Every wonder what the hell Jay-Z was talking about?.. Well he was referencing Jean-Michel Basquiat. Born December 22, 1960 in Brooklyn, New York. He gained popularity, first as a graffiti artist in New York City, and then as a successful 1980s-era Neo-expressionist artist. Basquiat's paintings continue to influence modern day artists and command high prices. His rise from the streets to stardom is a reason why I really digg his art aside from the fact they are just beautiful. HE is the inspiration for some of the Fall Collection. Keep a look out for that. Further readingCLICK HERE

I was VERY excited when I saw this!... But what she's talking about is true. It's crazy how when you make you "find" family you havent seen ever once you make it. (Not that "i've" gotten to that point yet)
