Mel D. Cole hits a milestone with his first album cover photograph for Jadakiss’s I Love You, a mixtape tribute to his fans.
How it happened in Cole’s own words below:
I received a email from the graphic designer who also hails from Syracuse, NY ( My home town). The email said that Jada loved my photo and wanted to use it for his mixtape. Next thing you know Blair and I are in convos with Def Jam negotiating the price for them to purchase the image.
Anyways…I am very fucking happy about this! I fucks with Jada..he is one of my favs and to have the honor of being apart of his latest CD is a dream come true!
