My family is all East Side Homeboys or Varrio Trece. I was born off Gaston and lived off Gaston. How does running around Deep Ellum and East Dallas inspire your work?Īs far as East Dallas and Deep Ellum goes, I’m an east side baby. That fool is my brother and we’re all hurting down here without him. I spent a lot of time with him around Deep Ellum and the east side, doing lots of partying and wild stuff that I probably shouldn’t mention on record. There was just something about that fool that was calming and made you feel included. He was a pillar in our friend group way before Power Trip was even a thought. I met Riley in the early 2000s when we were both teens. What is your connection with Riley, Deep Ellum, and/or East Dallas?įirst off, rest in fucking power, Riley Gale. Holla at me!Īccording to your Instagram, you worked on a collaborative mural with artist Samo on a mural dedicated to Riley Gale that proudly sits on The Nines building in Deep Ellum. I can roll a nice joint and I make some pretty fire enchiladas verdes.

I’ve sprayed graffiti for the last 15 years, allegedly. I run a clothing brand and I can cut hair. I’m a tattoo apprentice but I also have a day job as a graphic designer. My grandma always says my hands are blessed and I guess she’s right. “Multifaceted” is a word that I think describes me pretty well. I’m a foo’ that’s happy to still be along for the ride.Ĭlearly you are a visual artist, but we know that always comes with a little more to offer. Uh, I’m just little ol’ me – Monica and Carlos’ son, un vato muy sencillo y humilde. Hi! Real quick: Who exactly do you think you are? In a time where authenticity is hard to come by and our time on this planet is so ephemeral, Solomon is determined to continue pushing on to preserve not only the legacies of his friends that have passed but his own as well.Īfter all: Matter cannot be created or destroyed, it just changes. And yet, somehow, he still has more to do.įor the former East Dallas native, multi-hyphenate artist and invaluable family man and friend, when you stay 10 toes down and stand up for what you believe to be true, you can do anything. A post shared by Central Track has done it all, seen it all and even has the tour shirt.
