Overview

Gangstæxtemism (also known as Pen N' Pixel) is a design style commonly used on early 2000s hip-hop album covers and promotional material. The style revolves around extreme displays of wealth and status through garish and amateur computer composite work. Most examples of Gangstæxtemism are edited to a point of absurdity.
