COMPOUND EDITION “CHARLIE GRIN” RELEASE PARTY
When I meet taste makers who share the same interest as myself I like to share their talent! I am excited to introduce Alec Tavares. Alec is a freelance marketer and writer who currently works with The Compound. The Compound is a creative agency that helps creative individuals and companies execute their projects. Take a look at what Alec and The Compound allowed me to share with the Luxshop4u community!
Bringing together the art and hip-hop world in co-creative fashion, The Compound has once again, pushed the culture forward!
6/1/2017 Concepts provided the setting for a celebration for the release of Compound x Ron English x Made by Monsters Final Edition Charlie Grin. The Hip Hop culture came out to be a part of history.

With such high demand for this historical piece bridging modern art and Hip Hop, you cannot help but wonder what’s next-but be certain; there will be a next! Stay tuned, The Compound is just getting started!

That Charlie Grin toy is sick! Ron English is a pretty cool artist. I wish I could get my hand on one of those joints but I heard they were limited to 300 pieces.
