Y’all know deep down that Damien Hirst didn’t give two damns about this album cover.

Ok so basically I’m going to repost what I said earlier. I invite you to reflect on it and think about the artwork a bit more deeply.
CLB cover art is pretty amazing honestly if you think about it for more than thirty seconds. The duality of it is what impresses me the most. On the one hand, it’s just simple emojis. Seems very low effort. But this is Drake saying that he wants the music to speak for itself first and foremost. He doesn’t need gimmicks, theatrics, or controversy. Unlike some people. Music comes number 1, as it should.
But a second glance also reveals a striking complexity. The use of emojis is Drake commenting on how the digital age has reduced complex emotions and difficult conversations previously held and expressed in person to simple images, emojis. We’ve become brain dead consumers, whose thought has been reduced by corporations to the lowest common denominators that could never possibly capture the full intricacy of our individual thoughts and feelings.
Corporations like Apple attempt to homogenize us into simple unquestioning sacks of flesh, capable of only communicating through grunts in the form of emojis, not much different than our Neanderthal progenitors. This breeds a knuckle dragging populace incapable of thinking critically about the role technology plays in keeping us under heel and subservient to our corporate overlords. Drake invites us to ponder this.
I think he’s also asking us to reflect on the burden women are forced to carry in our society, and how this burden is further complicated by the intersectional oppressions of race and gender, hence the beautiful diversity of women showcased through this art.
Drake effectively makes a statement while simultaneously asking very hard questions about our postmodern society.

pretentious ass take

all you have to say is: ‘i personally think its trash’

thats what im doing

we aint even heard the album yet who are you to say the cover doesn’t have substance?

i'm not going with that "it's a simple cover to let the music speak" mumbo jumbo until i hear that from drake himself lol. i'm sure there's a reason behind him picking the cover, but i'm not at all convinced that it's that.

evidently, these ones 🧍🏽🧍🏽‍♀️

I think all heart emojis wouldve been better but at the end of the day it's the music that matters. Not the cover.

didn’t read but it’s not that deep

What does he usually do in his rollouts that you enjoy?

I expected one more single with the announcement I guess

If you think about it both rollouts got f***ed over this is easiest way to do it

"he has to resort to meme "
"has to resort"

Yall call this genius 😂😂😂

Perspective is a beautiful thing.

it's a quite polarizing cover and i'm sure if i'm into it on aesthetically, but it sure did its job and got the entire internet talking about it, forgetting about recent releases and s***

i still have a feeling this might be a fluke but we'll see

The "official" cover looks completely different than the billboards going up around the world

Just needs the parental sticker and it’s lit tbh

Cover still sucks idc

This might be the greatest troll album cover of all time

Lol it’s still doing it’s job 5 months later

Why would an established artist need to troll for an album cover. S*** is dumb af
