Miami rhymer Lil Pump has always been a little out of the box, to say the least. From the 22-year-old’s signature lo-fi track selections to his colorful, Gucci-inspired frocks, Pump is not afraid to illustrate his artistic expression in a myriad of ways—even down to his rated-XXX OnlyFans account. His latest look is giving video character vibes as he promotes “Tesla,” his latest collaboration with longtime friend Smokepurpp. The look in question? Space buns. Yes, you read that correctly.
The 2018 XXL Freshman showed off the loc bun-baldy combo on Instagram over the weekend. Accompanied by a sinister, $25,000 smile, Lil Pump says he lost his mind over the success of his newest single. Fans of the “Harvard dropout” were quick to denounce the hairstyle in his comment section. “Bro trying so hard to set a trend,” reads the top response. Others went on to troll the artist, comparing him to the ever-controversial Andrew Tate, among other notably bald celebrities. Another quotable comment takes aim at Pump’s new set of teeth, as the user wonders why he “wore braces for years to replace them with buckaroo veneers.”
Lil Pump Trolls Supporters With Space Buns Style
Interestingly enough, the video following his new-do debut shows the rapper with a full head of hair. In it, Lil Pump teaches his followers the “Tesla” dance routine, posted Saturday (Feb 25.). Many accused him of trolling viewers for publicity, which seems to have worked in his favor. The music video for the single currently has over 1.3 million views on YouTube after just three days, and over half a million digital streams. As for more new music, Pump says a lot of tracks were lost “in the middle of lake,” on a hard drive.
Although the hairstyle was temporary, Lil Pump hopes his recent weight loss remains a permanent addition to his overall look. The “She Know” artist has spoken out about his drug addiction in the past, but as of late he’s taken up working out to lose his lean gut. “Working out is my new addiction should I go keep going ?” he captioned his before and after photos.
