Clients in unexpected places!

"Yo, who did the art on your flyer"
"I did...Why do you ask?"
"I think you just got yourself a customer..."

And that's EXACTLY how it went down. I was on the phone trying to pay for my flyers and freelance job was born! Who would've known man!


This never before seen piece was comissioned by a chill dude named Khris who works at that printing business. He really liked "Lyrics and Battles" - the June 2007 M3rd flyer art (we'll talk about that later...). He wanted a 12" X 12" custom piece where I had creative license to rock and interpret his chosen theme: FACE YOUR SHAME....



The moral of the story is...YOU NEVER KNOW WHERE AN OPPORTUNITY WILL SHOW! I'd say it was a win-win situation. Good looking out Khris!

Mariella's Birthday Bash!

Who said Friday the 13th is always unlucky?Ahem...I found a discrepancy tonight dammit!

My soul sister... the beautiful Mariella and her band blessed us all with one of the most powerful performances I have witnessed to date. FYI...our birthday girl -Mariella, is also the counterpart host to freestyle terror - IllspoKiNn at the famous "Freestyle Mondays" live Hip Hop at Sin Sin Lounge in NYC. You'll often find her weaving her soulful voice into the fabric of the night's cipher. No nonsense, just a bad ass band with bad ass emcees, poets, singers etc...

So Mari-hell-yeah like we call her, held her b-day bash at a really chill and understated loft space in the financial district. You wouldn't even know the entrance if you walked passed it. But what went down on the inside...WELL!...lets take a look here:

And then all Mari-hell broke loose...

You rock mamita!
