This is the most interesting site design I’ve ever seen. It is all about exploration and discovery. When I stumbled upon it, it was rather plain which immediately peaked my curiosity. As I investigated around the screen, I slowly found links to other parts of the site, seen only when my mouse moved over them. Possibly, Kanye is attempting to make a metaphor about who he is as a person. Maybe.

From what I’ve seen so far, it is more of a massive blog than anything else. Nonetheless, it is beautiful in its design and ingeniousness.
For all he says and does that annoys, he does the most creative things that make me say “Now thats beautiful.”

The new website “looks nice” and is aesthetically pleasing but on a usability and user experience level it's abysmal! No one wants to go to a website where they play hide and go seek with something simple like navigation.
I mean the execution and Kanye ideology on this aside, to do something like this could of been flawlessly but in a way that allows the user to feel in control of their experience on the website. (Pick a website you love and you probably feel like this everyday).
I cannot stand the lack of sensible UI/UX with this redesign.
