Didn't know the words had been switched around. In 2013 there was a story about Kanye recruiting Peter Saville to design a new logo for him. As Saville doesn't appear to be getting credit for this thing, Kanye has almost certainly borrowed the idea, as he clearly knows Saville's work. Clash Music NME
