Target Client | Baby Keem

Creative + Design + Marketing

The purpose of this work is to showcase my expertise and creative vision in enhancing artist development and the artist-to-fan connection for artists like Baby Keem. I aim to collaborate with their teams to develop memorable experiences through album rollouts, touring, film and timeless products.

The time spent producing an album should directly impact how its story is told visually. Today, with singles and social media shaping the industry, an artist’s visual identity—through music videos, performances, merchandise and social content—plays a vital role in their success. Still, many artists struggle to create a cohesive visual story, underscoring the importance of artist development. Platforms like TikTok and Instagram offer more exposure to independent artists, but also create pressure to constantly produce content. In this landscape, investing in a strong visual strategy is essential for building lasting impact. Music is timeless, often tied to memories of where we were when an album dropped. Artists should think not just about the present but how their story will be perceived years from now. Storytelling should evolve beyond sound, becoming an immersive experience that touches every human sense.

Deepening the artist-to-fan connection has always been my passion. Album rollouts deserve top-tier creative strategies that reflect the artist’s vision while creating lasting, authentic connections. The goal is to craft work that resonates deeply, leaving a lasting impact on both culture and the audience. Music should be more than sound—it should be an experience that binds us together.

While it's great to see all of Keem’s releases together, the art direction and execution of his covers have untapped potential. Compared to the artists and peers who inspire him, there’s an opportunity to push the visual side even further. With more refined creative + art direction, his cover designs could better reflect his evolving artistry and set him apart, making a stronger impact in both music and visual storytelling.
