The Art of Chuck D


Chuck D joins the ever-growing list of emcees to collaborate with artists, as the Public Enemy front man launches his first-ever art collection titled "By the Time I Get to Arizona."
Debuting in March, so head to the link below and order yours now ?. The prints find Chuck D and collaborator Ravi Dosage envisioning what has been described as "a future Arizona border created in a sophisticated collage utilizing a cache of recognizable figures (created over the last 100 years) to show how our 'nation of immigrants' has been lost to legislation." The collection was inspired by Arizona's stringent immigration policies and takes its title from Public Enemy's 1991 song of the same name.

Chuck and Dosage will release the series of 300 prints on March 4, with over 30 figures, lyrics and messages hidden throughout the piece. Each print will also feature the rapper's handprint plastered on the print in paint and a placard of authenticity signed by Chuck D himself.
