Def Clones Bug Out Session

Just got an email from my dude Wordspit who was doing his thing for the Def Clone Cipher in 14th Union Square park featuring Def AJ, Mickey Factz, Hi Jynx and others.

Yo Wordspit, you know you were stuntin' on that whole crowd of people right? And that girl was the shit. She made me smile.


The saddest thing in life is Wasted Talent.

Hard Knock Life

I'm back. Just moved to the Bay Area. Finally got my internet on and catching up on "hella" shit. That's some Cali slang for ya. It's such a different lifestyle. I'm not saying where I live, but let's just say there's hookers in daytime man... hookers in the daytime. Bums and crackheads hitting you up for cigarettes and change every 15 feet. LOL! It's crazy! But there art scene is huge out here, so I'm toughin' it out, fending off the wolves for my nicotine and crack change. Fucking up all my fly gear with paint and whatever the hell else I luckily bump into. Eating PB&J's everyday like it's the only thing on earth and make power moves 'til I get that daily sushi.

Annnd the last thing I posted about was the Cactus Dunny I had in the Kidrobot NYC store. The day I landed in Cali and I was just barely walking into my new home and I get a call saying the piece sold. It was only in there 2 weeks and it was sold to some rich dude from LA who had stripper poles in house and shit. He called me, but I deleted his number by accident. I hope he calls me up one day and invites me over to a sick party at his mansion. He said he was into "different" things. He never seen anything like it. He didn't even know what designer toys were, but he knew what's dope! I'll tell ya that!

Also, a bunch of upcoming custom shows are on the way including the I.T.D. Show June 5th @ 1:am Gallery in San Francisco. New tees on the way. Maybe some really dope collabs and new shit to make you say, "can you believe it? Look at this guy go!"

@ Kidrobot NYC

I now have a 1 of a kind custom 8 inch Dunny on display at Kidrobot NYC. This is my 2nd time selling my customs in Kidrobot. For $600 you can own this unique piece of art. It has 997 spikes that don't really make it a 100% easy to handle, which you shouldn't anyway since it's for display purposes only. Trust me, I've had my fair share of "OUCH!!! MOTHER FUCKER!!!" outbursts. This is the perfect piece for anybody who loves wildlife and vinyl equally as much... and you can display this anywhere.

My art gets around.

I've customized 2 D.I.Y. pieces for upcoming mini tours. The Mutt Toy by Tyler and the ILLAZILLA by TNES of Hippo Esthetics.

"Ah Shit!" Mutt Toy

"My Pet Zilla" ILLAZILLA. A lil' spin on the 1980's toy My Pet Monster. On sale here. You can check out pics from the 1st stop of the ILLAZILLA tour at APW Gallery here. Shout to Leonard for coming out with me that night.

The next show is the 1st stop of the Mutt mini tour that will also be at APW Gallery on April 3rd. Very cool place. Sure to be very cool people. Nearly every inch is covered with a canvas except the areas separated for personal show casings. Go check it out. I might be there...

It's alive...

Well... it's been 3 years and I managed to get this far without a blog or website. The website is still in the works, but this is the beginning of the blog for Wasted Talent. I never did this type of thing before, but if can keep shit up to date as much as I want, it should be pretty dope. I'm pretty sure it will be different then other blogs. I'll only be posting shit that involves my restless attempt to come up in the world of creativity or shit that interests me in general and I won't sugar coat anything. Everything from fashion to art to music to food. You know, same shit every other blog you read about posts, but much more of an eclectic version. I'm not your regular ol' Joe. My interests range very wide, but very few to the what I'd call the "norm". You'll never get what I mean, cause I'm a rare breed, but if you can relate... you already know, ya know?


Nobody on the corner got vision like us. I will not be a Wasted Talent. Greatest story ever told. Your not ready for the brilliance. 2009. GOD! AMEN! WHAT!?
