Album Cover

The cover of the album features a stylised full-body illustration of Breakbot - a trademark of most of his albums. The figure being made of partially unwrapped chocolate seems to be in reference to the album cover of Chicago X.

In late 2018, his single "Baby I'm Yours" became an Internet meme commonly paired with a voice clip of Paul Bremer announcing Saddam Hussein's capture, with his famous words: "Ladies and gentlemen, we got him."[7][8]
