Rapper Steph Logo/Branding

Rapper Steph is a Boston-based hip hop artist who, at the time, was one of the premiere artists of Basetrip Records. This project consisted of logo and stationery design.

The inspiration for this logo was a photograph of Stephanie Domingo, the woman behind the stage persona Rapper Steph. The basic idea was to create a vectorized version of the artist's face in a way such that it would pop against the backdrop of a t-shirt, poster, or various stationery.

Since a lot of Rapper Steph's material is politically rooted, it made sense to have the design itself be vaguely reminiscent of a US quarter.
