Abstract

"By now, everyone interested in contemporary Hip Hop culture and Rap music has seen the “dress” that Young Thug wears on the cover of his new self-titled album Jeffery. To see a man in a dress, especially in rap and hip-hop culture is a rare sight... Interestingly, there is another perspective I would like to bring to the table. Maybe it is a result of PhD overload (yes, I am doing my PhD on grime music), but with my research, especially on music and religion, the 'dress' looked vaguely familiar to me."
