My current recommendation is Unsplash+ (the paid plan of Unsplash). It offers quite impressive illustrations at an affordable subscription price.

In the world of rap, artwork is a powerful tool for making a memorable first impression and capturing attention. The right visual can set the tone for your music, reflect your unique style, and strengthen your brand identity, helping you stand out in a crowded scene.

Artwork That Reflects Your Sound

• Select visuals that match the energy, mood, and message of your rap music.
• Your cover art should give listeners a sense of your style before they even press play.

Bold and Memorable Design

• Keep your artwork simple but impactful to ensure it sticks in people’s minds.
• A strong, clear design helps your music look professional and recognizable.

Optimized for Mobile and Legal Use

• Make sure your artwork looks great on smartphones and streaming platforms.
• Always use original images or properly licensed content to avoid copyright issues.

Recommended Tools

• Canva: Great for creating eye-catching designs quickly and easily.
• Fiverr / Coconala: Hire professional designers for custom, high-quality artwork tailored to your vision.

With standout artwork, you can visually engage your audience, reinforce your identity as a rapper, and increase your chances of success in the music industry.

Poe.com (Stable Diffusion XL) – I feel that if you enter the word “Illustration” in the prompt, it will give you a pretty good illustration.

ViewExif – It’s great that you can delete it with one tap.

Foodie – Free app with ads. Advertisements appear, but you can add noise using a filter called Grain.

BeCasso – Feels like a combination of the above apps. The monthly fee is high, but it’s quite useful.

Brushstroke – An app that creates a different atmosphere than BeCasso. Quite useful.
