Pop Chart Lab has created a hip-hop periodic table in association with the A3C Hip-Hop Festival in Atlanta. It features “223 naturally occurring, never-word-slurring artists in all, from N(as) and (Dr) Dre to (Mf) Doom and (A$)AP Rocky to (D)rake and Snoop D-O-(gg).” Signed and numbered prints are available to purchase online.
Featuring color-coded labels indicating their favored genres–with special indicators for originators of a style–each MC has been meticulously hand-illustrated and assigned an appropriate chemical symbol, along with notations for debut year and geographic area of origin. Boasting chemistry like no science class has ever seen, this fly-entific periodic table swaps halogens and noble gasses for rap’s hallowed-gents and noble lasses—and is sure to be enjoyed far more than periodically. As a bad-ass bonus, each purchase of this print comes with a discount code for 2014 A3C Festival tickets!
