Creating Lil Nas X’s Iconic 'Industry Baby' Cover Art
Blunt Action had the pleasure of collaborating with Lil Nas X, his stylist Hodo Musa, and Columbia Records to create the iconic cover art for the hit single, "Industry Baby." Our goal was to visually capture Lil Nas X’s powerful journey and groundbreaking success with an impactful 3D rendering.
Inspired by the heavenly themes from his MONTERO album, the artwork depicts Lil Nas X crowned with a glowing halo, symbolizing his rise and creative vision. Dramatically breaking free from chains around his neck and body, the visual represents Lil Nas X triumphantly overcoming barriers in the music industry.
Our creative team meticulously crafted each detail—from the radiant halo to the textured chains—to highlight Lil Nas X’s unique artistry and message. We're honored to have played a role in creating this memorable visual, celebrating the spirit and ongoing influence of "Industry Baby."
