In
the history of hip-hop, no photographer has created more memorable
images of the culture than Jonathan Mannion. Since he stepped onto the
New York rap scene in 1993, the Cleveland native has produced iconic
visuals that indelibly defined a generation of rap, R&B, and reggae
artists.
Mannion’s
first established himself as a cultural force through his work with the
recording industry, documenting over twenty years of hip-hop music.
Early in his career, when many in mainstream media were dismissing rap
music as a passing fad, Mannion was hustling to create the cover art for
Jay-Z’s debut LP, Reasonable Doubt. It was the first of many iconic
album covers with prominent MCs that quickly crowned Mannion as
hip-hop’s premiere visual biographer.
Hennessy
is excited to introduce Jonathan Mannion to Nigeria; projecting him as a
perfect representation of a genre that has played an important role in
the growth of the brand – Hip Hop.
This October, as part of the celebrations of Hennessy Artistry, the legendary photographer will be in Lagos to showcase some of his most iconic works!
“We
are excited about bringing Jonathan Mannion to Nigeria. Both Hennessy
and Jonathan have played a key role in the development and formation of
the DNA of the Hip Hop Music & Culture. Art and Hip Hop Enthusiasts
will be presented with an invaluable opportunity to explore some of
Jonathan Mannion’s legendary body of work. For us, this is an
initiative which remains true to Hennessy Artistry - celebrating Music,
and in this case, rather creatively and hopefully, memorably" Lere Awokoya - Brand Manager for Hennessy Nigeria”.
The
project being the first of its kind in Nigeria, is another initiative
of Hennessy Artistry as a continuous means of expressing its love for Music.
