The Connecticut-based rapper wanted a cover for his single "You Only Love Me When I'm Gone." The lyrics describe a recurring cycle of a particular relationship. She breaks up with him, regrets it, and wants him back. A pattern that repeated several times throughout their relationship. He wanted the cover to capture that story visually.

To visually represent the song's story, I designed a repeating pattern that mirrors the cycle of breakups and making up that the client raps about. The pattern's repetition reflects her recurring realization that she's still in love with him and keeps coming back.
