Cey Adams Brings His Iconic Hip-Hop Art to Life in Miami Masterclass

This upcoming weekend, legendary graphic designer Cey Adams—the creative force behind iconic album covers for Run-D.M.C., Beastie Boys, LL Cool J, Public Enemy, and Jay-Z—will host a one-day-only collage masterclass at the Art of Hip Hop in Wynwood.

More than just a class, this hands-on experience offers attendees the unique opportunity to learn directly from one of hip-hop’s most influential visual artists in his solo exhibition, Departure: 40 Years of Art & Design. As part of the Monster Energy Monthly Program Series, the workshop includes all necessary supplies, ensuring participants fully immerse themselves in the creative process.

Cey Adams is a true pioneer in hip-hop’s visual storytelling. Long before the digital era, he was handcrafting the aesthetic that helped define the culture—cutting, pasting, layering textures, and shaping the look of an emerging global movement. This masterclass is a rare opportunity to step into his world, gain firsthand insight into his process, and create alongside a living legend.
