OVERSEER KRS ONE HIP HOP POSTER
This powerful “Officer Overseer” poster is inspired by KRS-One’s iconic 1993 conscious hip-hop track “Sound of da Police.” Designed around the famous lyrical parallel—“officer, overseer”—the artwork visually breaks down the words to echo the song’s core message about systemic oppression and historical continuity. As KRS-One highlights the link between modern policing and slave-era overseers, this poster transforms that commentary into striking, minimalist typography that grows increasingly distorted as the words shift from “OFFICER” to “OVERSEER.” Bold, black-and-white contrast reinforces the urgency of the message, making it a thought-provoking piece for fans of hip-hop culture, social justice art, and politically engaged design. Perfect for home studios, classrooms, activism spaces, or collectors of 90s rap history, this print honors KRS-One’s legacy as The Teacha while encouraging viewers to reflect on inequality, authority, and the ongoing fight for justice.
