If you’re still looking for a pink forehead diamond of your own, fret not; Lil Uzi Vert and HUMAN MADE have got you covered.
Earlier this year, Lil Uzi Vert shocked the world when he decided to make anime his reality and implant a $24 million diamond in his forehead (as you do). Whether or not the obscenely pricey jewel remains planted in his head, the statement lives on as a characteristic of the rapper’s flamboyant style. Remember: “no stylist.”
Teased via HUMAN MADE founder Nigo’s Instagram and reposted to Uzi’s personal story, the collection will seemingly immortalize the infamous diamond as the accessory of a playful bat motif. It’s not as workwear-y as HUMAN MADE’s usual output but no one knows lifestyle product better than the BAPE founder, anyways.
The illustration — which is unmistakably of Nigo’s own hand — is accompanied by text that reads “BRIDGE BETWEEN HUMAN AND INHUMAN.” Given the artist’s continued efforts to present himself as otherworldly (trying to buy a planet, anyone?), this could be seen as a statement from Uzi, asserting himself as that bridge between humanity and the inhuman.
While the teasers give little away regarding the scale of the collaboration, or when we can expect it, we can gauge that it will include pink hoodies and plush pillows.
Whether Lil Uzi Vert truly is the bridge between human and inhuman or if he succeeds in being the first-ever human to purchase a planet, his moves are always worth watching, and this collaborative drop is no exception.
