ENSTRUMENTAL + MIAH THE CREATOR
"OH MY GOD"
Limited Edition Print Project Release
March 2022
In March of 2022, I collaborated with the brilliant Chicago-based artist – Jamiah Calvin (Miah The Creator).
This print project was inspired by the music/production and cover of A Tribe Called Quest’s classic 3rd album – “Midnight Marauders.” One of the greatest albums (& covers) and groups OF ALL TIME.
The title of (and phraseology associated with) this release was in reference to the following:
Miah’s feelings/reaction upon first hearing this album,
This print project was inspired by the music/production and cover of A Tribe Called Quest’s classic 3rd album – “Midnight Marauders.” One of the greatest albums (& covers) and groups OF ALL TIME.
The title of (and phraseology associated with) this release was in reference to the following:
Miah’s feelings/reaction upon first hearing this album,
- The 3rd single and Track 10 from the album,
- An exclamatory expression of excitement and surprise, in particular relation to Miah’s kids holding the vinyl record, viewing it as a shock to see this as an actual medium for audio recording/listening,
- A spiritual interjection and prayerful invocation in the context of gratitude, and
- A musical discovery and connection/”vibes” between the generations, speaking to the power, relationship, and legacy of a father and his son(s).
