Today marks the 15-year anniversary of Christopher Wallace’s (a.k.a. Notorious B.I.G.) death. I remember breaking down and sobbing at the news…R.I.P. Big Poppa. Image by my favorite designer/illustrator Max Vogel (Razuano).
Biggie inspired drawings from illustrator/designer Jay Roeder. He updates his site daily with new work. That’s serious dedication. Check out more pieces here. Also, the winner of the Cheer Strange Talk “Climbing Walls” iPod Nano giveaway is Iris Eben. Iris you’ll be receiving an email from me shortly. Congrats! Have a great weekend everyone!

Fantastic illustrations by Ken Taylor. The detail in these are off the chain. More of his work including a really great poster of Bob Dylan can be found here.
