Album cover design for SHAOLIN JAZZ’s “Blow One for Clarence” release. “Blow One for Clarence” is the newest in their tribute series (fusing and highlighting the genres of Jazz and Hip-Hop) where the cultural group is paying homage to an iconic artist by the name of Clarence Reid.
Reid, an accomplished musician, producer, and writer created material for and was sampled by notable acts from KC and the Sunshine Band to DMX, and his uninhibited alter ego “Blowfly” served as an influencer to a range of famed hip-hop artists, such as Snoop Dogg and Ol’ Dirty Bastard.
