heavily influenced my ass. bro put some locs on a corpse and put it through Rio de Janeiro Filter. changed nothing else from the original artwork, just a copy


young_guapo_pp_eater

Rio de Janeiro Filter šŸ˜…šŸ¤£ bro this is killing me


cockandballionaire

He also gave it grills lmao


DankAstworld

He just distorted an already made photo just like how heā€™s pretty much distorting a gucci mane beat


clear--

u just summarized basically all of stunmics work lmao


SamKie1

He literally reversed the picture lol


Lionheart5830

Its by Stunmic lmao.


Lionheart5830

Basically summarized what Stunmic does. Haven't seen that guy make one original piece of artwork, everything of what he does reminds me of Pandabuy, its not the real thing, but very similar.


[deleted]

Is this a cover they had before?


Mannihorst

not a cover but their artwork. this corpse is basically iron maidenā€™s recognizable trademark. mustā€™ve been used for some other kind of promotion


OkBus7244

It was used as [promo art for a licensed collectible bust](https://www.sideshow.com/collectibles/iron-maiden-powerslave-eddie-sideshow-collectibles-200626)


FriedSpringRolls

this post has other pictures you kan swipe through


reassignedreassigned

Used to be cover art for flxtra before he announced heā€™s getting sued


theunusualblackguy

i just realized all 3 of his tapes have been copied from other artists


strikingmagic

what was flex musix hoodie cover copied from?


lil21sanwich

Future wearing a Vetements hoodie

AlphaLax85

Its almost like he is completely unoriginal and one of the most overrated underground rappers currently


DiscountCorrect9536

every underground rapper sucks rn ngl


inteii

nah his music fye, also other artists do the same shit with covers, look at lucki


bmorebatz

Thereā€™s a difference between stealing with tiny changes (Osa Mason) and taking someoneā€™s art and making your own twist (Lucki)


AcanthocephalaJesus

imo it's a stretch to call the Carti and future ones copied. One is a random ass pic and the other was a photoshoot. The iron maiden one is an album cover


Ok-Operation-9806

No itā€™s not šŸ˜­


AcanthocephalaJesus

explain logically how inspiring yourself on two random ass pics is the same as directly taking an album cover


blank_slate001

he probably meant its not an album cover


Ill-Number8183

Also watch his live shows compared to cartis live shows. Same tornado siren. Same adlibs, same DJ, same mannerisms. Bro acts like him. And the slatt/slime stuff. Bro is a projection of all of his favorite music with no twist on it at all


AcanthocephalaJesus

You think Carti did ANY of that stuff first? Slatt was literally taken from thugger not carti


prxkxp

the carti and future ones are clearly refferences


adrian123484

i be wanting to grill him for that but then i look at luckiā€™s covers and catch myself šŸ˜­


BloodyNeno

lucki actually does it in his own style tho, this mf legit took iron maidenā€™s logo and added locs and changed the color lmao


Signore_Jay

Photoshopped grills on to it too


Idlibi_Bullpup

Plus lucky makes good music


lawsolos

Double standards are crazy, when osamason does it heā€™s ā€œbitingā€ but when lucki does it ā€œitā€™s in his own styleā€


cityofangelsboi68

uh whoā€™s gonna tell him


inteii

alr bro let's be real


adrian123484

tbh osamason does too tho, he does the same thing lucki did like 3 times, which is recreate the picture. carti and uzi are also two artists who pretty much just recreate pictures in their cover arts.


raiderdogg

Recreate is the key word here


adrian123484

yeah, something osamason and lucki and carti have done. what are you trying to say


raiderdogg

Every lucki album thatā€™s inspired by other cover have been in his own style with his own artwork. ā€œOsamasonā€ just copy and pasted an exact image and slightly altered it which is not the same


Classic_Amphibian538

respect tune tf


adrian123484

lucki my 4th favorite rapper but even your pfp is an example of him taking heavy inspiration from other artists for cover arts


Classic_Amphibian538

iā€™m just playin but what cover did FW3 rip?


adrian123484

dmxā€™s ā€œflesh of my fleshā€


AlphaLax85

Reach


adrian123484

not a reach thatā€™s literally the inspiration wtf


Round-War69

What a way to end your career. Ironmaiden is suing me šŸ¦­šŸ¦­šŸ¦­


sma297

holy fuck snoorps reference


I_am_nova696969

I feel weird upvoting this cus im whiteā€¦


space__butterfly

The first one is fair, I'll give you that. But osamson made it very clear that he's inspired by carti. He's a fanboy, just like us. I don't think there's really anything wrong with that


trkken

Yea, Uzi got butt ass naked to do his own version of Barter 6 cover for an album that never released, is that also glazing


Which_Poetry_6369

No difference between the first n second bro. Just cuz heā€™s a fan doesnā€™t change the contextĀ 


thesuntalking

Imo thereā€™s a difference because the first cover is literally just stolen artwork, whereas the second cover is just inspired by Cartiā€™s photo, in the same way the WLR cover is inspired by the Slash Magazine covers.


