Build & Destroy. Lost Session Part 1 is a hip-hop mixtape CD created by Royce Da 5′9″. Distributed and published by Trouble Records, it was released in July 29, 2003

The album art combines two grunged typewriter fonts: while the title on the front cover uses Vintage Typewriter One, the one seen on the CD label and the back cover is 1942 Report.

The artist’s logo stylized as “R5'9" ROYCE” is based on Mason Serif. Additional edits are made to “ROYCE” such as the R, Y and E.

The back cover additionally uses Eurostile for the credits.
