We just can't seem to get enough emoji. No matter how quickly they look to add more variety or make movies centered around the Japanese cartoons, there will always be a call for more. Which is why Brazilian art director Bruno Leo Ribeiro created a whole series of emoji based on a series of iconic musicians and bands, brought to our attention by Hypebeast

Ribeiro seems to have selected artists that would have been interesting and unique to represent as emoji. That might be why bands with distinct looks, like KISS, Queen, The Village People, and Guns N' Roses, are featured heavily here. However, the emoji we'd really like to get our fingers on is the assortment of Michael Jackson cartoons. 

While these emoji are only imagined for now, there are emoji of one iconic artist you can actually download to your phone right now. The Yemoji app allows you to text a variety of Kanye West's different facial expressions.