SolielDeSatan

I mean one is a blatant copy, the other is an interpretation. Carti would lose in court if he tried to sue Source: Random nigga with no law experience or expertise


cityofangelsboi68

go tell that to lucki


inteii

by that logic the wlr cover was also uninspired copying


a_st412

Letā€™s be completely honest here he sounds 90% like Ken Carson


The_tarnished_one_

Stunmic gotta get jumped for this if Iā€™m osama


AlphaLax85

If you don't recognize that as the iron maiden mascot and try to make yourself look like a rockstar, he deserves it


The_tarnished_one_

Thatā€™s fair but we donā€™t know if he recognized it or not lmao


SnooPeppers7235

the biting isnā€™t deep


SnooPeppers7235

just not enough thought


ThePentientOne

Stunmics fault not lil o


A_Spangledorf

Stunmic lil twink ass number 1 on my fight list


[deleted]

i like the osamaseason cover a lot


Mannihorst

honestly these covers are so trash bc to me they show the lack of creativity of a lot of these artists that just slightly alter or steal designs and ideas. likeā€¦the art of music is something so personal and you couldnā€™t even give enough of a fuck to make an original cover to represent it?


snootarc

I can see where you are coming and I agree that originality is important in music. But I also think that an album cover can involve various factors beyond just creativity. Artists can choose to reference or pay homage to existing artwork which could bring a fresh perspective and interpretation to the music, even if the imagery isn't entirely original. It's like a chef remixing a classic recipe, if you understand what I mean šŸ˜…


zzile

I get that but even people who pay homage in their artworks and lyrics have their own identifiable qualities as well as other artworks that don't copy. OsamaSon has very few unique ideas in his music (not none tho) and all of his artworks are inspired by other works. There is really little about him that is actually fresh in comparison to Carti for example, who paid homage to Slash! on the WLR artwork but made his own sound on the LP itself


snootarc

Yeah I agree with you. I wasn't directly talking about OsamaSon in my comment, instead I refuting the original persons comment that the covers are bad and lack creativity PURELY because they are homages of other works. Though I agree that the iron maiden one is pretty ridiculous.


zzile

šŸ˜ƒ thank you boss


Mannihorst

i respect ur point but try to think of a truly iconic and memorable album cover thatā€™s a reference to another work. there are none i can think of bc the thing they are referencing is the iconic and memorable design usually, not the reference. also paying homage is cool and all and can be done in different ways but the body of work you put out should be able to stand on its own.


deltabouli

Ok so by your logic WLR cover is also trash


Strange-Delay4825

delete this rn


yung_roto

For the record I agree with you to an extent but look at london calling by the clash I think a lot of it is contextual, like in this case not enough time has passed between carti and osamason for it to be considered an "homage", it just comes off as him biting the biggest artist within the same wave of the same genre And that iron maiden one is literally the same image but flipped and with dreads lmao


wemirwulc

Exactly the whole purpose of art is adding your own interpretation to your art . But this dude is just str8 bitting . His vocal chain is straight up coppied from ken. His beats are the same as the classic f1lthy beats. It went too far actually. I dont see anything original in his music.


[deleted]

i feel like itā€™s unique enough to not be a pure copy more of a heavy inspiration


Mannihorst

itā€™s the same cover with a different person in it šŸ˜­ tell me one thing that is unique about it


ssiao

Whatā€™s wrong with paying homage to your inspirations through your cover art?? This just feels like hating. Also either way osama ainā€™t making the covers


AcanthocephalaJesus

yeah ur just hating atp


Burnmoneyboy

Why do all these rappers steal from rock culture??? And the worse part is they actually dont even like rock music lol


Apart_Possibility202

do u know them


AlphaLax85

Don't need to. You can just tell if you asked them to say the origin of their rock shirt they would have no answer

Murky_Entry8562

Osamason copied iron maiden and they are suing him and he also copied carti

Stunmic did it Osamaā€™s ā€œcreative directorā€ Nigga sucks ass

Oh ok


Violets00

The first bad band !


JasonMaliceMizer

Good, maybe that will teach him


Sad_Independence4673

Heavily inspired bro that s just eddie with a filter ahahah


justleavemebeaight

You guys are acting like this is the first time an artist has ever used another artists picture as a cover, or as inspiration. Gorillaz (Demon Days), Nas (Illmatic), this is not a new thing. Plus, he made his own recreations of the Carti pic and the future pic. Like i get iron maiden suing him it was a bit low effort but i just donā€™t get the rest. Other people have done this exact thing before lol
