Mixed Medium on Strathmore - Artist, Nasir Jones holding the one weapon and tool he needed to overcome adversity. It illustrates the power that a person can have with one single voice to make a difference first, in the community then across the world. The backround is a collage depicting the Queensbridge, Ny born rapper into the mature, intelligent poet we see today.

Still challenging concepts of society such as: the race dichotomy and law, women's equality, spirituality, religion, politics, artist's rights, free speech, social status, world history, American history, and African history. With only a microphone at his disposal, he conveys in a raw, poetic and intelligent passage from dark to light. His songs and rhymes maybe the uncut perspective of human life and evolution depicted from the mind of an inquisitive street kid who has now become a man without fear except for God. He may be the essence of where hip-hop's direction can grow and needs to go.
