MEETING ARTIST DANNY SIMMONS

(pictured above: Greg, Edreys, Danny)

I had the pleasure of meeting artist Danny Simmons while on my short 36 hour trip through NYC. His studio is full of african artifacts and other artists works, as he is also a collector. To the (left) of Greg you can see a Romare Bearden.

Recognized as an artist first, many people will recognize Danny as brother of mogul Russell Simmons (Phat Pharm, Def Jam). Danny was very inspiring and actually a hilarious guy. I laughed the entire time I was there, although while showing us his work, he was very serious and passionate as an artist should be. If you watch Run’s House, you may notice him from this episode below.

NO SLEEP TIL BROOKLYN

After landing safely at JFK, I  pleasantly traveled to Brooklyn to meet the appraiser/collector  and art enthusiast Mark Dabney. We met at the famous Junior’s which was right around the corner from the Gallery/Lounge on Rockwell Place. I didn’t get a chance to try any of the Junior’s seafood or cheesecake, but it surely look Deelissh!!!

I had 4 pieces shipped to be in this show along with artists Bobby Hill (NYC) and Sole Sister (TX). The reception was cool and I actually sold a piece. So, as Ice Cube would say…”Today was a good day!”


OUTSIDE OF THE BOX, DUMMY!!

From thought and concept to execution and production, this video is truly profound. From old traditional puppet theater to full blown Rock concert with pyro and stage diving!!! 

Thinking outside of the box!


GRACEFULLY

Pondering on the genius of Grace Jones.

GET THE MONKEY OFF OF YOUR BACK. ITS 09′!

Thanks to CaferroThomas for the fun and playful adaptation of the Superman Swag song to the Superman cartoon clip. 

Greetings as we take another step forward into history. Of course the biggest thing that we’ll hear about this month alone will be the changing of the guard in the White House. That’s cool, but selfishly I have to commit to ME and I encourage YOU to commit to you!!!

May you find your passion, purpose and path. Put on your Superman Swag and “GET FLY”…
Cheers to leaving 08 behind and stepping into 09!
peace

OLD SCHOOL FLYER: HAND DRAWN

old-school-flyer

My long-time friend DJ Riq sent this to me. It’s a hand drawn flyer from 1995 for a party. This pre-dated my Adobe Photoshop experience. So I had to do it old school style by drawing on plain white paper and making xerox copies at Kinkos on the stock colored paper. What a great piece of memorabalia.
