back in May, my main man (and ghostWerks bredren) Khalid, aka bigSteelo was at my crib, and i said "When you get home, pick up all the drawings you got layin' around on the floor, scan them joints and make a book called Off The Floor..."
apparently, a light went off! because the next day, khalid had an album on his mySpace with that name, which he told me later that day would IN FACT be the name of his new book! family! don't let the fact the Khalid and i go back like Sara Palin and Klan rallies dissuade you from copping this joint! i kid you not, Khalid has more dope artwork laying around on the f@#&in' floor than most artists generate in a year with an endless supply of redbulls!
live art piece from breast cancer benefit show... nice, ain't it?anyways, Off The Floor dropped last august, but i was so busy getting ready for my daughter to come, i forgot to tell you! anyways, not to overstate it, but it's one of the best sketchbooks i've ever seen! it's over 100 pages of comics, illustrations and head-scratching sketches in a wrap-around cover, sealed with a well-placed punch in the eye! if you have a collection of art books (or you wanna start one!) you NEED this joint in your life cousin! you can click any pic in this post to go buy that joint at Lulu.com for 30 bucks!
COP IT!
holla!
