Music Poster

So I didn't have my music poster back for the final critique. So I wanted to use it for the blog this week to see what you all think. I figured I can use the criticism and build, its always good. The song is a powerful one to me, both the artist being two faves of many I am moved by the message in it. Not only that but it was actually performed live for a studio audience on the Dave Chappelle show. BlackStar:Mos Def/Talib Kweli, Audio of Chappelle Show Appearance. I hope you all like it but don't hold back either!!

  1. I remember your first rough and wow this is a huge improvement! You really took it a lot further. Good Job! What I like is the text overlay because it creates movement and rhythm. For me it might be a little too light? Or maybe that's because you didn't want us to read it? I love like the "beef" in the middle, very bold.

  2. Shomari - I think Naidin is right in saying this has really evolved. It has become more organized and you've synthesized the message to its readable essentials. I can feel and see the rhythm rather than read every word. Very expressive, very profound in its "shout out" way.

  3. Very nice! I remember listening to the song and saying in my head "what are they saying?" and it felt like organized chaos... I feel that in this project. Putting the words together the way you did makes it feel exactly how it sounds. I wasn't sure how I felt about the word "BEEF" and how bold it is, but I think it works for this. I think you definitely improved!
