Nice work of art. I wonder who's the graphic designer, I've been wanting to find out more Hip Hop-influenced graphic designers lately as I look back on all the album artwork in my cd/tape/vinyl collection.

That "I" was killing me. I knew it was some alternate version of "My Myself and I" but I couldn't find proof.

So now only that "Y" is left, right?
