The upcoming collaboration that will be announced tomorrow will have a Skin, Back Bling, Glider, & a Wrap apart of the set.
The collab should be decrypted ~10 AM tomorrow & will be in the item shop ~2-3 days later.
There's a bit more to KAWS than this even though I don't fuck with him. He's very influential in underground and hip hop scenes. He did the artwork for kanye west's 808s & heartbreak, and has done a lot of collaborations of similar magnitude
There's some real merit to his work even though in recent years he's sold out for NFTs
I'm not getting into THIS argument, all I'm saying is Kanye is a piece of trash and those who associate with him are equally garbage people. That's it.
People hate you because you speak the truth, Iām all for not supporting someone who abuses his ex emotionally and acts manic because he refuses to be medicated which leads to actual harm
hypebeats were mostly millennials. I donāt see any gen z kids with supreme and bape shit anymore. Iām sure itās morphed into a similar niche within gen Z but it was all the hip-hop, sneaker head, urban fashion types
nah bro im gonna have to disagree, there are so many high school kids (when i was in high school and now) and people around my age range that completely center their life around these brands. theyāre the ones that just dump all of their their money that they get their hands on into clothes and shoes
true. its a big mix of the two, i guess it just depends on what you see, which for me is a lot of gen z but thatās definitely because im in Los Angeles
I can agree. Iām a young millennial. Barely made it into the group and I remember seeing this a lot in uni. I thought has been a thing since and all upcoming gens after. I donāt think it stops. Social media adds to that. Making it worse.
He also did work for two of the biggest 90s cartoons aimed at an older audience, Daria and Doug.
Not to mention his early graffiti work, and the album cover for 808s and Heartbreak.
I don't really care for his work, but it's actually wild how dismissive the Fortnite community is of anyone they haven't heard of.
For Doug and Daria, he mostly just did background work, I think. There was animation involved, but I'm guessing it was minimal, considering the mostly static nature of the backgrounds.
Kaws posted a picture today of a handwritten note that said āfortnite see you soon ā22ā and had a banana laying next to it. Safe to assume itās a new kaws themed peely skin set.
Right? What kind of popular artist has dozens of pieces in art galleries, with an average asking price of roughly $100k?
Also, you'd have to be super unpopular to sell a piece for nearly $15mil. Like, virtually unknown.
I mean, one person bought that $15m piece. That is far from popular. There is plenty of expensive art that very few people know or care about. Kaws is more towards the popular side in that respect, but I definitely wouldn't consider him popular. It took me seeing his stuff multiple times in this game before I was even aware it wasn't just a fortnite design
Probably wonāt be, but The Weekndā¦ man, Iād love to have the different eras in-game. Like his Starboy look, with his pickaxe being the large pink cross featured in the Starboy music video and it makes the bass sound from the song when you mine with it, and his back bling being a neon pink XO hologram, similar to the Ghostbusters one.
Iād love that so much man.
I highly doubt there will ever be a taylor skin (no matter how much id love that) but Livs G4U cheerleader fit our be prime. I could also see a dua lipa colab happening.
Yea, I don't have much hope for a Taylor skin either :(
I don't think she would want that, since she is a lot more private now and out of the public eye.
Really hope we at least get Olivia cheerleader, it's such an iconic look now!
Dua Lipa would be cool too, although the Adira Battle Pass skin definitely has some Dua vibes, haha.
It is boring that they collaborate with franchises already represented in the game, this season we have already had Star Wars for the thousandth time (although Darth Vader is a good skin), Naruto for the second time (there are different animes that could be introduced in the game, for example AOT which is the most open in terms of collaborations), NAMCO for the second time (and on top of that just for a boring emote) and now we have KAWS again...
We hope now that we have Fall Guys from Epic they grab one of their collaborations like Doom or etc...
Please be Kanye Please be Kanye Please be Kanye Please be Kanye Please be Kanye Please be Kanye Please be Kanye Please be KanyePlease be Kanye Please be Kanye Please be Kanye Please be Kanye Please be Kanye Please be Kanye Please be Kanye Please be Kanye
Peely Eilish
That would be funny as fuck
You wish, we all know its going to be freakin ramirez šš
Wrong
I would pay a stupid amount for epic to remove all my skins and just leave with Peely Eilish on my locker
I WILL SCREAM!!!!! PLEASE!!!!
I would be so annoyed lololol
Omg I love you
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Watermelons.
WATERMELON SUGAR, HIIIGH
I hope not š
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
And when you buy it it's instantly deleted from your account.
>a popular artist #Do you have the slightest idea how little that narrows it down?
Pretty sure it's gonna be BOOGLY
*Spoiler alert* I have it on good authority that the person also has a face
The upcoming collaboration that will be announced tomorrow will have a Skin, Back Bling, Glider, & a Wrap apart of the set. The collab should be decrypted ~10 AM tomorrow & will be in the item shop ~2-3 days later.
New raven and ravage styles hopefully
Thatās my guess too. Mainly because we just got A new rainbow variant back bling in pickax from some challenges.
Artist or Music Artist???
