[Etsy's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/etsy-and-kacey-musgraves) issayissay shop specializes in hand-illustrated hip-hop ceramics that are the ideal gift for music lovers. The London-based e-retailer offers a variety of musician-themed housewares including those paying homage to names like Drake, Justin Bieber, Kanye West, and Outkast to name a few.

While the shop's best-selling Beyonce and Jay-Z bowl boasts illustrations of the power couple alongside a white backdrop with blue trim, its Solange mug and plate set features a painted replica of the singer's A Seat at the Table album cover image.

Additional hip-hop ceramics offered by issayissay include a Snoop Dogg plate, a Tyler the Creator mug, or planter piece, and even an illustrated milk bottle that appropriately celebrates Kelis' memorable Milkshake anthem.
