TRAILER OF THE WEEK





For those of you that like Thrillers and Scary Movies, these are the films of my child hood that I can remember. Moms and Pops use to take me and these movies impacted my life not sure if it was good or bad but they definitely impacted my life.

RESTORED WITH PRIDE











I was in the San Gabriel Valley today making my rounds through D & D Customs, Mario's Auto Works and Top Stitch checking on all my current projects.. But my first stop was
"The Chevy Shop" in El Monte. I was really impressed by the quality of the finished show cars and the owner Bert and his huge collection of raw Chevrolet's some for restoration and some were parts cars. Bert has recently had five cars featured on the cover of Lowrider Magazine this year and he has a massive collection of hard to find GM accessories. His shop builds cars to show room condition or a custom Lowrider with hydraulics.
They specialize in 1955-1957 Chevy Bel Airs, 1958 - 1964 Impalas. What ever your budget can handle
"The Chevy Shop" has something for you.

TAYLOR NOT SO SWIFT!






I was in New York City watching the VMa's Live.. I thought Russel Brand was funny and different but by the looks of the faces in the crowd, I could tell he went over everyones head.. Lady Gaga is dope especially her Christmas wreath face mask. Thank God someone is original! Beyonce once again killed it and shook every R&B chick watching (except Mary J. Blige).. I thought it was funny when Kanye West jumped up on stage, cause he disrupted a boring moment. He was correct in saying that Beyonce should have won, but his Ego and Timing over shadowed the Truth. Taylor Swift needs to stay at the Country Music Awards cause she has no Swag, Rhythm, or Street smarts to survive a simple altercation . My 4yr old Daughter would have not let him walk away with out saying "My Daddy is going to kick your ass..." She should have told him" Don't be mad at me, You should be mad at that barber who cut your hair.." Taylor Swift isn't so swift, she stiffed. Seventeen or not Taylor came off ungrateful and selfish for Not Thanking Beyonce for doing something she didn't have too. Thanks Jay Z and Alicia Keys for the Hottest song of the Year. Unfortunately for us the Night was ruined by Corn Ball, No hit having," Lil Mama".. Thank God Jay turned his back to her. I think she jumped on stage cause she thinks she is miss New York, but miss NY moved to Hollywood for a measly check. If Kanye would have not jumped on stage, no one would have been talkin about it. God Bless Alicia Keys and H.O.V the God..

Late Night NY Style

Trey  came through for a traditional rocker piece its 3 am and we got 2 more appointments in the house.

THE CITY THAT NEVER SLEEPS....














Last Night I tattooed the homie Pecas and Tommy Guns from NYC, We pulled an all
nighter. At 6am I had to go down and design the room for the VMAS official
gifting suites, check out the 2 canvases I did and the window I had to take
it to the old school and bust out my brushes and bust out my logo across the
hotel windows so people know were they are at. The house of hype is doing it
big, with the hotel Rivington being a great a host. Thanks again to Gab's And Pecas.
