(note: i’m actually braiding RICKY’S hair. when DEE & RICKY arrived on set, RICKY asked me to braid his hair for the photo. when KAI peeped it, he asked that we do it for the actual photo)

(i decided on “NY STATE OF MIND” because it’s so old NEW YORK…gritty, dark and rough around the edges. its the NEW YORK i like to remember).

    WHO are these people and WHO is responsible for this?
    WHAT are they destroying and WHAT is their contribution to this great city? WHERE are they from?
    WHY is NYC a factor when most of these clones are not even from NYC?
    HOW the hell did the person responsible for this, think this was going to be fresh??!
    OOOOH..I get it they’re in a NY state of mind. WAH-WAH
