This week The Panel Awards an unknown graphic designer. The murdering, 40-sippin, drug dealing, gang banging - and in all probability – dead genius who invented the BLOOD hand sign.
The knotted up fingers that let any and all who care to glance your way that you are a member of the notorious Bloods and you wear red and kill people who wear blue.
This piece of graphic design is, if not genius, then ingenious. It took someone to think like they were looking in a mirror and say to themselves, “Now hold on… if I just twist my fingers…. And then I put my other one here…. And then bend this one here… Damn!” The equivalent to rubbing your belly and patting your head and saying the alphabet backwards.
We’d love to give the award to the creator but like I said earlier he’s probably dead and I have the same rules with neighborhoods that I do with nightclubs. If I can’t wear blue jeans I’m not interested in going.
Tu Pac R.I.P
