While the world awaits the official video for “Ni**as in Paris” from “The Throne,” digital culture magazine STARK released their visuals for the popular track, or what they have coined a “videojacking.” The clip follows a group of graffiti artists as they make their way through the streets and metro of Paris, tagging the city with key lyrics from the song. Above all, the video is a creative and well made interpretation, and should be enough to hold us over till the official visual treatment is released shortly.

1st To Do It: Larry Lovebone
“1st To Do It” chronicles some of the most innovative, daring and unknown maverick’s in the fields of art, music, sports and fashion. Through arduous research, spanning the stacks at toppled libraries to unearthed microfilm, these pioneers were the first people to do things that seem quite commonplace in today’s society. It’s often disputed in the world of graffiti just who was the first writer to put their moniker up illegally. The vanguard of American graffiti artists, including REVOK, RIME and SABER contribute to the legend of Larry Lovebone, who many art historians have disregarded and omitted from the chronicles of style-writing due to his other cultural contributions during the sexual revolution in the 1960s. In his own words, Mr. Lovebone tells the tale of his infamous tag and its origins in his ability to bed copious amounts of women from every race, culture, creed and religion. “1st To Do It” is an ongoing series from production house Bankshot composed of short documentaries that sheds a much needed light on the people who made their mark first.
