From New Jersey to Chicago. From Chicago to New Jersey. I first met Rotimi at a recording session with Jargon. We networked and he saw that I did graphics. So I ended up doing him a banner then a cd cover for his first single "Beautiful Music". He's still doing his thing as the future of R&B. I caught up with him today and saw that he is doing a track for his lastest project drop March 29, 2011 called "The Resume" Mixtape.
Here is a teaser.
Here is the Banner I did over a year ago in the very beginning of this clip and at the end. The cover for the single I will post it later.
