Gucci Mane plans to be visible this year.
Just a day removed after announcing his fifteenth studio album in Woptober 2, the fashionable rap star has revealed that the presented cover art stems from the Gucci Cruise campaign.
Proud to announce my #GucciCruise20 Collection with @gucci!!!” La Flare exclaimed on Instagram. “Yo @alessandro_michele this collection is crazy ! #HarmonyKorine dope visuals! #ComeAsYouAre_RSVP campaign for the #GucciCruise20 Collection ITS GUCCI!!!!!!!!!!!”
Alessandro Michele is currently Gucci’s creative director and Harmony Korine is a tenured filmmaker, known for writing the 1995 cult classic Kids and directing movies such as Spring Breakers and Gummo (no 6ix9ine).
In the “Come As Your Are RSVP” commercial, Gucci can be spotted preparing for a glitzy party as he takes a phone call in the middle of his Swedish massage. From there, the pearly whites are brandished as he hobnobs with actress Sienna Miller and punk rock messiah Iggy Pop.
News of Gucci Mane’s partnership with his namesake arrives in a year when dozens of rappers partook in a loosely organized Gucci boycott — spearheaded by T.I. — after the luxury brand rolled out a sweater that resembled African American blackface.
In May 2019, Snoop Dogg inquired about the purported ban and the legendary Dapper Dan actually sat down with Gucci and now, Radric Davis is getting paid to rep the Italian fabrics.

Lmfao how quickly the fake outrage is forgotten
True indeed
He never faked it
Gucci Mane was never with the bullshit outrage. T.I. always on internet talkin shit mad cause he’s career is over. Now he start a podcast to talk more shit.
Hold up. I’m no T.I. fan but Gucci did disrespect the fuck out of us with that bullshit.
Who is us? Ghetto lowlives? Cause normal black people dont include themselves in your non sense
Disrespect you with what? I think you so unimportant that you try to be part of something to feel good. He doesn’t even know you exist.
What do you mean by saying ? he disrespected all of us ? I didn’t care about no blackface sweater or any corny shit some racist wants to do and that mindset goes for plenty of people I know and worldwide. Your problem as well as millions of POC is your so damn easy to target with race issues. Politicians used race baiting tactics on you brainwashed left wing nuts all day and you believe anything they say. You along with others set us back a couple hundred years. “Wake up Dummy”
lets play a game of connect the dots
1 trump makes Pres so gucci makes blackface
2 ti leads boycott purposed to impact 1 qtr of sales
3 some blax support, so sales drop significantly in next qtr
4 gucci stages racial sensitivity pow-pow and gucci mane gets a visible deal
the boycott was never for gucci but to show negroes the power we can wield if we choose.
All Blax Win
Blacks are dumb like all other races. Stop thinking anyone is special.. we all just die anyway
Bro thats some real shit
Sell out lol but all fairness hes always been corny
You the corny one here kid
