Lyric videos have been all the rage on YouTube for years, with fans showing off their iMovie skills by placing fancy fonts over images of a musician while his or her song plays in sync. But designer Jay Roeder did something a little bit more artistic: he created illustrated images for the lyrics to Notorious B.I.G.’s classic track “Juicy” (spotted on Egotripland, via The Hairpin). Sure, there are a couple of missing lyrics (a hand-drawn n-word still makes one uncomfy, I suppose), but this homage to Biggie’s wordplay is still pretty great.
