Character 159-Digger

Everybody knows that feeling when you got some good cuts you can't wait to listen to. She's the digger and you can tell she know. #cratedigging #vinyl #recordcollector #musiclovers #artofrobertliutrujillo #characterdoodle

Character 158 - Hmmph

I was at a water park in Sacramento and saw a dude who inspired this character. He seemed unimpressed.

And when you're doing it right, you know your inner light shines" -Zumbi

So Sad hearing about the passing of Zumbi from Zion-I. Damn. I didn't know him personally, but I'm a fan of his work with Amp Live as the group Zion-I, his solo work as Baba Zumbi, the LPs w/the Grouch. The Bay and the hip hop community lost a huge one. I met this dude 20 years ago through the homie Pandora and his energy was positive and creative whether on stage or in person. I remember seeing them perform at La Peña in Berkeley, Life is Living, so many incredible songs, spirituality, political consciousness, slap, humbleness, positivity, generosity, lyrics, skill, presence,etc. He never stopped making music. Respect and condolences to his family, his fellow group mates, collaborators, and his fans.

May his music and message live on forever. If you're not familiar with his music please take a listen. These are some of my favorite songs: Inner light, Revolution, Silly Puddy, Trigger, On the one, We don't, The Bay, Antenna, Calm down, Don't lose your head, geek to the beat, culture freedom, saving souls, so many songs, albums, features! Thank you. 🙏🏾🌟#ripzumbi #zioni

Old Art 4 - Here's a throwback from this old show

Old Art 4 - Here's a throwback from this old show in Brooklyn (2009). I feel like the treadmill is not at quite as steep an incline, but still there. This is when I was heavy getting into ink.

So much of what we go through in this country as working people is about keeping capitalism going and fighting for the almighty dollar. Sometimes it makes me imagine what would I do if I (we) didn't have to live this way.
