popular in hip hop since it was coined by
legendary rapper Biggie Smalls.
This seemed appropriate when coming with a
name for the record label, since our music
video is very hip hop centric
With that in mind, this label will be subsidiary
of a major label like Kanye West’s G.O.O.D
Music label.

label was both Adobe Photoshop and
Illustrator.
Photoshop was used to manipulate
the images, and create additional
shapes necessary to the images
Illustrator was used in the final
processes of the creation of the
labels, it was used to finalize the idea
by refining the edges and sharpening
the image.
