Character 18 | Original handmade drawing for my solo art exhibition I Just Murdered The Alphabet
You love my doggy style
SNOOP DOGG
Why did I chose this punchline?
Ask my girlfriend…
On another hand, “dog” is the worst insult in Indonesia (the country where I am currently based).
But I didn’t really mean it that way.

Turn your tux red
BIG L
Big L rest in peace.
I can even turn you t-shirt green. All you have to do is to follow me and my characters into the jungle.
Welcome to the jungle where the t-shirts are green, the souls gold, and the tuxedos red.

I got more paper than the New York Post
BIG L
And I make paper planes with my newspapers.
Or sometimes I just use the paper for my artworks and draw more illustrations on it.
Actually I do that most of the time.

Make her come true
LIL WAYNE
Right after I fuck her in her dreams.
And I make her dream in the first place.
Wait a second. I think I might be making you dream too.
Ain’t I?

Everyday I’m hustlin
RICK ROSS
Everyday I am baby.
I never stop.
I struggle in order to produce more artworks avery day of my life.
From the moment I wake up until I sleep late at night, I’m hustling hard.
Sometimes my girlfriend complains. Most of the time she likes it.

What starts in clouded minds finishes in the rain
LUPE FIASCO
I have to say that it finishes in a tropical rain.
Especially if you are living in the middle of the jungle like the characters of this art series.
