Shepard Fairey and the OBEY family were recently back in NYC to paint a 6 story Beastie Boys Mural celebrating 50 years of hip-hop!  Shepard Fairey in conjunction with LISAProjectNYC, Hard Rock Hotel NYC, & Hip-Hop 50 chose this iconic photograph of the Beastie Boys by Glen E. Friedman to tower over Alphabet City and the Lower East Side of Manhattan, NYC to be a constant reminder of 50 years of Hip-Hop, and how it has impacted NYC and its culture. Head over to 14th St. & Avenue A in Manhattan, NYC to see it for yourself. But for now  check out some behind the scenes photos of the OBEY GIANT crew completing this monster task in just 4 days!
