Cassius April Cover: Panther x Phenomenon
Cassius April Cover: Panther x Phenomenon

NEW YORK (PRWEB) April 24, 2018 -- The digital destination for urban enthusiasts, millennials and lovers of Black culture, CASSIUS released its April Digital Cover: Panther x Phenomenon while teaming up with mixtape DJ J. Period for an exclusive release of his new mixtape J. Period Presents. . . #WAKANDAFOREVEREVER. Both the mixtape and cover dropped last week Friday, April 20, 2018. The collaborative April cover comes after much critical acclaim to the film “Black Panther” which earned over a billion dollars in worldwide sales, even toppling Titanic and sparked a global movement.

"Dan Lish's illustration of Andre 3000 and Big Boi reimagined in Wakanda-inspired regalia provided the perfect visuals for our comic-book-inspired cover." - Marielle Bobo, Executive Director, Style & Special Projects, CASSIUS

Post this

"The cultural and commercial impact of Black Panther is undeniable. This proves, once again, that Black culture is the largest cultural force to be reckoned with. From Hollywood to the largest corporate boardrooms to families of all ethnicities, Black Panther has set a new standard for us all, which we pridefully honor with this month’s Cassius cover." – Detavio Samuels, President, iOne Digital and One Solution/OneX

The impact of Black Panther is not dying anytime soon, and CASSIUS will continue to deliver stories centered around this historical phenomenon. While teaming up with DJ J. Period, CASSIUS gained exclusive access to the award-winning DJ & Producer who mixed legendary hip-hop duo Outkast tunes to take listeners on an exclusive journey into the secret forests between Wakanda and Stankonia. CASSIUS will release a series of work surrounding the influence of Black Panther including: cover story and exclusive interview with J. Period, an in-depth listen into the new mixtape, Wakanda-inspired art and the film’s record-shattering impact around the world.

"DJ J. Period's Outkast mixtape blends the pride we felt pressing play on 'Stankonia' with the Black pride a whole new generation is getting to experience with the success of 'Black Panther'.’ Our April cover, Panther x Phenomenon, puts the film’s global impact through the lens of millennials and Gen Z-ers. It's our 'I’m Black and I’m Proud' moment--and that pride just reached new levels." - Jada Gomez-Lacayo, Deputy Editor, CASSIUS
