Shameless Plugs

Artists are always selling themselves. T-shirts are a dandy way towards easy promotion. Especially if the shirt is catchy! Check out these shirts worn by some of my favorite artists:



Blitz the Ambassador



Rugged N Raw's "I'm Better Than You!" shirt, as worn by Homeboy Sandman (K. Gaines of Sleepwalkas approves.)



Haitian Fresh rocking the Haitian flag as a t-shirt



Two shirts to pay attention to: 1) Top Center: 2 Hungry Bros. t-shirt, created by Fresh Daily (seated)! Limited edition, folks... 2) 8THW1's "Love, Money and Music" tee as worn by Deep of 2 Hungry Bros. (who is one of the characters on the shirt worn by Ciph Diggy of Sleepwalkas...peep the degrees of separation!)



Here's a close-up of the same shirt on Ben Boogz (the other half of 2 Hungry Bros.)



This is another 2 Hungry Bros. shirt, also designed by Fresh Daily and worn by Homeboy Sandman (Conscious is on the left. I didn't like his shirt. LOL). Fresh is a graphic designer as well as a dope MC! Deep owes me one of these...L please.



Here, we have cross-promotion by 8THW1 and Homeboy Sandman. I have both shirts, and it's always a dilemna trying to decide which one to wear to an AOK Collective show. Someone suggested wearing both and taking one off during the show. Not a bad idea.



Another one of Homeboy Sandman's shirts. He has tons! I could do a post just about Sandy's many t-shirts. Maybe I will.



Little Brother t-shirt. What's cool is if you send a pic of you wearing this shirt to them via MySpace, they'll post it. They have a folder of JUST people wearing their shirts. This one made it in!



Daoud of Coup D'Etat rocking one of his signature tees. Coup d'Etat is a clothing company based out of BK. What's really cool is how Daoud and his partner Rasu are very present in the BK arts community. More on Coup d'Etat soon, so stay tuned!
