What you expect? they've both taken their graf to a highly comercial level and highly visible level - molson's figguring to make some $ off it. Granted I own a few Obey shirts as well...but still. It's a product and they're trying (and for the most part succeeding) at selling it to it's "target audience".

More power to em - as an artist myself (digital and traditional) I say congrats on making $ off yer art - shit's hard to do and they're fuckin succeeding at it quite well.

my comments about Molson sponsoring the show
aren't really about a beer company being involved,
but which Molson itself as sponsor. Maybe it's because
I'm a canadian and up here molson's whole campaign
is 'I am Canadian' so it's funny to see them sell to a
market that is certainly a little more specific, and a little
more underground and hip.
