Everybody Paints Chris
A couple months ago, CW11/WPIX tapped some graffiti writers to put the final touches on billboards for Everybody Hates Chris, the Chris Rock sitcom based in Bed Stuy, Brooklyn. Though Faust did a fine job painting this pair on Franklin Street and Clifton Street, the TV station wasn’t too stoked about the straight up bombing some other graffiti writers did. If you’ve got photos of those other billboards, let us know.
I believe the show IS actually called Everybody Hates Chris….

By Will on April 26th, 2007 at 1:03 pmI love it when graffiti is appropriated by major corporations as a way of giving their products more street credibility. It’s so punk rock. I’m gonna go out and buy some limited edition Adidas and a fly-ass Mark Ecko jacket to match. Word life, dun – that’s what’s up.
