To introduce readers to some of the Street Artists in the show “Street Art Saved My Life: 39 New York Stories”, BSA asked a number of the artists to take part in “Back Talk” with one of our most trusted and underground and sweet sources for modern art, Juxtapoz.
Today we hear from Rene Gagnon.

“First has to be RUN DMC – with the Krush Groove jam. Eminem, ‘Relapse & Recovery.’ “
