Album artwork matters. With that in mind, let’s be honest: Kanye West’s Yeezus artwork leaves a lot to be desired. Hell, it leaves everything to be desired. However, taking Def Jam’s suggestion to “Please add graffiti,” Kanye’s hordes of loyal fans have set to work to fill that gap.

Of course, we’re only concerned with the former. Take a look at 5 of the best homemade Yeezus covers below.
