BlackBook How To - By DazeRoc - Wild Style Technicians

BlackBook How To

So the other day during "BlackBook Sessions" I was asked to hit up a book as I often get asked. I hardly even make time for myself to get loose anymore so this took a few weeks to finalized but the recipient gets rewarded for his patience. Not having colored a piecebook in quite sometime I had no idea where to start, so I decided to document the process. What I ended up with is something I hope helps and or motivates others to get those pens out and get it in. Cant forget to big up my man Beatsmith Resist for helping me large with beats for my projects. Check him out @ www.BeatsmithResist.com  Hope you guys enjoy.

Guerrilla Posting - Rap Quote Signs - Jay Shells'

Jay Shells' Rap Quotes - LA Edition

Here's a real cool video I ran across.  It's a guerrilla style rap quote project that I found interesting. The artist name is Jay Shells' and he is famous for posting realistic street signs that read something else.  I love the guerrilla tactics.. On this edition he comes to Los Angeles with a trunk load of famous rap quotes from LA rapers.  The quotes make mention of a specific address and Jay drives there and permanently installs the signs.  Here's a few of the quotes he used: "So I hook a left on 2-1 & Lewis, Some brothers shooting dice so I said let's do this" - Warren G.  "It's hell hot, we pull up to Dockweiler, The scene is so lovely, it make me wanna holla" - Defari.  "So now I'm down Rosecrans in LA in a caravan, passing Alameda my bass meter in need of a pump" - Kendrick Lamar.  "Down LA Cienega to bust a left on Venice where you can find me and mines" - Xzibit.  He ended up putting up 45 of these around LA.  I wonder how long they stayed up and how manny if any are still up.  Enjoy!
