The artwork for Pop Smoke‘s posthumous debut album, Shoot for the Stars, Aim for the Moon, was revealed yesterday and fans on social media quickly rejected the creation done by Virgil Abloh. In fact, 50 Cent, who is involved in the project, had some words for the fashion designer as well following the fiasco.

After promoting the upcoming album via Instagram last night (June 29), 50 questioned who did the cover and once he found out, he shared his thoughts. “Man who did this cover,” Fif wrote in the comment section of his own post. He then wrote a follow-up message: “OK fuck Virgil he’s our of here lol.”
The Queens, N.Y. native also wrote Virgil via IG this morning (June 30), saying that the cover needs to be redone. “Hey Virgil we need new album art, they ain’t going for this bullshit,” he said. “Love ya work let’s get to it. Steven i told you this shit was eww let get it right!”
Hours after the artwork was made public, Steven Victor, founder of Victor Victor Worldwide—the label Pop was signed to prior to his passing—took the fans’ reactions into account and said that a change is going to be made.
“H E A R D Y O U,” Steven tweeted. “B R B. MAKING A CHANGE. POP WOULD LISTEN TO HIS FANS !.”

You know why you love pop your voices are loud and clear he loved his fans and listened to his fans pop and we at victor victor h e a r d you l o u d and clear – changes will be made see you July 3rd 2020.”
Virgil has removed the image from his social media as well.

Bianca Censori Defies Hotel Dress Code in Scandalous Style with Kanye West

Earlier this week, Bianca Censori and her husband Kanye West were spotted at the iconic Chateau Marmont for lunch. The Australian model, known for her daring fashion choices, turned heads yet again with her provocative outfit. Censori sported a tiny pair of shorts, black heels, and a revealing white bikini top, which undoubtedly caught the attention of both onlookers and the hotel staff.
Despite Chateau Marmont’s strict business casual dress code, Censori’s nearly nude appearance did not elicit any complaints from the staff. This is not the first time Censori has pushed fashion boundaries at the luxury hotel. Earlier this month, she made headlines by arriving in a thong and later in a sheer nude mini dress paired with long stockings, heels, and a tan hat, while Kanye shielded her from photographers.
As of now, Chateau Marmont has not commented on Censori’s repeated dress code violations. What do you think of Bianca Censori’s scandalous fashion statements at the Chateau Marmont? Share your thoughts in the comments and stay tuned to Honk Magazine for more updates.

Keke Palmer Defends Tyler Perry Amid Misogyny Backlash, “The Real Enemy is the System!”

In a recent episode of her podcast Baby, This is Keke Palmer, Keke Palmer hosted Tyler Perry, sparking intense discussions online. Perry’s comments, addressing long-standing criticisms that his films often depict Black women in distress, went viral. Defending his creative choices, Perry stated, “A large portion of my fans are disenfranchised. Who cannot get in the Volvo and go to therapy on the weekend. You’ve got this highbrow negro who is all up in the air with his nose up looking at everything… Don’t discount these people and say their stories don’t matter. Who are you to be able to say which Black story is important, or should be told? Get out of here with that bullsh*t.”
Perry’s remarks led to significant backlash, including accusations of misogyny. In response, Keke Palmer took to social media platform X to defend Perry. She argued that critics are misdirecting their anger. “The enemy isn’t Tyler, it’s the system that makes it hard for multiple black artists to shine at one time,” Palmer asserted. “Oppression turns you against the person that gets the shine opposed to questioning why there can only be so few at a time. Tyler is not the gatekeeper of all black stories; he’s just one creative who broke through the system. Advocating for others to do the same is the fight, not hating Tyler for his work that many do love.”
Palmer also highlighted Perry’s significant contributions to the Black community in a follow-up tweet, noting his employment of numerous Black individuals and urging followers not to “blame his movies for oppression.”
