Art Chicago NEXT

Hello my brothers. It's been awhile since I have given you reason to love me. I have been busy creating new wonderful things to give to the world. Ohh my brothers the days have been long and blending together. My brothers I have tasted minor success and like a shark with a hint of blood, I want more. The summer air is filling my lungs and I am getting excited. Excited at the shear possibility of what my future holds. I shall continue to pilot the space craft as long as you promise to man it.

That BITCH!!!

So about 2 years ago I was hired to do this installation painting for this chick. After a day of work I and what I thought to be a good start, she calls the interior design at 2 am and tells him she wants me to stop. The next day we paid her a visit and she said she wanted me to stop because I was stealing thoughts and bad memories from her head and she couldn't take it. Did I mention that this Bitch was a serious pot/coke head? The convo got heated and I called her a crazy bitch and stormed outta her crib, never really getting any good flicks of the unfinished work and leaving behind all my cans and paint. That Crazy Bitch!

Destino DALI + Walt Disney

If you are a Mos Def fan, and you probably should be, this is going to be a really cool show. HVW8 Gallery in Los Angeles, that has some of the most interesting shows in all of the southland, is hosting a one week exhibition of my man Cognito's (www.frolab.com) photos of Mos Def and the Ecstatic Tour all over the world
