Prompt

A professional academic research poster about "Myth of the Real: Lying, Persona, and Performance in Rap" with a clean, modern design. The poster should have a sophisticated layout suitable for an academic conference but with subtle hip hop visual elements or motifs. Include space for title, subtitle, and thesis statement. Use a color scheme that suggests duality and performance - perhaps contrasting colors or visual elements that represent the theme of authenticity versus persona. Include subtle imagery that might represent Jay-Z and Iceberg Slim as mentioned in the examples. The design should be professional but visually engaging, appropriate for an academic presentation about hip hop culture.
