An introvert and an extrovert. A personal of internal struggle and another of outward strife. Both worlds collided like night and day, as their personalities are a direct representation of such. Somehow, mentally, they're on the same wavelength. With the likes of Sean's business directive and Gerald's creativity, a t-shirt line blossomed, much like their camaradarie. Best friends, best interests for an industry that's booming. But, as they will tell you, it's more than a business, it's a partnership. That is the way of "Null & Void".
The boys B.E dropped some treats in this little collective called "Dreamscape". Free download is available at http://broknenglsh.bandcamp.com/. Cover art done by none other than G. Arthur. Enjoy the jewels & look out for "The Drawing Board" available Nov 17th. BroknEnglsh & Drawing Board T-Shirts will be available real soon. Support real Hip-Hop 24/7/365 til infinity!
While I have a few moments before I head out this evening, I was able to take a few snaps of the custom design sneakers that my partner G. Arthur a.k.a Lefthand Gilliam Henderson is working on. The finished product will be displayed September 19th at the Seed Gallery in Newark. Null & Void will be participating in Converse For A Cure to raise awareness for sickle cell. I'm looking forward to the event as well to see the finished project. Keep checking the blog for more Null & Void updates & future projects.
Null & Void - Its More Than A Business, Its A Partnership!
One half of the team was able to attend, Mr. Hinds. Unfortunately, I was scheduled to work, since being the scatterbrain that I am, mistook which Saturday the event fell on and didn't request off *le sigh*. Nonetheless, product was like a tyke on a training bike and it was pushed. More on this later... photos and such. Stay tuned! You're now rocking with the best. B-)
In a previous post, I referenced a certain t-shirt... Our first t-shirt! It was a collaborative idea based upon the opus a specific producer/emcee is creating. He presented the notion to me, and i constructed an image based on his input. I was thinking of something graphic, and the film "Sin City" came to mind. But enough yap. Check the link and you'll see the fruition of loved labor.
So, we took a travel/vacation to Maryland, for Brokn.Englsh to perform at a college, and to also happen upon a few sales of the "Push the Button" t-shirt, and after the agony of the heat and distribution, a product of passion was exuded.
Sidebar:I was out of character on this trip, lol. From working my some odd 50 hours at Banana Republic(as a seller), coupled with whatever venues i was performing in, I also had to do the graphical work for the company, which was usually down at the owl hours, as i like to call them. And, with our venture to the University of Maryland(where i also had the chance to go up on stage), I decided subconsciously to let loose before and after said events.End
Lmao. Hilarious outcome! My colleague and I only go head-to-head in such a manner about once or twice a year. It's all love.
I was searching for an old photograph of tailors. However, i wanted a more ethnic motif, to bring it back to the source. And voila! My fellows, it's all about the fit.
Weaved by fate, the destiny of two men are in the hands of a tailor. Little do they know, the yarn is in their hands. Still being constructed, wait in store. Soon, you shall see.
