Kanye West's "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" album set to release Nov 22


Kanye West's dark fantasies are finally coming to light: after a highly-acclaimed "SNL" performance, the firebrand rapper officially announced the title of his fifth album on Twitter Tuesday morning.

"The official album title is and always was ........ MY BEAUTIFUL DARK TWISTED FANTASY," West tweeted, in reference to early reports that the album would be called "A Good A-- Job."

"The first song on the album is called Dark Fantasy produced my The Rza co-produced by me and No I.D," he added.

The album will also include some "G.O.O.D. Friday" tracks that West has been releasing for free over the past several weeks, and the recently-leaked "All of the Lights."

"I ain't letting no leaks have any affect on my song choices," West tweeted. "All of the Lights is the next single but wait till yall here the final!!!!!"

West had announced the album's Nov. 22 release date in a Twitter post on Monday.

Meanwhile, West's sometimes-enemy Taylor Swift released the title track from her new album, "Speak Now," on iTunes Tuesday.

The pair drew storms of controversy in 2009 after West stole the microphone from Swift at the MTV Video Music Awards. The backlash from the incident briefly drove the rapper out of the public eye.
