Considering his well-publicised stunts and antics - most of which have only helped his career - West could very well adopt "controversial" as his middle name. But if 21 Grammy awards are anything to go by, the guy's not just all talk. Following the ballsy Banksy-esque promotion that saw West's face projected onto buildings around the world, his sixth studio album, Yeezus, is indeed poised to make its voice heard loudly and clearly.
