Deze gozer is dus lekker bezig! Meest boeiend vond ik het verhaal dat hij niet naar school wou gaan en ook geen zin had in ‘a nine to five’ baantje.

“If i’m not willing to resort from nine to five or school, the classical way or the classical route to succes in this country, i had to step it up; and thats when, i think, i became a professional.”

Deze jongen doet dus lekker waar hij zin in heeft en bezwijkt niet onder de druk van de maatschappij om te doen wat er van hem verwacht word.

An in-depth look at A.S.A.P.’s resident Visual Artist, Justin West.

Responsible for the artwork behind ASAP Rocky’s videos such as Purple Swag, Peso, and Wassup, this Harlem giant has exhibited in numerous Galleries, from his hometown to his most recent showing in NY’s most prominent art scene, Chelsea. We take a look at his beginnings, struggles as an artist and the man’s thought process behind his work. Definitely an individual dedicated to his many passions, we present you “Portrait of a Harlem Artist, Justin West”
