Kanye West fans have proven too hungry to wait for the official release of Graduation, as the rapper's highly anticipated third album hit the web yesterday (August 30).

For weeks, Graduation has been a hot topic, particularly since the album shares a release date with 50 Cent's newest project Curtis. With Kanye in hot competition with 50 Cent, this particular leak may prove particularly ill-timed.

The album, which is due in stores on September 11, features Mos Def, Coldplay singer Chris Martin, T-Pain, Lil' Wayne, Daft Punk and DJ Premier.

While file-sharing sites carrying the release have had their Kanye links quickly deleted, the number of copies already downloaded is impossible to track. With the SoundScan showdown just two weeks away, the leak's effects on 50's and Kanye's competition will be revealed soon enough.

Fellow G.O.O.D. Music artist, Common also experienced a leak of his album FindingForever in July. However, when the album hit stores on August 7, Com debuted in the #1 spot on the Billboard 200 charts for the first time ever. Kanye West'sGraduation hits stores on September 11.
