For the past few days I've been working on a CD cover for a local hip hop artist. The CD is called "Organic Hip-Hip". I started by sitting down with the artist and brainstorming some ideas

of where he wanted to take the album cover. I then did some thumbnails sketches and got Internet reference on the subject. A photo shoot was scheduled to take a picture of his hand holding the mic. There's nothing better than taking your own photo's not only for copyright purposes, but you also get exactly what your looking for. This is the first pass at this cover. I hope he likes it.
