Speaking with GQ about the brand in August, Thug revealed fashion to be a realm in which he’s wanted to work his entire life, originally speculating that SPIDER wouldn’t launch for another two years.
I always wanted to do it my whole life. When I came into the rap game, I didn’t want to be a rapper; I wanted to be a stylist,” he admitted. “When I first came in, I wanted to play football and then I wanted to be a stylist. I always knew how to rap my whole life and I just ended up making it in rap. Now, I’m able to live out my dream and create clothes—menswear, womenswear, unisex. I’m being able to create what I wanted to do. This is what I always wanted to do my whole life.”
He also revealed that he was working in close collaboration with a few designers, with Virgil Abloh being the only name he was allowed to disclose.
“One designer who I can say I’m gonna work with is Virgil. He don’t do non-disclosures with me. He loves me. I’m gon’ work with Virgil. He’ll probably be the first or second person that I ever work with. I think he’s gonna be the first.”
