The short answer
What is the JAY-Z Empire State of Mind poster?
This is a fan-made graphic tribute built around a black and white portrait of JAY-Z in a dark satin jacket, with bold red serif lettering spelling Empire State of Mind across the top. The title refers to the song and its New York theme, and the grey backdrop of sketched musical notes and instruments adds a layered, collage-like texture. It is a graphic design by a fan, not artwork by the artist or any label.
Printed on heavyweight matte paper, made to order in the USA, available in 11x14, 16x20, 18x24 and 24x36 inches, unframed or in a black or white frame.
