Verbal Acrobatics: Nas Poster - Done?

So after nearly a week of scribbling away on this it's finally done to the required amount I had planned.

Here are the two variants I'm still trying to choose between, I need some kind of imagery around Nas' head to create the negative space of his hair to complete his head, otherwise it's just his face that comes through.

I think I prefer the version with the greyed out text around the head  as that's what was originally planned, maybe I've just been staring at it too long but I feel something's not quite right with it at the moment.

I think my main concern is with the chorus lyrics around the head, it was pretty rushed. The idea is for the chorus that runs throughout the song "Da-Da Da-Da-Da (yeah!)" to be flowing around his head while you focus on Nas' lyrics he raps.  Up until I drew the stuff around his head I was pretty chuffed with it all, especially the detail!




##Final Mock-ups
















##Some process shots. Definitely the most time consuming so far, it had quite a few many different elements to draw, some pretty tiny and barely noticeable at actual size
