Kanye West has revealed the meaning behind his latest album name, and if you were really hoping TLOP stood for "Terrifying Love of Pizza" or "Totally Livid Over Platypuses," well, we're sorry to disappoint. It's The Life of Pablo, though it's not clear what exactly that means (the Verge notes that West has compared himself to Pablo Picasso in the past). West revealed the title and the track list on Twitter Wednesday night. The album is due out Thursday, Rolling Stone reports, and West is holding a release-day listening party at Madison Square Garden that will be streamed on Tidal. (TLOP has had at least three other names.)
