MY PROCESS

KidEight is a self-taught digital artist, motion designer, and Photoshop savant who spent the first 15 years of his career as a freelance graphic designer. The ruthlessly consistent creative execution that KidEight became synonymous with made him somewhat of a masked vigilante in the music industry, responsible for conceptualising and producing iconic mixtape covers for global superstars and hip-hop sensations.

Described by The New York Times as "an eccentric master of Photoshop and logo re-appropriations, with a finely honed sense of the absurd," he has worked with Atlantic Records, Def Jam, Future, Gucci Mane, Fabolous, Moneybagg Yo, Chris Brown, and virtually every rapper and hip-hop icon since the turn of the millennium.

KidEight is a UK-based graphic designer, turned NFT artist, turned rapper? Well, not exactly.

Described by The New York Times as “an eccentric master of Photoshop and logo re-appropriations, with a finely honed sense of the absurd”.

KidEight’s early obsession with mainstream Western pop and internet culture contributed to the establishment of his idiosyncratic art style, breaking the mold of the somewhat codified industry standard for mixtape cover art.
