It seems the Sosa artist has more to offer the streets than just rap, as Chief Keef inspired artwork lands a place in the Seventh Letter Gallery, Los Angeles.
The hood trapper has always appreciated the essence of art, so when a former rehab associate –Bill Da Butcher began painting portraits of Keef, he was rather impressed with the quality creations.
Up to 30 pieces have now been completed by the High School art teacher, the first being a studio ceiling presentation launched at the Beach Art Show, with the most expensive painting “Double O Sosa” reaching a weighty $10,000.
Although Chief Keef wont be seen with a paintbrush anytime soon, he is happy to add his own stamp to art displays, applying finishing touches to Bill’s creations, who currently works from Chief’s crib in the valley.
Take a look at the costly masterpiece below:
