‘Uy Scutti’ Album Cover Causes 100 Black Satirists To Kill Themselves

NEW YORK, NY—This past Friday, famed American rapper Young Thug released a new album. The cover, revealed only a few hours before the album’s release, has drawn significant controversy for its depiction of Thug in whiteface. Even more, since the album’s release, Thug has went on to post various figures in the rap industry, also, in whiteface.

In response, 100 Black satirists, working out of the 30 Rockefeller offices of Lil’ Mama, have killed themselves. The exact motives are, for now, still unknown, but it’s speculated that the mass suicide was in response to the struggle and frustration of coming up with a take on the situation more absurd and biting than the actual situation itself.

Recovered items from the scene include a smashed-in computer, a paused episode of The Boondocks, and a paper with the headline “Young Thug Trades In Cardigans for Whiteface,” written on it fifty times.

This is a developing story. Check back for updates.
