Relevant parts:

C'babi also created three point of sale posters for Coca-Cola, and one of his paintings will appear on the cover of an upcoming album by Prince . According to a bio on one of the many Web pages about him, "Through his artwork, he is able to show the beauty in
black faces to all faces."

How did the Prince album cover come about?
Prince bought eight of my originals. He decided he wanted to use one of them - the Reine

Keis Quintet - as his next album cover. I'm not sure what the release date is.

How about the Violator cover?
They saw some of my illustrations in Rap Pages magazine and hired me.

Which of your accomplishments are you most proud of?
I'm really pleased with the work I did for Coke. I don't usually enjoy doing stuff on command, so that was a challenge and it turned out really well. I'm also glad Prince is a collector.
