Here at Jojocrews we are all about pop culture, music, reality TV and fashion, but we also get super excited about lifestyle brands and art. Case in point, Nashville, TN based illustrator, graphic artist, and painter Xavier Payne or XPayne as he creatively goes by.

In his own words:

” My work is simplified shapes injected with a youthful, but mature, spirit. I appreciate fluidity and consistency in execution and I attempt to design work that could translate to several mediums and still carry the same energy with the simplified style I use”

In Our Words:

This dude simply F’ing rocks!!

X refers to his work as “Black Pop” and we couldn’t agree more, peep some of his art below inspired by some of our favorites from the 90’s and the most defining and memorable moments, and faces in urban pop culture!
