MF Doom - Operation Greenbacks

The Playstation 2 era is dear to my heart. Small independent video game studios trying to squeeze every single drop of creativity into their magnum opus at that moment through new technology to imbue a sense of wonder into the heart of the gamer with an amalgam of graphics, programming and gameplay.
Going through some old hip hop magazines just after his passing, I got the idea to make this Playstation 2 inspired cover with MF DOOM as protagonist, slaying fake industry devils in the music business.
I made up a story around it. It is a tongue-in-cheek critique of the music industry, how it went from people with actual talent and skill to a record industry hell what made black entertainment into clown world and other unholiness.
