Ray J shamelessly put out his new song featuring Bobby Brackins, "I Hit it First," two days ago, and it's obvious that he's talking about Kim Kardashian. The single cover resembles a popular paparazzi photo of Kim K at the beach in a bikini, and it immediately went viral.
While some are still asking, "Why did Ray J release this song, showing that he's probably just hung up on Kim and super bitter about how rich and awesome she is post-hitting it?", we're asking, "Why did he use that image?" After all, Kim K's one of the most-photographed celebrities, and not just because she takes a lot of selfies or dates Kanye now.
In our opinion, Kim won this one. By showing you how many other hot photos of her Ray J could have used for his album art, we're showing you that even if he hit it first, she's the one still killin' it.
15 Photos Ray J Should Have Used for the "I Hit it First" Cover

Kim Eating Ice Cream
This covers the bases of being hot, kinda weird, and unexpected, which we feel like Ray J was going for.
Kim on a Rollercoaster
This pic of Kim on a rollercoaster (with Kanye) stops time. "I Hit it First" would have been way better with a photo as hilarious as this one.
Kim as Poison Ivy
Kim K as Poison Ivy...enough said, right?
Kim as Wonderwoman
Kim K is wonderwoman and looks incredible saving the world. This would have been perfect for "I Hit it First."
Kim Crying
Just because Kim K's crying pics are ubiquitous, doesn't mean that they don't deserve the single art treatment.
Kim Eating Room Service
If Ray J really wanted to get people mad (read: all the dudes that "hit it" after him), maybe he should have used this pic that Kanye tweeted and immediately deleted (supposedly)?
Kim in a Catsuit
This is definitely one of Kim K's hottest costumes. Why didn't Ray J use this pic?
Kim Playing Football
So the original bikini photo works, but bikini + football playing shows that you're serious.
Kim Sunburnt
Kim's so open about being a normal human being who gets sunburnt that Ray J could have easily taken a shot at how funny this looks. Of course, he didn't.
Kris...Oh Wait
This was an accident, but if Ray J was really trying to shock people, he'd just go ahead and use a photo of Kris Jenner. RIGHT?
The Kardashians
Again, SHOCKER. Why didn't he just go right ahead and say he "hit it first" with a pic of all the sisters?
Kim as a Pirate
Who could deny Kim as a pirate? Again, this really trumps Ray J's original choice.
Kim as a Mermaid
Kim's costume game is consistently on another level. When she and Kanye dressed up as a mermaid and sailor, it was a moment for life.
Kim on a Boat
This boat shot is ridiculous. Even if she's not explicitly in a bikini, this looks like album art from first glance.
Kim by the Pool
Kim Instagrammed this photo a few months ago for a reason. She's proud of her assets. Since Ray J is, too, maybe he should have kept it simple and used a rear shot for "I Hit it First."