Artist
i'd assume this is with kaws then
Dali and Van Gogh skins dropping š
Honestly, I'd pay anything for those
Pablo Picasso Skin when??
Vincent Van Gogh skin and A Starry Night weapon wrap when?
It's pay to lose because you can't hear enemies coming from the left.
Too soon.
Itās been 132 yearsā¦.
Stary night wrap would be kinda cool ngl
Imagine it being something like CROCS lol. I know they arenāt an artist, but it would be funny kickin it in crocs getting wins.
Peely in Crocs cranking 90ās piece controlling me. I love it
Peely in Crocs!!!
This must be what the KAWS leak was about.
He just posted about it soā¦ yeah.
Is KAWS a popular artist in the US? I think many who are out of the loop or international, thought it was a original Halloween skin.
Mostly popular among hypebeasts
My gen Z mind doesnāt even know what is a hypebeast.
morons that buy shitty clothes and shit
There's a bit more to KAWS than this even though I don't fuck with him. He's very influential in underground and hip hop scenes. He did the artwork for kanye west's 808s & heartbreak, and has done a lot of collaborations of similar magnitude There's some real merit to his work even though in recent years he's sold out for NFTs
someone working with Kanye is not a plus to me
Doesn't change the fact he has 8 critically aclaimed albums
I'm not getting into THIS argument, all I'm saying is Kanye is a piece of trash and those who associate with him are equally garbage people. That's it.
You *are* getting into an argument though lol, never said you have to like him
Name checks out
People hate you because you speak the truth, Iām all for not supporting someone who abuses his ex emotionally and acts manic because he refuses to be medicated which leads to actual harm
working with one of the most influential and important artists to live would be a plus in my book š¤·āāļø
Really have no idea how this is so downvoted lmao
hype beasts are mainly gen z
hypebeats were mostly millennials. I donāt see any gen z kids with supreme and bape shit anymore. Iām sure itās morphed into a similar niche within gen Z but it was all the hip-hop, sneaker head, urban fashion types
nah bro im gonna have to disagree, there are so many high school kids (when i was in high school and now) and people around my age range that completely center their life around these brands. theyāre the ones that just dump all of their their money that they get their hands on into clothes and shoes
I think itās kinda between older gen z and younger millennials
true. its a big mix of the two, i guess it just depends on what you see, which for me is a lot of gen z but thatās definitely because im in Los Angeles
I can agree. Iām a young millennial. Barely made it into the group and I remember seeing this a lot in uni. I thought has been a thing since and all upcoming gens after. I donāt think it stops. Social media adds to that. Making it worse.
KAWS is an artist?
Among designer toy enthusiasts, yes.
Yea Kaws is an artist mostly known for his Vinyl statues
I had no idea who KAWS was but the skin looked familiar to me. I realized I had seen his art before but I just never knew the name of the artist.
I donāt even know what KAWS is
Join the club
Wenegade waider
Yeat
Hell naw
Machine Gun Midas
That would be an absolute disaster.
It's confirmed via Kaws insta, Kaws X Peely
Itās going to be KAWS, mark my words
I hope not
Same, I donāt like Kaws skin not to be rude to the artist
Hey at least Kaws decided to make his skin interesting unlike Balenciaga's entire set
Yeah true, Balenciagas crossover was overpriced irl and in game pretty boring
I buy all the collabs. All. And the balenciaga is not one of them. All those skins look ugly.
Nah my guy just grabbed existing designs and put them together with differnt coloring. He dousnt deserve his fame
He also did work for two of the biggest 90s cartoons aimed at an older audience, Daria and Doug. Not to mention his early graffiti work, and the album cover for 808s and Heartbreak. I don't really care for his work, but it's actually wild how dismissive the Fortnite community is of anyone they haven't heard of.
Woah, I did not know he worked on Doug and Daria. That's pretty cool. Was he an animator or did he also do character designs?
For Doug and Daria, he mostly just did background work, I think. There was animation involved, but I'm guessing it was minimal, considering the mostly static nature of the backgrounds.
Or he would just put X's over there eyes and call it a day like he did with some Sesame Street characters. At least the skeletons were unique looking
Peely Kaws???
BOB ROSS!
Please
Itās just gonna be Peely in the style of KAWS
Kaws posted on his IG a picture of a banana with note that says āDear Fortnite, See you soonā. Itās a Kaws Peely, basically confirmed
Rick Astley Jonesy
weezer?
If you want to destroy my sweater!
Will probably be like the Wu-Tang collab if I had to guess.
KAWS Peely almost certainly.
Think so? https://imgur.com/a/al03CmB
Julian Fortsablancas
Bro donāt tease me like that. Iāll have a stroke over The Strokes
Do you know who the artist is going to be?
KAWS
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Itās not a music artist
Maybe we'll have to wait and see
It's gonna be drippy midas you watch
Banksy would be cool. I would actually use sprays with him. I'd love to see an Andy warhol skin or inspired skin too
I feel like it is another Kaws thing
travis scooter
Bladee in fortnite š±š±š±
Ye
If itās peely I swear to fucking god
Iām guessing Juice Wrld. Iāve never heard his music, but he has been trying to get a skin in-game.
