Schoolboy Q turned the Cry Jordan meme into an album cover
UPDATE: June 16, 2016, 2:02 p.m. PDT Schoolboy Q tells TMZ the Crying Jordan cover is not his official cover for Blank Face.
"The fact that people think that i would use that as my album cover is funny," he said. "Soon as I put it on my Twitter, everybody just said, 'ScHoolboy Q's album cover! ScHoolboy Q's artwork!' but they defeated the purpose of what I'm doing. I have a concept."

The Crying Jordan now has its own album cover, whether Michael Jordan likes it or not.
Schoolboy Q took to Twitter on Tuesday to announce that Blank Face, his followup to 2014's Oxymoron, will be released July 8. He also shared the album's cover, which invokes the Crying Jordan meme, except it's in black and white and Jordan's actual crying face has been wiped out.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
When the meme -- which originated from Jordan's 2009 acceptance speech at the Basketball Hall of Fame -- first went viral, Jordan said he was "monitoring" for any commercial use of the photo.
Does it count if we can't see his face?
