The Great Adventures of SLICK RICK
just two blocks away from yesterday's post photos
on my instagram


Yesterday's posted photo was made just 2 blocks from where i made this one! The Great Adventures of Slick Rick! One of my classic album covers, not only did i make the photos, but the whole album title and font design were also my ideas. We did this on the roof of my old building just before X-mas. My original idea was to take him to Times Square to work the photography. But Rick didn't want to shoot on the street, he was concerned about his own safety with all his jewelry, unless i had body guards with us, and that wasn't my style so we just did it up on my roof on 22nd street, and i came up with this new idea of him sneaking around the city via roof tops, in this image looking up town, most notably with the Metropolitan Life building in its art-deco style, beautiful and the closest in the background. One of the few times i used a 6x7 camera. There are other things about this cover we could talk about, but i'll leave that to another outlet, interview or public talk. #theRuler #SlickRick #hiphop #OldSchool #defJam #newyorkcity #adventure #childrensstory #mcRickyD #skyline #inspiration #classicHipHop

BLOG MISSION STATEMENT

Most posts here will be stuff I've
found or friends have sent to me
from around the internet that I
find interesting in one way or
another.

It will be an outlet for my political
views, sense of humor, musical
interests, etc., etc..

Also on occasion stories of my
own from my everyday life,
doing what ever the hell it is i do,
see, or may be working on.

THANK YOU.
