanese photographer Daidō Moriyama.
The partially black grill on the mystery model appeared to be inspired by the 47-year-old rapper-designer’s $850K titanium teeth he commissioned back in January.
Ye enlisted Beverly Hills dentist Thomas Connelly and master dental technician Naoki Hayashi to create the experimental, expensive mouthpiece inspired by the iconic James Bond villain, Jaws.
An insider told DailyMail.com at the time that they were permanent dental implants: ‘Ye has had the bulk of his teeth shaved down to little tombstones, which is standard procedure for veneers.’
But the heavily-tattooed 51-year-old dentist – whose other clients include Travis Barker and Post Malone – later clarified to Complex: ‘He did not have his teeth removed. He still has a full dentition. Healthy and happy.’

On August 13, Milo Yiannopoulos made an outrageous claim that Dr. Connelly got the 24-time Grammy winner hooked on ‘$50K/month’ nitrous oxide, and he would ‘hand deliver tanks of the laughing gas to him at the Chateau Marmont.’
The 40-year-old former Yeezy Apparel chief-of-staff tweeted an alleged screenshot of a text exchange between the pair and he submitted a sworn affidavit to the California Dental Board in an effort to get Dr. Connelly’s license revoked.
Ye and his second wife Bianca Censori have moved to Tokyo for a ‘fresh chapter’ where he’s ‘living in a hotel hard at work on his next album Bully’ without any other producers but himself – journalist Touré said on TikTok October 11.
The prolific hip-hop star has not yet announced a release date for Bully but he already released two ¥$ collaborative albums – Vultures 1 and Vultures 2 – with Ty Dolla Sign on February 10 and August 3 this year.
Meanwhile, Ye’s ex-wife Kim Kardashian is ‘pretty much a single mom’ now since he’s ‘not around’ to co-parent their four children – son Saint, 8; son Psalm, 5; daughter Chicago, 6; and daughter North, 11.
‘Although she has help, it’s still a lot of work for her to balance and coordinate everything,’ a source told People on Monday.
‘Kim’s life is around her kids’ schedules. When they are in school, she works. When they are off, she’s very much focused on being a mom. She is not even dating anyone now. It’s all about work and the kids.’
The Beauty and the Beast rapper pays the 44-year-old reality star $200K/month in child support as part of their 20/80 custody arrangement – according to TMZ.
Since June, Ye – who suffers from bipolar disorder – has been facing a shocking sexual assault lawsuit from his former assistant Lauren Piscotta (2021-2022), who updated the legal docs last Friday.
