Kobby Dope explains the Rib Cage Music mixtape cover


The cover ( just like other covers, lol ) summarises the whole project in a single picture.
The central image is a a boy who has slept off whiles writing something ( rap ) even after
trying to get "hype" from the drink next to him. This signifies hardwork, attempted
perserverance. The small cassette player, paper and pen depicts the use of any available means.
The original beats head phones signifies keeping it real..The big ass speakers behind him
playing music shows the many distractions which he is trying to prevent with the headphones.
The pieces of paper tissue all over the table suggests he has a catarrh or sniffles which
doesnot stop him from working and also that he has been at it and re-trying for sometime. He is wearing
a ghanaian textile shirt and beads just like the maker of the tape.
The whole picture was hand drawn by @im_not_sarboat making it simple, easy to relate to,
real and raw at a distance and complicated and having a deeper meaning when looked at
 closely just like the tape.Follow @KobbyDope and @RibCageMusic for more updates
