"Trump & Kanye: “Kings of Cray” - It was during Trump's first year in office and Kanye West popped in to pay Da Orange one a visit. Visually memorable and completely horrifying at the same time, they both were classically comical in front of cameras, spewing stupidity effortlessly from their mouths. In other words they both were in absolute CRAY! CRAY! mode. Paying homage to Run DMC’s cover art for the classic album, “King of Rock” I wanted to capture and convey the bizarreness of it all speaking visually utilizing classic Hip-Hop." - Andre LeRoy Davis
