Kanye West’s Seven-Screen Custom-Built Cinema In Cannes
Kanye West premiered his 30 minute short film Cruel Summer at the Cannes Film Festival last week in a seven-screen cinema, custom-built for the debut. Yeezy was stunting for real when he put this together. The film is about a Lamborghini thief, played by Kid Cudi, who falls in love with “a beautiful, blind Arabic girl whose father will let them marry if he can help her see.” Get a feel for the seven-screen experience by clicking through the images above.

If you’ve been wondering what Kanye’s “immersive seven-screen experience” is all about, check out some pictures above, and get some insight into the plot and details of Kanye’s latest project below, courtesy of Logan Hill:
Cruel Summer is the story of a Lamborghini car thief who falls for a beautiful blind Arabic girl who’s father will let them marry if he can help her see. So he (Kid Cudi) does using strings that lead her around palace to play music.
Kanye West says it’s a work in progress but it’s wildly stylish, huge booming soundtrack, Vanessa beecroft production design. Immersive fun.

Cannes attendees will “experience” Kanye West’s new film foray tonight. The rapper will debut his movie “Cruel Summer” at Le Palm Beach Casino and host an after-party at the Provocateur pop-up club in Palm Beach, which will include a performance by Kid Cudi. The movie is described as an “immersive ‘Seven Screen Experience’ for the eyes and ears unlike anything West has attempted before.” The flick was filmed in Qatar and stars comedian Aziz Ansari and Lebanese actress Razane Jammal, while West is listed as a writer, producer and director.

Kanye West has revealed details on the upcoming G.O.O.D. Music album and film; both will share the name “Cruel Summer”. The Kanye-directed film will debut at Cannes Film Festival on May 23, featuring Kid Cudi among a few other actors, including Aziz Ansari.
After the world premiere of the film at Cannes, the film will remain open to the public for free for two days. If you are going to be in France on May 24-25, head to cruelsummerfilm.com to reserve free tickets.

The 25 Most Anticipated Albums of Summer 2012
1. G.O.O.D Music, TBA
Release Date: N/A
Label: G.O.O.D./Def Jam Producers: Hit-Boy, S1 Collaborations: 2 Chainz Singles: “Mercy”
The G.O.O.D. Music family came into 2012 on a roll. The year 2011 saw strong efforts from a rejuvenated Common and Pusha T, a rise to stardom by Big Sean, and stellar collaborative albums from Kid Cudi (WZRD) and Kanye West (Watch The Throne), respectively. With the additions of Hit Boy and Q-Tip behind the boards, John Legend on keys and vocals, and cats like 2Chainz bringing that ATL trap rap as he did on “Mercy,” we fully expect the G.O.O.D. Music album to set the standard for all hip-hop posse albums to come.
