Streaming Tug of War for Billboard
The Brief: Taylor Swift, Cardi B, The Weeknd, Tik Tok'r Charli D’Amelio, Joe Rogan, and (Super) Mario engaged in a tug of war over a giant pair of headphones. Yes please!

"Streaming services have continued to add U.S. subscribers this year, growing to 117.9 million by the end of September, (up 11 million since January), but in a potentially troubling sign for the U.S. music business, total streams have remained the same."

Very fun illustration for Billboard. There were a few revisions and there was some sleep lost to get it done in time, but I think it turned out great!
Here’s some process for ya!
