Kanye West “Yeezus” Cover (#1 + Packaging)
I don’t normally post things this simple, nor do I post covers for anything that’s unconfirmed…but I had the idea in wake of the rumored title of Ye’s 6th studio album. Obviously it’s a play on the cross. Nothing but an idea…not claiming this to be anything special but I thought it looked cool so I figured I’d share. Remember…watch Kanye on SNL tonight!
Also, I will post another cover for this album as soon as the name is confirmed!

Kanye West (June Eighteenth Album) Cover
Last week Kanye West tweeted “June Eighteeth” and it is assumed that’s his *currently unnamed*album release date. Kanye will appear on Saturday Night Live later this month and presumably perform new music. Should be an interesting May and June!
Whether this is an album or not that Kanye is alluding to, I decided to do some artwork that can be used as the cover art for this project. I had nothing to go off of as far as sound or title so I just ran with the idea behind some of his style. Kanye has recently been wearing furs, hiking boots and camo; so with this cover I tried recreating a thermal imagery camera. Featured in the cover is a hand drawn original silhouette of Kanye wearing the Margiela diamond mask. Inside the silhouette is the original image of Kanye with said mask.

“Come & Get It” is Selena’s new single…gotta say she did her thing. Song is hot. I’m ready to come and get it.
I don’t even know what the inspiration was for the covers I did. Posted 2 different colorways because I like them both evenly. Basically just went with the flow and did whatever I did.

Lil Wayne “Love.Live.Life” Poster
As anyone who knows me as a person knows, I’m quite the fan and follower of Lil Wayne. He’s influenced A LOT of my artwork and myself as a person over the years. Unfortunately Wayne hasn’t been doing well over the last couple days. Terrible news that has myself and everyone else scared and upset. All we can do is hope and pray he recovers as soon as possible. As a huge fan of Wayne I can’t imagine losing him as a inspiration and influence. He has his kids and family who he obviously means the world to…and that’s the most important thing. As a fan I can only pray he recovers as soon as possible so he can be with his family. I don’t NEED his music but his kids surely need him as their dad.
Like I said, prayers go out to Weezy and his family. Here’s to a full recovery as soon as possible! Love.

Lil Wayne “Greetings From Mars” Poster
I worked on this all afternoon. Originally I was just messing around with my drawing tablet for some other ideas but I liked the way the simple lines looked….so I figured I’d do a Wayne poster. I hand drew all of this except for the text. It’s abstract and weird but hey…that’s kind of my style…and Wayne’s style as well.
I will say I found some inspiration in UNIF Clothing’s ads and graphics in general for this poster(I’m a big fan of UNIF they have some dope stuff).
Previously I have posted some similar line art with the original The Weeknd “Trilogy” cover I did…however I recreated the line art from one of his concert posters. This time all the line work is original.
BUY LIL WAYNE “I AM NOT A HUMAN BEING 2″ WHEN IT DROPS!

THIS IS NOT AND NEVER WAS OFFICIAL: Rich Gang “Tap Out” Cover
Sometime later today Birdman is dropping the first “Rich Gang” single featuring himself, Weezy, Nicki and Future. I slept on the idea for the cover and had to wake up and make it happen.
UPDATE: THIS COVER IS NOT AND NEVER EVER WAS OFFICIAL. Yes I have done some official work in the past but this is simply a cover for personal use or for people to look at. When making the cover I searched through images on Google and found the mask that I used….just so happens that it’s associated with some “Stompdown” group. Never heard of them until this cover was released and I never intended to use their logo. Sorry if anyone feels like this is “stealing” but it definitely was not intended in that way. By doing some research there are other places that use this silhouette and seem to be making profit off of it…for example if you search Ski Mask Movement a clothing brand appears using the same logo. They are claiming it as their own and I certainly am not.
ALSO…by doing some research I have found that the logo for “Stompdown” is the same thing/very very similar to what you get when you use the live trace feature on Adobe Illustrator on the below image…
http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zbZ749i-uxM/TVRHFjh0wMI/AAAAAAAAAyc/DsIkbnYlg60/s1600/ski-mask.jpg
…nothing wrong with that. That’s fine. But my point is that someone else could and is likely to simply “live trace” that image in the future thus recreating the same logo that “Stompdown” uses.
So in conclusion, I used the silhouette that I used because that’s all it was…a silhouette. I had no way of knowing but now that I do I am in fact giving credit to “Stompdown” as they claim it as their logo.
And once again, this cover is not and never was official.

REPOST: Lil Wayne “I Am Not A Human Being II” Cover
I made this cover over a year ago now! Since then it’s been everywhere, fooling many into thinking it was official. Personally I still prefer this to the official cover(pictured below). I may be selling prints of a poster variation of this cover soon, so be on the lookout for that!
Remember to go BUY Lil Wayne “I Am Not A Human Being II” on March 26th on iTunes and anywhere else you can buy albums!

Marina & the Diamonds “E.V.O.L” Cover
Yesterday Marina & The Diamonds released a new song called “E.V.O.L” and it’s been on repeat ever since. Recently I’ve become a fan of Marina…she’s really good and her art direction is awesome. I like who she seems to be. Her music is also very good.
Is love really evil or is it the people for make it evil? Marina made her case on this track. She says “It only takes 2 people to fuck love up and make it evil”. I tried using that quote to make the cover. I show 2 people in the form of devils on the left and right side. They’re reaching for the heart thus creating it into a monster.

Drake “Started From The Bottom” Cover (#2)
Well I swear this started as just a personal project. I’ve been into hand drawn stuff lately and wanted to do a poster. I decided to mess around and try to come up with something based on the picture Drake posted on the October’s Very Own blog for “Started From The Bottom”…and then I just naturally came up with a cover a couple hours later. This obviously isn’t my normal style but it’s definitely a direction I’m headed in. I figure since Drake is trying something different with his single I might as well try something different with my artwork.
Yes I could’ve used the same font seen on the billboard in the picture, but I didn’t. This is a representation of the picture. Not meant to be perfect.
