I haven't been around much. I've been busy practicing and getting more work!!! I am now working on a new project with a local hip hop artist. He's not famous yet, but this guy is starbound. I was doing shots for his album. These 2 are what I would like to use for his album. If you can, ignore the text on the first one. I put that stuff there to see how it would come up, it's kind of looks weird, and will probably be revised. But, I think these images are winners.

I like the second photo, but the first I think the mic hides too much of his face. The second one, is he playing a harmonica? That's what it looks like but if he was he'd be the first harmonica playing hip hop artist I've ever seen!

I dont' mind hip hop, but I'm over all the gun slinging, drug dealing talk. Then again MASEs new album gets tiring really quickly because all he talks about is money. I don't know what this guy talks about, but with a song titled "know your hoes" i feel it might be more of the same.

Anyway, I like what you've done with the photos, especially the colour treatment you've given them.

I like both pics - I have always been a fan of black and white for album covers

Neeper they are both great images but I like the first, its a great take that really has you focussing in on the eyes quite powerful. Terrific image and particularly suited to b&W.
