One way to immortalize a legend.

Bearing the Beastie Boys’ track ”Gratitude“, the Entree Lifestyle made their mark at Maywood Brooklyn in honor of MCA, who passed a week ago. Photos of the mural’s making after the jump.

May 7th 2012, the rain let up in Brooklyn for just enough time to let us pay homage to an inspirational artist and person from our hometown. MCA, who sadly passed away on May 4th, 2012, was a founding member of the prodigious Beastie Boys. On a personal note, the Beastie Boys were like older brothers to us. Inspiring us as rappers,stereo type crushers, instrumentalists, culture kings, videographers, editors, business men, show men and as exceptional and special human beings. Thank you for the inspiration, for this and many many more good reasons, in the heart of Midwood Brooklyn, where it all began, we payed tribute to the energy he gave us in the best way we knew how. Thank you for your contributions to music, art, and humanity. Shout outs to Mike-D, King Ad Rock, and all of the family and friends of Adam Yauch. Our condolences during these difficult times. MCA’s essence lives on. -Team Entree Via Rapradar

Banksy takes his latest work to the Turnpike Lane located in London. The stencil appears on Whymark Avenue and depicts of a small child hard at work sewing some Union Jack bunting, with hopes of putting the spotlight on child labor issues that continue to be a problem. What do you think of his most recent work? – via ImFlashy

If you didn’t know, thanks to Hugo of Lex Promotions, Captain Morgan has been one of my drinks of preference. So when I heard that there coming out with a “Captain Morgan Black” I had to definitely check it out. Check out the description and the video after the jump featuring Gal Gadot(what a hottie!).

Crafted from the finest Caribbean Blackstrap rum and select ingredients, including rich clove spice and premium cassia bark, the liquid is finished with double charred blackened oak for a premium, smooth taste. The bold liquid carries the exotic taste of cinnamon and clove, followed by hints of warm spice and vanilla for a smooth finish. Captain Morgan Black Spiced Rum is best enjoyed on the rocks, but is also delicious as the key ingredient in edgy, new twists on classic cocktails, such as Henry Morgan’s Old Fashioned.

The look and feel of the bottle itself is vastly different from the brand’s best-selling Captain Morgan Original Spiced Rum. Intricate details like a wrap-around label created from vintage parchment paper that is adorned with hand-drawn ingredients, as well as copper foil accents and a cork stopper give Captain Morgan Black Spiced Rum an air of masculinity and sophistication. As the liquid leaves the bottle, images of Captain Henry Morgan’s casket and skeleton are revealed inside the bottle on the backside of the label.
