Wallpaper. brought the funky fresh West Coast vibe to Brooklyn Bowl Sunday night

Wallpaper., an Oakland, California duo, put on a funky/freaky/smooth/krump/fun show for Nicky Digital's "The Deep End" party series, the Official Pool Parties After Parties, at Brooklyn Bowl Sunday night. If you don't know these guys by now, check out their video for "T-Rex"—this shit blew us out of our chairs a few months ago and we can't get enough. One mention of the song and it's in our heads for weeks. "I go BIG on the weeeekeeend, I go T-REX." Pure genius. Their set did not disappoint: they performed their entire album "Doo Doo Face" [cop it here] and it was a freaky dance get down. Ricky laid the smooth moves on us while Arjun kept the beat in his pocket. Check out this live footage to get a taste, and don't miss them next time they're in town! They're on tour now so catch em if you can! Tonight's stop: DC.

The Radiant Child: A brilliant film of a brilliant man

The new Jean-Michel Basquiat documentary is a must-see. It tells the story of his art career—from being a truly inspired teen to becoming a hugely famous artist in less than 10 years and then leaving this world at the age of 27. He left over one thousand paintings and one thousand drawings for us to explore, decode and feel for years to come. An incredible body of work that analyzed, synthesized, prophetized and expressed our human culture and history, frame after frame. He was a truly pure being, operating from his soul and letting his knowledge flow back out through him in automatically.

The film is playing now at Film Forum on Houston between 6th & 7th Aves. You should probably also pre-order the DVD now. It's a classic.
