"I love Andre3000 but I don’t understand"


          


The concept behind this latest launch at all

I mean I know he was reading Deepak Chopra in the Elevators video while I was still in preschool, but unless the schtick here is «I drew an ant and a money stack which symbolizes our incessant existential struggles with and for capitalism, and here it is on a t-shirt and a hoodie», I’m lost

What am I missing?

Could easily be legit. Doesn't mean he has to sell overpriced gear, but if he never publishes or sells anything under Andre 3000 he could lose the rights to the name.

shouldn't it be a joint trademark if it's referencing two people?

cause why not?

still better than Gwyneth Paltrow’s latest Covid cure. She said a $8000 gold necklace was the perfect piece of jewelry for hiking.

TBH the fact that you're even a mod here fits squarely within Jag's narrative of OK-sanctioned aggression, bullying, and toxicity. *shrug*