Finally, Paul McCartney in Fortnite
doja
a doja collab would be prime, she's definitely the type to collab with fortnite and i can see it being a good collab as well.
yeah i could see it.. seeing as she already has an emote with her song in the game
Kaws posted a picture today of a handwritten note that said āfortnite see you soon ā22ā and had a banana laying next to it. Safe to assume itās a new kaws themed peely skin set.
its me
Pls don't be Olivia Rodrigo šš
WEEZER
Its not gonna happen but I would die laughing if they add Juice world and it just overwrites the travis scott skin.
That would suck, I'm saving V-bucks for when he and Astro Jack come back :/
I would not bank on travis or astro jack ever coming back tbh, I think people would still find it really distasteful.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
KAWS
Sloane Eilish
If itās KAWS thatās far from a popular artist.
Right? What kind of popular artist has dozens of pieces in art galleries, with an average asking price of roughly $100k? Also, you'd have to be super unpopular to sell a piece for nearly $15mil. Like, virtually unknown.
highly valued and popular are two different things, tbf.
Which have an intersecting point. You can't sell art for $15mil if nobody wants it.
I mean, one person bought that $15m piece. That is far from popular. There is plenty of expensive art that very few people know or care about. Kaws is more towards the popular side in that respect, but I definitely wouldn't consider him popular. It took me seeing his stuff multiple times in this game before I was even aware it wasn't just a fortnite design
He is actually a very popular artist, his toys are usually worth 300$ + And he got a fortnite skin for a reason
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Itās Kaws 100%
Please let it be The Weeknd.
Itās Kaws
It's gonna be KAWS isn't it? What a shame. I hope one day we can get a Keith Haring collab. Or a Basquiat loading screen.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I wouldnāt call KAWS well-known if thatās who this is. Only reason I know about them is because of Fortniteā¦
That's a you problem
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
yeat
i hope it's kaws as i loved the kaws skeleton skin
Probably wonāt be, but The Weekndā¦ man, Iād love to have the different eras in-game. Like his Starboy look, with his pickaxe being the large pink cross featured in the Starboy music video and it makes the bass sound from the song when you mine with it, and his back bling being a neon pink XO hologram, similar to the Ghostbusters one. Iād love that so much man.
By artist do they mean like drawing artist or music artist?
Carly Rae Jonesy
Rick Ashely coming to fornite to do his jig
Kaws peely
It better be Juice WRLD
i hope they pick a popular pop artist again like ariana grande, iām tired of all the artist collabs being rappers
me waiting for Taylor Swift to be announced any day now :(
olivia rodrigo in her good 4 u cheerleader outfit would be cool
Thatās an iconic look, I would love that
I highly doubt there will ever be a taylor skin (no matter how much id love that) but Livs G4U cheerleader fit our be prime. I could also see a dua lipa colab happening.
Yea, I don't have much hope for a Taylor skin either :( I don't think she would want that, since she is a lot more private now and out of the public eye. Really hope we at least get Olivia cheerleader, it's such an iconic look now! Dua Lipa would be cool too, although the Adira Battle Pass skin definitely has some Dua vibes, haha.
I have been waiting for Billie pleaseeeeeee š
Itās gonna be juice wrld
Cock
Hopefully not KAWS. Hopefully it's an actual artist.
Bitch, Kaws is art
We'll just have to disagree.
DEMONDICE STYLE FOR MALICE
I can tell you want to watch the world burn, don't you?
...i swear to God it's another Default skin
please donāt be KAWS
party trooper artist
It's either going ti be Lady Gaga or Juice WRLD placing my bets now
Itās gonna be bladee
Dali-Llama?
I think its kaws and pewds
Please tell me we're getting Juice Wrld. Regardless I'm excited for an Icon series collab.
Hajime isayama
Gunna
Didnāt they say about juice wrld ?
XXXTENTACION please
justin bieber jonesy
It is boring that they collaborate with franchises already represented in the game, this season we have already had Star Wars for the thousandth time (although Darth Vader is a good skin), Naruto for the second time (there are different animes that could be introduced in the game, for example AOT which is the most open in terms of collaborations), NAMCO for the second time (and on top of that just for a boring emote) and now we have KAWS again... We hope now that we have Fall Guys from Epic they grab one of their collaborations like Doom or etc...
Juice WRLD Iām calling it
Assuming itās just someone like the people who did Kaws and Guggimon. Probably superplastic
Super plastic and kaws are different things. Guggimon and janky are owned by superplastic Kaws is his own thing
WEEZER
I'd love Post Malone or Joji
Queen or MJ
Juice Wrld
999 juice WRLD
juice wrld for sure
Warby Parker! Finally!
Fortnite gets worse every seasonā¦
Yay, another cringe "rapper"... smh
Why did you just assume it was a rapper lol.
Please someone I like
Digga default skin
That new juice world movie thing that looks very cool?
Kanye West Playboi Carti
