“As the photographer who documented the birth of Hip Hop, I’ve always been protective of my archive. To see SinXero breathe new life into my images, with the same Bronx grit and passion that shaped us both, is powerful. His work doesn’t just reimagine history — it keeps the culture alive for the next generation.” (Excerpt from press release: https://www.sinxero.com/press-release-quotes-cv )

Top names in Salsa Music which included Moncho Rivera, Gilberto Santa Rosa, Ruben Blades and Gerardo Rivas came out to celebrate percussionist extraordinaire Bobby Allende‘s 60th Birthday in a concert at Lehman Center for the Performing Arts. Bobby has been performing with the greats, since turning 10 years old. Above is a photo I took of him while performing with El Rey del Timbal Tito Puente at Madison Square Garden, NYC.
Great Day at The Graffiti Hall of Fame!
RIP – Tio Eddie Palmieri (The Sun of Latin Music)
