Jonwayne – Word Play
Jonwayne is an American record producer, musician, and poet, though he is best known for his impressive vernacular as an existential rapper. His debut album Bowser is a compilation of 8-bit video game timbres worked into hip hop beats, and from there he built himself a name in the rap game.
Given the opportunity to build and name a conceptual album with his work, I decided to create Word Play, which celebrates his musical origins as well as his inspiring health and career recovery.
After turning to interviews and understanding his story, I quickly learned that he dislikes speaking to his melancholy. The songs I selected from Rap Album 2 have strong poetic narrative that allude to the therapy and solace that music provides for him
When deciding on an everyday object to encapsulate his music, I found a video game controller appropriate. I decided on the title Word Play in order to link his varied musical styles; I created an 8-bit Jonwayne character escaping the confines of his screen to return back to the playful music production that started it all. The looping GameCube cord forms his signature, which rests on my signed copy of his poetry book.
