SIX PACK: VOL 2 | SIZZLE
ALBUM COVER ART
JUNE 2025
This cover art is a bold and rebellious statement, centered around themes of money, identity, and legacy. The background features a collage of hundred-dollar bills—but instead of presidents, each bill is stamped with a mugshot-style portrait of the artist, Sizzle. This subversive twist flips the traditional symbol of power and wealth into a raw commentary on the cost of fame, street credibility, and survival. This piece is a symbol of transformation—from the system to the spotlight. Using his mugshot on hundred-dollar bills is a personal power move. It's about owning the past, flipping the narrative, and turning what was once a moment of shame into a badge of value. No hiding it—but printing it in stacks. The 6 Pack title isn’t just a nod to the number of tracks or volumes—it represents a set of heavy hitters, a dose of truth, and a shot of survival. Each song is like another bill in the stack—raw, real, and earned through pain, hustle, and sacrifice. That’s power. That’s independence. That’s ownership of your story.
WE SHALL SEE | lIL DEV
ALBUM COVER ART
COMING SUMMER 2025
This cover art presents a bold and emotionally charged visual for We Shall See by Lil Dev. The central focus is a high-contrast portrait of the artist caught mid-expression—eyes clenched, teeth gritted—evoking a mix of pain, passion, and determination. His intensity radiates outward through surreal waves of black smoke and yellow flames, symbolizing internal struggle, transformation, and the heat of rising ambition. The background is muted and smoky, adding contrast and atmosphere without distracting from the artist. The use of fire and smoke effects gives the piece a raw, gritty energy that matches the emotional weight of the album’s title. The title is rendered in bold, futuristic metallic typography with a chrome finish, casting shadows that amplify its impact. This isn’t just an album cover. It’s a snapshot of growth, hunger, and refusal to fold.
WHO AM I TO COMPLAIN | LUL SIS
SINGLE COVER ART
AUGUST 2025
This cover art captures a haunting nighttime scene illuminated by the glow of red neon text reading ‘Who Am I To Complain?” The sign sits atop a dimly lit building, barely visible in the surrounding darkness, symbolizing a hidden truth or emotion quietly burning in the background. The overall color palette is stark and minimal—deep shadows contrast with the intense red glow, creating a moody, introspective atmosphere. This piece represents a moment of quiet reflection—the kind that happens late at night when everything is still, and your thoughts get loud. The question “Who am I to complain?” echoes feelings of humility, struggle, survival, and internal conflict. It speaks to the idea of having endured so much that complaining almost feels ungrateful—but deep down, there’s still pain that wants to be heard. The red lighting symbolizes both passion and warning—a visual metaphor for emotional weight, suppressed anger, or love turned bitter. It’s a statement about resilience, but also about the emotional cost of staying silent. The building being mostly hidden in the dark could represent parts of yourself or your past that you keep tucked away, only revealing enough to survive or tell your story.
idol eyes | lul sis
SINGLE COVER ART
JUNE 2025
This cover art features a striking and symbolic design. At its center are two intense, stylized eyes rendered in gold, with paint-like drips falling from them — creating the illusion of melting or crying gold. Above the eyes, the title “Idol Eyes” is written in a glowing, elegant script that adds a sense of allure and mystique. The background is dark, which makes the golden elements pop with even more contrast and impact. This design holds personal meaning because it visually captures complex emotions—like pain, power, beauty, and vulnerability. The luxurious gold suggests value and admiration, while the dripping effect hints at hidden sadness or a deeper truth beneath the surface. It’s both beautiful and haunting—like a mask that’s starting to melt. It represents the voice of the artist. It tells a story that’s more than just glamour—it's about being seen for who you really are beneath the “idol” image. This cover makes a bold visual statement that matches the emotional weight of the music.
4EVER | lIL DEV
SINGLE COVER ART
MAY 2025
The artwork presents a concert-style admit-one ticket as the central visual element, colored in bold red to evoke urgency, passion, and intensity. This implies a personal or exclusive experience, as if this song is your entry into a significant emotional or life moment. It could also represent memories or moments that can’t be relived—once you use a ticket, it’s done. The ticket is partially burnt, especially at the top-right edge and with a prominent burn hole through the bottom-left side. These fiery details bring in strong themes of destruction, intensity, and permanence. This design feels deeply personal and likely reflects an emotion or memory you want to preserve “4EVER”—even if it’s been through fire. The burnt ticket could represent a moment that marked you permanently, one that can’t be undone or forgotten. Whether it’s about a lost love, loyalty to someone or something, or an inner fire that drives your music, this cover says: “This is my story. It burned me, shaped me, and I carry it forever.”

MARCH 2025
A combination of raw textures and a slightly grainy quality infuses the cover with an authentic, unpolished vibe, reflecting the true spirit of contemporary hip-hop. This design holds personal significance because it represents the intersection of traditional hip-hop culture and the digital age. The use of the dog filter adds a layer of modern digital culture, blending playful, contemporary elements with the assertiveness of the music. It serves as both a symbolic statement and a visual nod to the intersection of social media and identity in today’s world, reflecting how modern artists play with the boundaries of reality and persona. The gritty aesthetic captures the authenticity and rawness that I believe is essential to the genre, while the contemporary references reflect the evolving identity of hip-hop. To me, this cover art encapsulates how modern culture shapes and redefines the ways we express ourselves—blurring the lines between reality, image, and persona in a digital world.

