Kanye West

Everybody knows I love Kanye but I will have to admit that the Taylor Swift thing was painful to watch, but he had a point. That being said I feel as though sometimes kanye generally acts without thinking, and his passion for what he does is usually the catalyst for this. i can definatley relate to him on this, however I'm learning that you cant always let your passion over rule you, and not every battle is one you must fight regardless.

The reactions of everyone lack a lot of understanding and although Kanye isn't a child, as an adult he can and does make mistakes, and i believe as human beings we should be less quick to judge, but more hasty in offering guidance. i believe im not the only one whom believes his actions are rarely malicious, but that is no excuse for the fact he really has a lot of growing to do in terms of learning how to reign in some of his emotions.
I will close by saying regardless of what Mr West does i believe he has the best of intentions, and i still think he is an amazing artist for single handily changing the face of hip-hop.

me

still common


On one of my many walks to college, I snapped this scene. I loved the natural lines created by the pond and the grass. and then the moody sky ahhh bliss. I knew instantly it had to be in black and white, as it creates this bitterly cold, but yet perfectly still atmosphere. Who said Clapham common couldnt look beautiful.

Birth of chinxx




These are stencils I created in college of a illustrative version of myself 'chinxx'. this project was soleley based on the resurrection of album art. I was heavily influenced by kanye West's 'Graduation' album cover done by Takashi Murakami which featured a characterized college drop out bear. (Kanye's trade mark.)

Confident, Ambitious, Responsible, Love


ahhh this truly is the story of my life, i don't know when i became such a procrastinator (lazy) but yarr its not a good look, so hence the purpose and title of this blog, 'critter can' because i actually can i just need 2 keep telling myself that. Success will not be handed to me i do have to work for it.

I want to dedicate this post to Carl Beatson, who i believe achieved so much in such a short space of time, and who never stopped trying to achieve
