YOU ONLY LOVE ME WHEN I'M GONE
For his single “You Only Love Me When I’m Gone,” he wanted a cover that represents the lyrics describing a relationship, where several breakups result in the women ready for love rather than distance.
DELIVERY
Throughout the song, the client raps about a recurring pattern in their relationship. I used the cyclical nature of breakups and reconciliations to construct a visual pattern. Symbolizing the women's realization that they are still in love with their partner and desire to reunite.

GAMBIT DISCOGRAPHY
"You Only Love Me When I'm Gone" is one of several covers I did for the rapper. Look below at other art pieces.
FORGET IT
For this single “Forget It,” Gambit envisioned a picnic scene that suggested the date ended in heartbreak.
DELIVERY
I created a scene with all the essentials of a classic picnic date, but with a somber twist. Details like wilted flower petals, spilled wine resembling a broken heart, and looming clouds disrupting a sunny day help tell the story. The concept was to present a charming picnic at first glance, but upon closer inspection, reveal that the date didn’t end well.

BAD BEHAVIOR
For the “Bad Behavior” cover, Gambit wanted a lively disco vibe that captured the energy of dancing and nightlife.
DELIVERY
In the lyrics, he references a girl who appears to be the central theme of the song. I illustrated her in disco attire, dancing on top of a larger version of herself to create a surreal, layered effect. Her thought bubble hints that she wants the rapper to come over, adding a playful narrative to the image. I used bright, vibrant colors to give the cover a fun, energetic feel.

ALRIGHT
For "Alright," the artist wanted something more surreal and unusual. With minimal direction, he gave me a lot of creative freedom to explore the concept.
DELIVERY
I transformed each visual lyric in the song into a character. For example, in the line “I’m kicking ass so fast that I might be wearing down my Nikes,” I designed a pair of Nike sneakers with the swoosh shaped like a lightning bolt. To help viewers better understand the individual elements, I also included close-up shots that highlight key details, like you would see in a science book.
