A first look at the official cover and blurb design for Wombanhood.

A special recognition and thanks to Jahvinci (IG: @Reldavinci__) for creation of the cover artwork. This collaboration was long overdue and the cover came out so dope- I couldn’t be more obsessed with it. It’s the womb that breeds you, literally. Rel’s interpretation of the concept is perfectly subtle, yet stunning and sensual. ‘Wombanhood’ will be available for purchase as an iBook for a very limited time- add it to your library while you can! iBooks pre-order is officially live today.

January 17th, 2024 will be the exclusive digital release.

The womb that breeds you presents: ‘wombanhood’ Blurb reveal

The original cover art for The Womb That Breeds You was meant to embody and showcase what it means to be a woman in a raw, relatable, and intriguing way. There’s the image of the legs propped open- the womb exposed, the puckering red lips, a wink, and a cigarette to the “mouth”. It catches the eye, surely. Back in 2017, it was a bold choice. A mix of promiscuity, femininity, familiarity, and quite frankly, vulgarity. The point of the cover and all of the poetry within has always been to grab your attention, to make you feel. To admire womanhood through all of its stages and appreciate every type of woman, not just some types. An ode to growing up as a girl of color who was just learning to navigate through love without having ever been taught how. As i’m sure you’d imagine, the captivating paradox of beauty and grit was inevitable.

I knew immediately that the new cover must evoke the same level of allure and emotion in an elevated, more sophisticated, more grown woman way. It was important for me to keep the core of the cover artwork … the same message, but with a new flare and a new interpretation from a different artist. I’ve put so much thought into every detail of this project. It’s going to be really special. With the cover and blurb design, I even considered how different colors would effect the mood and feel of it all. I went with oranges, and reds, and ambers because they represent passion, fire, warmth, and sensuality- all characteristics of a stellar woman. The illustrated design is what I believe to be an artistic metaphor of the womb.

Here’s a first look at the blurb design for,

The Womb That Breeds You v2: ‘Wombanhood’.
