Slick x Big Sleeps Print Signing ~ Big Dick’s Hardware

10:11 AM PST on January 27, 2016

Big Dick’s Hardware in Compton played host to a Silent Stage Gallery print release/signing event. The artists involved with this print release are LA’s very own Big Sleeps & OG Slick. It all went down at Big Dick’s Hardware, a dedicated graffiti and streetwear shop in South Los Angeles.

This is one of the first events at Big Dick's Hardware since opening its doors in April of 2015. The print release features Slicks infamous three lil piggies in police uniforms with lettering embellishments in the background and foreground of the print by Big Sleeps. Enjoy the photos by LA TACO's senior events photographer Erwin Recinos.

LAPD Officers Watched a Nearly $1 Million Metro Bus Get Lit On Fire. Why Didn’t They Do Something?

On social media, people were quick to criticize fans that participated in the celebrations. But few people questioned why the LAPD, a public agency with an annual budget of over $3 billion, stood around and waited until the bus was on fire before they did something. Or why the city wasn’t better prepared to handle public celebrations considering the same exact thing happened three years ago when the Dodgers won the World Series (again).

A ‘Nightmare on Elm Street’ Star Looks Back On Filming at Evergreen Cemetery in Boyle Heights After 40 Years

“I remember driving early in the morning, in the dark, to get to the cemetery,” says Heather Langenkamp, who played Nancy. “I remember thinking to myself, 'I’ve never been over here, but I’ve heard that there’s really great tacos over here on Soto. Robert Englund was such a foodie. He probably told me that the best food in town was over there.”

The couple credits their bakery’s success to high standards. Whereas many Central American bakeries may lean on more obtainable, cheaper cream cheese for their quesadillas, the family imports the unique type of hard cheese traditionally used in El Salvador.
