Kanye West Changes Title, Artwork of Controversial 'Theraflu' Single

After last week's premiere of the track Theraflu on New York radio station Hot 97, rapper Kanye West has announced that he'schanging the title of the song featuring DJ Khaled to Way Too Cold.

Wests label Island Def Jam issued a press release on Saturday to notify of the change, calling it a creative decision. The company which produces the over-the-counter cold and flu remedy of the same name reportedly took issue with West's use of their brand, telling TMZ, "We in no way endorse or approve of the references or use of the image and likeness of Theraflu in this manner."

The singles artwork, drawn by George Condo, who created the cover to Wests My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, while altered slightly (see image below) from the Theraflu version, has also elicited its share of controversy for featuring a womans bare breasts.

The lyrics, meanwhile, which include the line Tell PETA my mink is dragging on the floor, raised the ire of the animal rights organization. "What's draggin on the floor is Kanye's reputation as a man with no empathy for animals or human beings, PETA responded in an April 5 statement. Hes a great musician but doesnt seem to have the fashion sense to design anything more than caveman costumes. We keep hoping that one day hell find his heart and join evolved style icons-- including Rus! sell Sim mons, Pink, and Natalie Portman-- who have dropped animal skins."
