Click here to check out the fantastic project that Kennan and Mike worked on for Raekwon and Ghostface Killah’s canceled R.A.G.U. tour. Even though the tour was canceled, those concepts and their time working together would lay the foundation for so much of Kennan’s future work. Mike, who was born and raised in Staten Island, would later go on to work on the poster for the documentary shown in the picture above. The poster was actually made from his own personal belongings too. Click here to check out the Emmy-Award-winning Wu-Tang documentary Of Mics and Men if have not done so already.
