I got my mind on my money and money on my mind
YOUNGBLOODZ

And money on my mind.
Actually this is not true.
Money doesn’t make you rich.
I think that experience and knowledge are the true treasure we have to look for during our life.
On this aspect I am already healthy, and I hope to become very rich before I die.
What you buy in this world will stay in it when you die.
The knowledge you acquire, and the experiences you live are in your soul forever.

Try to read my mind you might get wet
SNOOP DOGG

You might get wet.
Where I live in Bali people are quite superstitious. Most Balinese people believe in black magic and supernatural powers.
The black magic priests are called “Dukun” and pretend that they are able to read my thinkings.
I hope they can’t, because mine are sometimes really kinky.

Smile for the camera
SLIM THUG

I got supersize swag.
The funny part of doing an exhibition is the relationship with some of the attendees.
I have to say most young people who come to my art shows don’t buy artworks.
All they want is a cool picture with me.
Especially if the art event takes place in Asia.

You got a hole in you
BEANIE SIGEL

I make you bleed before your periods.
I make you bleed after your periods.
I make you bleed. Period.

GNARLS BARKLEY

I already try to do it every day of my life.
Illustration and art are something I couldn’t leave without…

I got 99 problems
JAY-Z

Actually I got 102 problems.
102 is the number of drawings I did for this series.
The artworks were a series of visual problems for me.
What you can see are the solutions I found…
