The Roots Mural Project
June 25, 2012
I’m working on a pretty big project with the Philadelphia Mural Arts Program. We’re creating a mural in honor of The Legendary Roots Crew – one of my favorite bands. It’s a pretty dope project to be involved in. I’m working with Amber Design Collective – a Philly based group of accomplished muralists and artists.
I’ll be posting more about the mural as it goes on. We’re still in the beginning stages as of now. Here are a few pics of from the project so far:
Myself, Questlove, and Amber Design Collective.

This looks like an amazing project. I love the Mural Arts Program, I think every city in America should have a comparable organization. The many gorgeous murals from the Zoo to South Street to Chinatown all over Philly give the city a cool vibe and clever urban renewal.

Congrats! Can’t wait to see more of it.
