I chose to create an album cover for Rizzle Kicks because their music appeals to me and because they seemed so refreshing genuine, comical and likable in their interviews and in the banter between tracks on their album. For the portraits themselves, I chose images showing this playfulness and humour contrasted against their evident confidence and aspiration. The high rise flats are a symbol of the poorer and more troubled sections of society which it seems the pair indentify with, describing themselves as having 芒聙聹battered teenage lives芒聙聺 and touching on darker events they have experienced saying 芒聙聹I don芒聙聶t wanna rap about knives and arms and types of cars I芒聙聶ve swiped.芒聙聺 I chose to create vector images of the flats rather than cut up photographs because Rizzle Kicks admirably do not dwell on the grim and ugly parts of their background so using grim and ugly photos of the buildings didn芒聙聶t seem fitting. The pink sky-arm-things delivering words are open to the audiences interpretation, my ideas for them are something along the lines of them representing their words circulating through the city and their source being inspiration or skill originating from a higher plane. Argh 200 words is a squeeze.
