GRAMMY-nominated rapper Logic has partnered with Crunchyroll to create a streetwear collection inspired by the neo-noir space Western anime series Cowboy Bebop. Fans can now purchase attire from Logic’s collaboration with Crunchyroll online and at the Anime Expo in Los Angeles, which runs from July 4 to July 7. Fans can purchase items from Logic x Crunchyroll’s Cowboy Bebop collection here.
“Anime was there for me when I was growing up in a drug and violence-ridden childhood and household. I discovered anime through Cowboy Bebop, and would later go on to befriend the voice of Spike Spiegel, Steve Blum, and collaborate with him on various albums, which is a dream come true,” Logic said about his collection with Crunchyroll.
“Without Cowboy Bebop, there is no Logic. I hope that collaborating with Cowboy Bebop and Crunchyroll will allow me to introduce a lot more of my fans who might not be hip to Cowboy Bebop, and vice versa, and I hope that a bunch of people out there who love Cowboy Bebop will realize I’m making fun anime nerd albums.”
Logic’s love for Cowboy Bebop and the anime world is showcased through 11 Crunchyroll exclusives. Some new digs in the collection include a See You Space Cowboy T-shirt, a Sympathy for the Devil T-shirt, a Logic and Radical Ed Smiley T-shirt, a Cowboy Bebop 1998 Hoodie, and much more. Cowboy Bebop’s animation director and character designer, Toshihiro Kawamoto, created the clothes and other items within the collection.
“Logic’s mission is to inspire people to be themselves, and this new Crunchyroll x Logic x Cowboy Bebop collection will ignite bounty hunters from across the galaxy to live and breathe this beloved fandom,” Crunchyroll’s Executive Vice President, Emerging Business Terry Li stated.
Cowboy Bebop follows the Bebop crew, a bunch of intergalactic loners who’ve teamed up to track down fugitives and turn them in for cold, hard cash. The anime series is produced by Sunrise and based on the manga series Cowboy Bebop: Shooting Star. It premiered in 2001.
