Kanye tweeted out the invite artwork, designed by Nick Night.

During the Lowe interview, Kanye talked about his relation to Nebuchadnezzar, saying:

“[God] is saying, Let me take this Nebuchadnezzar-type character—Nebuchadnezzar was the king of Babylon, and he looked at his entire kingdom and said, I did this...I stood on the top of the mountain talking about Yeezus, saying, ‘I’m a God’—I had a guy dressed as Jesus.”
