"Yo Raven - What happened to the memorial you were supposed to have for Oil?
If anyone has a large collection of Oil's work it's you. He had been working for you for years - with not a penny to show for it, the least you can do is show his work to the world instead of hoarding it and thinking about how you can make more money with it. (I don't know if that's your intention, but it seems that way to me.)
12ozprophet wouldn't be what it is without Oil's hand styles. The Vapors, 3 versions of the AKA book, the AKA shoes (which were his prized possession), and I'm sure the list goes on.. Yeah, he got a flight to NY and a flight to Germany.. But, you practically built an empire on this guy's talent during times when he was broker than broke. I think you need to step up and do more to commemorate his presence on earth.
By the way - I think it says a lot that you manage to let them show an installation of Bernie's work and a page of his handstyles for your interview about Nike Dunks, but there's no mention of Bernie's name or the fact that he did all the graffiti for your brand - or at least credit for the artwork used for the article: http://www.12ozprophet.com/images/up...nicles_AKA.jpg
I'm not hating, I'm just saying what's been on a lot of people's minds for a while. Please do something phenomenal for Bernie and prove me wrong."
Kinda makes u go hmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
