Benny Blanco sparks backlash after cover reveal of new album ‘Hermoso’

Benny Blanco has just revealed the album cover for his upcoming release, Hermosoand it shared fans on social media, with the majority not receiving it well.

The 37-year-old music producer will publish Hermoso on August 14, and the cover of the album has his own face distorted to appear cartoonish.

Many fans found it arrogant to call an album ‘beautiful’ (translated from Spanish) and have your own face as the cover, while others took the mistake of distorting a human face.

Soon after the album was revealed, it caught fire on social media.

Reacting to the reveal, one X user wrote: “What mask??? He’s right there,” and “So cute he’s ugly,” another added.

Several found an uncanny resemblance to The Weeknd’s album art style, writing “Kinda Copy The Weeknd” and “He thinks he’s the Weeknd.”

While others added: “Beautiful. Really hermoso. Never change king (please change)” and “Just when you think it can’t get any worse…”

So far, Blanco has not responded to the criticism.
