Rich Gang‘s Young Thug has reacted to singer Erykah Badu comparing his No My Name Is Jeffery cover artwork to OutKast‘s Andre 3000‘s fashion sense.
Thugger went to Instagram Sunday (August 28) and shouted out Badu for the acknowledgement.
This past weekend, Atlanta rapper T.I. revealed what Thug told him about his dress-looking artwork.
Thugger’s designer has since come forward to address the headlines the cover art has generated.
Alessandro Trincone, the Italian designer behind the outfit the rapper Young Thug wore on his new “No My Name Is Jeffery” album cover, was just as stunned as the rest of the world when he saw the final result, if not more. “When I saw the cover image, here in Italy it was around 2:30 a.m., and I was completely shocked,” said Trincone from his very-much-interrupted summer vacation on a remote island. “I couldn’t sleep because of the feelings that I felt,” he continued. “The next day, my mobile went out because of notifications, emails, and more than 200 new followers on Instagram. My first question was: ‘Why is he going to wear my outfit? Why my outfit? Why me?'” (W Magazine)
Last week, Young Thug unveiled his jaw-dropping cover.
