The following pictures highlight some of the prolific work of the legendary Cope2 in Queens. Now that he’s older he is concentrating his work on mostly legal walls. I don’t look down on him for not sticking to street bombing which is how he made a name for himself but that’s what happens when you get older. Plus he has a few kids now and I wouldn’t see him being too happy going to jail. Anyway, there’s not much more that I can say about this living legend besides that he influenced a lot of kids and continues to have an impact in the graff community with his video, Cope 2 “Kings Destroy”. Check out some of the pieces I found while exploring Long Island City:
