Artwork

A friend of Smokepurpp came up with the idea for the album art from infamous punk rock artist GG Allin. On Purpp's album cover, he's seen in a coffin, surrounded by a newspaper clipping, photos of himself, alcohol and a lean bottle. This mimics an infamous photo of the punk rocker at his funeral. Allin died in 1993 due to a heroin overdose and was photographed at his funeral in his coffin with a bottle of Jim Beam and newspaper clippings surrounding him. His corpse was unwashed and unpreserved while wearing his leather jacket and jock strap (a trademark of his).^[3]
