Ten years ago exactly today I landed at JFK airport as a twenty something rookie graphic designer. I was supposed to be there for 3 month which quickly turned to 6,12 and on and on. Here we are! Ten years after my first walk on the Brooklyn bridge blasting Gang star Mass Appeal in my portable CD player. Yep! Technology has changed since… I just want to give mad props to all the New York people who gave me all the inspiration and energy needed to be where I am at today. Thanks to my wife and kids, the Alife crew (you were the first ever!), Elf (R.I.P), KR, Snoty, Staple, Base Crew, Marc, Marci, Raven, Randy Moore, Chris Isenberg, Raza Uno, Funder, PK, Justin, Steve, Tester, Dust, Left, Mare, Keo, Reas, Kaws, Espo, Skuf, Zuek, Zoo Crew, 5boro crew, Waris, Spike Lee, Eric Elms and to all the other friend I forgot… I love New York more than ever!

I was listening to the BBC when Massive Attack was talking about their up coming album “Splitting the Atom”. The album is due next year. From what I found leaked on the web, this album is going to be another classic. Guest includes TV on the radio’s Tunde Adebimpe, Damon Albarn from Blur/Gorillaz, Martina Topley-Bird, Liz Fraser and long time collaborator Horace Andy. Massive attack is in my top 5 group ever. They have a unique sounds since day one and always took care of their visuals and video in an impeccable way. The new art is done by massive attack’s singer producer 3D Del Naja who was one of the only UK artist featured in the classic “Spray Can Art” book.
Can’t wait to do a late night in the studio with this album blasting.
