Growing up on ‘gangsta rap’ and simply having a passion for the hip-hop culture has lead me to do a lot of rapper/music inspired pieces over the years. I have to say groups like NWA made a huge impact on not only my youth, but the way I interpret urban imagery as artist in my adult years. Slanging hard core beats, nasty lyrics, and funky fresh kicks is all I wanted to do as a youngster…that has still not changed.
My love for zombie themes coalesced with dead rap artists seemed like the perfect route to get these martyrs of the game out there like never before. The criteria for the zombie rappers series is that this gang of artists must be deceased. This is an ongoing series that is not fully finished. These are offered as limited edition prints (signed and numbered by BeeryMethod), one off screen prints on wood panels with ink and finish, as well as to be offered soon on apparel. Keep your eyes peeled for the additions to this bad ass street-series as well as the upcoming tee shirt line!
ZOMBIGGIE (Biggie Smalls)
2DEAD (2Pac Shakur)
Ol Decay Bastard (Ol Dirty Bastard)
ZombEAZY (Eazy E)
Jam Maggots Jay (Jam Master Jay)
