Kids and Spring Breakers writer and director, Harmony Korine is to release a collection of Riff Raff’s tweets – well, according to the rapper himself.

The book will feature the hip-hop artist’s online jottings, along with “interpretive readings” from Korine.

RiFF RAFF told Acclaim recently:

“We’re still working on stuff. maybe around the time my album’s coming out. March, April? Maybe a little longer.”

He also explained a bit about the book’s loose concept:

“Because nobody can perfectly understand what I’m saying. It’s somebody’s opinion. It’s how they feel about it… There’s no right or wrong answer in an interpretation. It’s all in the person who’s interpreting, and how you feel about something. I mean, it doesn’t matter, really, about how somebody else interprets something. It’s like, if I love chocolate chip cookies, and you’re allergic to chocolate chip cookies, and you come and you look at me like ‘Oh, I don’t like that. I can’t eat that,’ that doesn’t mean that the chocolate chip cookies aren’t still there. They’re still right there, but the only difference is that I like them and you don’t. The thing about the book that’s good is that it grabs people who think ‘I’m interested to see what Harmony Korine would say about this’. I might get other people, celebrities, to get involved in this and give their opinion. And then you have the person buying the book, and they have their opinions too.”

Riff Raff’s album is still yet to have a release date, but the likes of Drake and A$AP Rocky are – supposedly – meant to appear.
