Whitney Houston’s family has responded to Pusha T’s “Daytona” album art, which depicts the late singer’s drug-strewn bathroom.
In an interview with People Saturday, Houston’s cousin Damon Elliott slammed Kanye West for using the photo, which West reportedly paid $85,000 for.
“I immediately got sick to my stomach because it took me right back to six years ago,” he said. “To do something for a publicity stunt to sell records, it’s absolutely disgusting… It hurt my family and my daughter. It’s petty. It’s tacky.”

He continued, referencing West’s recent social media controversies, “I’ve watched the train wreck happening, but I didn’t think he’d go this far in invading someone’s family privacy.”
Houston died on Feb. 11, 2012. The official coroner’s report said she drowned in her bathtub, with heart disease and cocaine use as contributing factors.
