Posted: July 3, 2007 in: Kanye West | By: Jason |

Complex magazine has enlisted Kanye West to serve as guest editor for its upcoming Fall Fashion issue, which will feature R&B newbie Cassie on the cover.

The August/September issue will see the Louis Vuitton Don in a reverse role. The emcee/producer, who's had his fair share of problems from journalists in the past, will now be in control of conducting the interviews.

In addition to contributing Q & A's, West will also share his commentary in a special section devoted to highlighting his favorites in a wide array of subjects ranging from fashion designers, brands, architects and artists.

Further flexing his editorial muscle, West has also chosen R&B siren Cassie, who's featured in his new video for "Stronger," to grace the issue's cover.

In related news, Ye is gearing up for the release of Graduation in late August, his highly anticipated follow up to Late Registration. The record will include the aforementioned single "Stronger," as well as feature guest appearances from Coldplay's Chris Martin, DJ Toomp, past collaborator Jon Brion, among others.

The August/September issue of Complex magazine will hit newsstands on August 14.
