Summary
Damn Son Where Did You Find This?" is the first book ever to focus on the cover art of the modern US hiphop mixtape. A visual world that reached unseen levels at the turn of the millennium, uncensored, unregulated and extreme, it is a the most anarchic of all genres of graphic design. Freed from major label guidelines, lawyer opinions and moral hindrances the designers featured in "Damn Son Where Did You Find This?" are truly unique, something that is hard to come by in today's global world of intertwined visual tendencies. Along with 500 cover artworks from designers KidEight, Miami Kaos, Mike Rev, Tansta & Skrilla, indulging interviews tell the stories of how they slipped into the hiphop mixtape industry.
