Oh yes, stank sentiments. I mean, who woos better than those rap artists we look up to? That’s right. Brainchild of L.A.-based design firm [Kuro](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-cober), the Stank Sentiments for Sweethearts cards immortalize famous rap lines like nothing else (for instance, 'Lick Me Like a Lollipop'). Especially because they’re designed to go straight to the heart--or the groin. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.7/10 - Popularity: 93% | Activity: 71% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Vulgar Valentine's Greetings:** Innovative greeting cards that embrace edgy and provocative sentiments for Valentine's Day, appealing to a younger, more rebellious demographic. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Card and Stationery:** Opportunity for card and stationery companies to capitalize on the demand for unconventional and bold Valentine's Day greeting cards. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Seductive Valentine’s Day Bouquets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-squatch-x-trojan.md) - [Valentine's Beef Jerky Hearts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meathearts.md) - [Naughty Valentines Day Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sugar-wood.md) - [Practical Valentine’s Day Cards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/valentines-card-bath-bar.md) - [His-and-Her Underwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/upside-down-heart.md) - [AI-Powered Valentine's Cards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/resn.md) - [Practical Valentine's Candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/love-in-this-economy.md) - [Suggestive-Visual Celebratory Chocolates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/valentines-day-chocolates-1.md) - [Love-Inspired Cards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/how-to-say-i-love-you-around-the-world.md)
