Good Blending
Vectors are looking cool.
Text can be better imo.
Can make some colour adjustment
overall a very nice tag.

I did a lot color adjustments/gradient maps. Tried to balance it as much as possible, I had about 3-4x the amount of colors going on in the BG before. It wasn't flowing very good at all. As far as the text goes, I'm terrible any suggestions on good fonts or styles to use?

all right. you can reduce the opacity of the g-map used. soft light mode will be good with opacity of aroung 30%. In any case, as for the text you can stylize the text according to your imagination. there are several good fonts, like bleeding cowboys, old london, batman fonts though batman font wont suit this tag. moreover you can blend the text using blending options. depending on the angle of the light source you can use gradient over the text, which looks good.
actually I am myself not good when it comes to text. Still I try Different combinations.

keep all the text in the same place, it makes 3 focals in your sig, also keep it close to the main focal like near the right side just above the shoulder. the sharpness on the face is off a lil bit needs a lil more blending. The foreground flow is thrown off by the bg flow, foreground goes bottom to top, bg goes bottom left to top right, rotating the foreground vector effects to flow with the bg lines and effects would help increase the flow in this sig. Good work so far prodigy gfx.

Agree with everything you said, I was having trouble with the face and sharpness and lighting, I will spend more time on it :( The vector in the foreground is troubling me too, not sure how to blend it more, but I will try rotating it as you said. I will try to move around the text too. Oh and if you have made any sigs of Katy Perry like your Kanye sig I'd like to see them :D

I'm still not happy with the text any help would be appreciated.

Colors look great and effects are good also, blending around the render / lighting is overdone and washes out the middle of the sig.
