Fans Troll NBA Youngboy For Copying Roddy Ricch’s Album Cover Artwork

Fans Say NBA Youngboy’s New Album Cover Art Is Copying Roddy Ricch

NBA Youngboy is currently trending on Twitter over a lookalike album cover he shared online. The Baton Rouge rapper took to twitter to announce an upcoming album, TOP, scheduled to arrive on September 11, complete with 18 new songs.

He made the announcement with a photo of himself, for what is presumed to be the album cover, at least for the time being, as it stands-in on streaming services as well.

The black and white photo shows Youngboy looking up into the camera just barely, a sort of unbothered yet menacing look on his face. Younboy wears a black long-sleeve shirt with a pair of chains.

But folks online were quick to spot the similarities with the album cover for Roddy Ricch‘s debut, ‘Please Excuse Me For Being Anti-Social’. Fans on Twitter have been reacting to the album cover, trolling Youngboy for copying Roddy Ricch.

However, some of the rapper’s fans are defending him by noting that Roddy isn’t the first person to use the black and white image. But they’re made known that Youngboy copies more than just Roddy’s visual portrayal.
