Single Artwork for Marko Kun

  • Carlos Pontes

The artist wanted to portray what Hackney meant to him in a unique manner for his upcoming single. We decided to emulate the famous Grand Theft Auto cover layout to convey the different experiences one can face in Hackney with cartooned photographs of people and well-known places in the borough. Detail was a point of focus, an example of this being the Rockstar Games' logo being reworked by changing the 'R' to an 'E', due to the borough of Hackney being in east London. Overall, the single is a perfect ode to Hackney and another showcase of Marko's distinctive rapping and melodic ability. The artwork required me to bring his vision to life to reflect this instant summer anthem. Marko Kun's Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/132Ru16p2bsc4F1CfJOTg2
