R.I.P Leon Botha
Shocking news. South African Hip hop legend and painter; Leon Botha, has died. I have only gotton word of it now but apparently he passed away on Sunday at the age of 26, due to complications of his disease; Progeria. He is alleged to be have been the longest living example of a person with this condition, a disease that rapidly ages the human body.
I have only really scratched the surface of this beautiful human beings work and from what I have seen so far, he had some mad shit going down. Feeding a passion for martial arts, spirituality and philosophy Leon used the platforms of Hip hop and oil-painting to deliver his unique cosmic message. I am deeply saddened that I never got a chance to meet this extraordinary cat. Anyway I hope to blog some of this guys work and create more of an awareness around this very special individual, who probably mostly only associated with Die Antwoord's Ninja Video. For now you can check out his myspace and official website. Mad love.
