  • A 9-minute cosmic journey that explores the legendary artist, graffiti writer, hip-hop pioneer, myth-maker, and New York cult icon, RAMMELLZEE.
    A Red Bull Arts New York film, “RAMMELLZEE: It’s Not Who But What” was written and directed by Oscar Boyson and produced by Elara Pictures. The film was created in collaboration with the Red Bull Arts New York curatorial team behind the exhibition RAMMELLZEE: Racing for Thunder, the largest survey to date of one of the most influential yet overlooked artists of the 20th century.

    I've lived in NYC for more than 45 yrs and I've seen A LOT of fantastic art shows, but this one was a total MIND-BLOWING experience!! Here I am in 2021 STILL talking about it, several years after the show!!

      I wish I had a time machine cuz I'd go to 1970-1980s NYC!!! I'm blessed that I was born in 1980 and lived during the 1990s Hip-Hop golden age and buying every Wu album on release day. But 1980s NYC graffiti was an awesome time!!! I watched Style Wars religiously til.this day. That documentary changed my life. I was born and raised in Nor Cali Bay Area but I've always loved NYC hip-hop culture!!! Don't get me wrong SF and Oakland are awesome cities and I love Bay Hip-hop, Hiero all day. But NYC style just spoke to me

    Rammellzee did things that definitely fit the definition of alchemy. It’s because he took thrown away items and turned them into artworks or implements that he then sold. That completely fits the definition of alchemy. This is a pretty cool mini lecture about this equation that I’ve always been fond of. THANKS FOR SHARING!!

      He slept with art dealers. Period. Basquiat was a no talent, psuedo-intellectual sociopath. You can see he clearly stole many of his concepts of salvaging garbage and the cryptic language on canvas from Rammellzee. Except it was all a pretentious, hollow rip off.
