Album cover art is declining because graphic design has been democratized and repositioned as something anyone can do with simplified consumer tools.

A truly nice argyle sweater — with good colors and everything — is nearly impossible to find.

as a writer + editor at okayplayer from 2013-2023, a good chunk of my time was spent exploring j dilla's immediate and enduring impact on rappers, producers, and musicians. i'll be sharing some of my favorite chats from the archives leading up to his birthday next week.

we’re not “the industry,” nor will we ever be what people consider “the industry,” but here’s the artists who have ~spoke to us~ over the last few years no data, just using our ears everydejavu.com/artists/
“the industry” be scared to bet on artists they actually believe in so they overly depend on *data* to tell them who is gonna pop. it’s boring 🥱 i’m much more interested in hearing who YOU believe in. put us on to some art that speaks to you!!!

Made a lot of art last year! Big thank you to everyone who worked with me in 2023 and trusted me to bring their music into the visual realm. Here are some creative direction/design/video highlights – starting with this animated lyric video for @heyarthurmoon!
