Cleveland-based rapper Stalin Mackamillion commissioned me to design cover art for several of his singles featuring well-known artists, including "Sirens" with Benny the Butcher and "No Ties" with Gucci Mane.
For "No Ties," the creative brief focused on visually connecting their hometowns—Gucci Mane’s Atlanta, GA, and Stalin’s Cleveland, OH. The artwork was inspired by 1990s Black community street art, and I incorporated custom hand-lettering for the text.
Similarly, "Sirens" features a backdrop of Cleveland alongside Buffalo, NY, where Benny the Butcher is from. The design was heavily influenced by the aesthetic of Grand Theft Auto video game covers, capturing a bold, dynamic feel.
Both of these songs can be found on Spotify.
The artwork in this section highlights my art style through a series of album cover mockups.