The filmstrip overlay and grainy texture enhance the vintage, moody aesthetic, evoking a sense of nostalgia while adding depth to the composition. This design holds significant meaning because it symbolizes the constant process of self-examination and growth. The rearview mirror becomes a metaphor for looking back at one's past while moving forward in life, and the mirrored typography reinforces the idea that we are often our own reflections, shaped by experiences and choices. To me, this cover art represents a deeply personal journey—the tension between who we were, who we are, and who we are becoming.

Conceptually, this project challenges conventional portrayals of femininity. The contrast—both visual and thematic—creates a compelling tension, blending softness with darkness. Deep shadows and muted tones establish a brooding, cinematic aesthetic, while the interplay between the ethereal wisps of smoke and the jagged, tactile textures adds depth and intrigue.

IMPERFECT FLOWER | B CURRY
SINGLE COVER ART
FEBRUARY 2025
This cover art embodies a striking visual concept, where simplicity meets powerful symbolism. The intense, solid-red background radiates passion, love, and the raw edge of danger or heartbreak. Against this vivid backdrop, the track title appears in large, white, uppercase sans-serif text, creating a bold, eye-catching contrast. Piercing through the typography is a desaturated black rose—a symbol of mystery, rebellion, and imperfection. Its muted tones and thorny stem subtly convey themes of melancholy, struggle, and resilience. The rose’s stark presence adds a dynamic tension, visually representing the duality of beauty and pain, love and imperfection. This piece holds special meaning for me because it captures the emotional complexity that often lies beneath the surface of music. The contrast between the clean, structured type and the raw, organic form of the rose mirrors the emotional push-and-pull of human connection—flawed yet beautiful. It’s a design that not only complements the music but also tells its own visual story, making it a compelling and meaningful project to create.

This project holds a special place in my heart—it was my first-ever Spotify animated canvas, created for an artist I deeply admire. The piece captures the emotional turbulence of chasing love through a dynamic, black-and-white subway scene. A blurred train speeds by, symbolizing the unstoppable force of passion and the fleeting moments we desperately cling to.

TRILLION DOLLAR MIND | B CURRY
SINGLE COVER ART
JANUARY 2025
This cover art oozes sophistication and street smarts, layered with a raw, artistic edge. It was a particularly meaningful project for me, as I had the opportunity to transform a deeply personal moment—the artist's mugshot—into a powerful visual statement. The grayscale portrait, featuring a side profile, is fractured with a ripped paper effect, revealing Benjamin Franklin’s watchful eye from a $100 bill. This striking detail symbolizes the duality of struggle and ambition—wealth and resilience peeking through the artist’s psyche. The bold, blocky typography of "Trillion Dollar Mind" exudes power and audacity, while textured overlays and sharp contrasts add a sense of grit and authenticity. The rawness of the design mirrors the vulnerability of the artist’s journey, making this piece not just a visual but an emotional narrative. What made this project truly special was the collaboration—the shared trust and creative synergy. It taught me that when working with artists, every detail carries a deeper meaning.

SINGLE COVER ART
JANUARY 2025
Bold confidence fuels this cover artwork, dripping with street opulence and unshakable attitude. The design commands attention through dominant typography techniques, with the title rendered in gleaming, diamond-plate metallic lettering. The high-polish sheen glints under the light as the text appears to shatter through a cracked surface—resembling a heavy chain necklace breaking free. This bold visual metaphor symbolizes power, resilience, and the defiance of limitations. The reflective, larger-than-life text takes center stage, exuding both luxury and raw force. The dark, moody background creates a stark contrast, making the illuminated elements feel even more imposing. The challenge of this project was capturing the realism of the reflection—achieving a natural, grounded look that made the lettering appear as if it had violently crashed down, splintering the floor on impact, mirroring Burberry’s hard-hitting bars. This project became a defining moment in my creative journey—pushing my authenticity and marking a shift in my artistic style. It stands as a testament to my growth, blending visual intensity with symbolic storytelling.
HOLD UP | 730RARRI + JAHKOY
COVER ART DAILY CHALLENGE
DECEMBER 2024
This project was part of a high-stakes contest hosted by Toronto’s Cover Art Daily, where the challenge wasn’t just the fierce competition—it was creating a design powerful enough to resonate with two established local rap artists. The cover art for "Hold Up" is a strikingly minimal yet provocative visual statement. At its core, an old, battered Nokia cellphone lies discarded in a desolate, overgrown field—its cracked screen faintly glowing with a haunting "No Service" indicator. The off-centered composition and atmospheric details, like trampled grass, flickering reflections, and faint static effects, lend the piece a cinematic, almost haunting quality. The imagery evokes a raw, nostalgic mood while symbolizing disconnection, resilience, and the irrelevance of outdated systems in a constantly shifting world. This project also marked my first venture into animating a cover—adding subtle motion that enhances the feeling of eerie isolation. The result masterfully balances nostalgia and rebellion, framing the forgotten relic as a metaphor for power struggles, missed signals, and the desire to break free from a hyperconnected yet fractured reality.

Creating the cover art for Lul Sis’ single, Men Need Love Too, was a profoundly meaningful experience, as it marked my introduction to the world of cover design. Collaborating with Lul Sis reignited my confidence in art and showed me the power of connecting with another artist on a deep, vulnerable level. The artwork captures the raw energy and unfair pressure that men silently carry. The minimalist design features washroom sign stick-figures, symbolizing the universal and faceless nature of this struggle. The high contrast and clean, sharp edges create bold, striking imagery, with the intentional use of red as the only accent color—signifying passion, pain, and urgency. The simplicity of the composition allows the message’s strength to come through the track’s lyrics, aiming to challenge stigma and shine a light on men’s mental health.
