Beauty and the Beast – Chor Boogie and Cope2
BEAUTY AND THE BEAST is opening in LA tonight at Mid-City Arts Gallery. And while everyone acknowledges that Chor Boogie is cute, do we have to break it all down to appearance? Maybe it’s the fact that Disney fair well killed our cognitive association with a relatively harmless children’s tale by saturating Broadway for years with their tripe.
Anyway, it’s a clever packaging of a duo – one old-school Bronx bomber throwie king VS. one expansive spiritualistic color wizard whose forms sprout and undulate across the wall. Put these two together and LET THE HILARITY ENSUE! Heck Cope2 has his own special appeal, right ladies?
Cope2! Bro! Get out of Cali before they make you start doing yoga and sh*t. Look what they did to Chor!
