Ain't Nothing Like Hip Hop Music
Some years ago I asked a few of my friends to pose for paintings that incorporated their love for Hip Hop culture with their portrait. I also asked them to list ten albums that was their all time favorites as well as choose one symbol, that to them, summed up the genre.
The following photos are two of the paintings in the series a little before they were completed:
"Hip Hop Series: Will", acrylic on canvas
"Hip Hop Series: Self", acrylic on canvas
This subject matter is still dear to me as this was one of the music genres that shaped my formative years, and I would like to keep this an ongoing series. So stay tuned for more in the future!

Very cool. I will also admit that HipHop came along during my formative years as well, and it made it a very interesting time. I love this initiative and the paintings were really cool.

Your style is awesome and your so talented love seeing your work
Thank you very much @tattoodjay :D It is a style very influenced from the street art that I used to look at as a child-- growing up in the inner city, the walls of buildings were my only access to "art galleries" :)
well keep up the work I love your style and it needs to be seen more ;)
