N.E.R.D has always connected with Japanese culture on a special level, going back to Pharrell’s days of rolling around with BAPE’s former head honcho NIGO, and now the Hip-Hop/rock infusion band is collaborating yet again with Billionaire Boys Club on a Japan-exclusive set of tees.
While not as vibrant as the band’s BBC New York-exclusive NMD HU collab, or as nostalgic as the BBC London-exclusive trucker hat, all six T-shirts in this small offering are perfect for the casual fan regardless of their region. With the white, black and yellow color scheme making a return, the focus falls more on the graphic prints, which include N.E.R.D’s brain logo, the classic BBC ice cream logo, and a standout mashup of the two entities on a “I.C.E. C.R.E.A.M.” shirt that utilizes the band’s signature acronym-style lettering.
