Fans are treated to an early taste of Chapter One with the Animated Album Trailer by Stellar Hawk + illustrator Dan Lish, debuting with Rolling Stone today.Produced by J.PERIOD (alongside a GRAMMY-winning team of writers and musicians), Story To Tell envisions a vibrant world of connections-between artists, songs, stories, genres, cultures, and generations: a web of creative impulses that flows like a mixtape, and bangs like a blockbuster. It brims with energy, breaks boundaries and conventions, and leads to unexpected combinations that surprise and delight. It's a new kind of musical storybook, and an eye-popping, ear-opening ride.
J.PERIOD's past work includes collaborations with music royalty (The Roots, Q-Tip, Mary J. Blige, John Legend), a Billboard #1 for The Hamilton Mixtape, a landmark role as Music Supervisor for the NBA's Brooklyn Nets, and a founding seat on The Kennedy Center's Hip Hop Culture Council.Watch the album trailer here:
