Scott Campbell “Things Get Better” @ OHWOW Preview
Tattooist and artist Scott Campbell’s latest solo show “Things Get Better” is set to open at the OHWOW Gallery in Los Angeles. Campbell’s latest ink paintings focus on “Frankenguns,” the handmade tattoo guns built by prison inmates. The culmination of two years of research involving trips inside Mexican prisons to learn about these machines, Campbell’s latest project is a true labor of love for the artist. “Things Get Better” will be on show at OHWOW from May 23 to June 22.

Travi$ Scott – Owl Pharaoh (Mixtape)
After much delay due to sample clearance issues, the highly anticipated Owl Pharaoh is finally released in full. Over 13-tracks, the likes of T.I., 2 Chainz, Bon Iver, Toro y Moi, A$AP Ferg, James Fauntleroy and Theophilus London jump on the eclectic mixtape, showing Travi$ Scott’s recognizable trap-infused approach to hip-hop alongside an acute ear for indie and even dance music elements. “Upper Echelon” has already surfaced as a hit single in the blogosphere, while “Blocka La Flame” nods at his own version of Pusha T’s “Blocka,” before delving into more experimental territory with ”Chaz Interlude” and falling back on an introvert tip with “Naked.” The diverse assortment of hits further accredits Travi$’s recent feature in XXL‘s 2013 Freshmen class, putting the G.O.O.D Music affiliate firmly on the map as one of hip-hop’s most promising young recruits.
