Wet Paint In the Wild: Dimes Square rapper Blaketheman1000 moves to Bushwick, jet skis at Art Basel Miami Beach and performs in Philadelphia
Welcome to Wet Paint in the Wild, an extension of Annie Armstrong gossip column in which she gives art world insiders a disposable camera so they can give us a peek into their crazy corner of the industry.
I am pleased to report that I agree with the headlines regarding Blaketheman1000the Dimes Square rapper, actually being pretty good. About a year ago, I remember coming across his impromptu show at Ming’s Cafe in the dimes, and being so enthralled by the guerrilla concert that I wrote about it in Wet Paint. In the year that followed, Blake rose to fame while remaining as a niche, writing the adjacent art world songs on Dean Kissick etc He’s been making appearances in the column for a while now, so I thought, why not let him take the camera for a spin?
