The Art of Storytelling: Imani of the Pharcyde
January 3rd 11, 8:03

Although the legendary hip hop group, the Pharcyde is no longer together, their legacy and influence can still be felt today, throughout many a sub culture, all over the world. The Pharcyde’s specific brand of “alternative hip hop” continues to echo loudly in many walks of life, still remembered for such classics as Passin Me By, Runnin and Otra Fish.In this short interview, the first installment of “The Art of Storytelling”, Imani speaks about the evolution of hip hop, tight jeans, his first hip hop record and taking shrooms in the forest with white peacocks! Toward the end of the interview, Imani debuts a new track titled “Scrilla D.E.P”

Barry McGee x Armory Center for the Arts
September 24th 09, 13:49

Barry McGee (TWIST) of San Francisco, is one of the artists commissioned to create installation art in celebration of Pasadena’s Armory Center for the Arts’ 20th anniversary. The show is off site at Known Gallery. McGee’s signature geometric designs are hung in panels of all sizes thoughtfully pieced together to hug and fit the gallery’s own niches, corners and walls. Amongst the tailored panels McGee hangs a reference to Claire Roja’s work with a small tile tucked and hidden near the doorway. McGee’s show also features some kinetic art; one which welcomes you upon entrance, like a store display. There was also a very lurky hand holding a can of Rusto protruding from a tree. McGee also features some of his photos of other writers doing their deeds and pays a tribute to Sace IRAK who passed away this last summer. McGee’s installation satisfyingly delivers all the thrills and goodies of every McGee show, with some new kicks and highlights as well. The show is up at Known Gallery until December 31.
