This series explores the idolization of artists as individuals of divinity and praise. Each Hip Hop musician is meticulously paired with a Hindu deity that reflects their character. In this case, Tupac: Brahma, Biggie: Buddha, Lauryn Hill: Saraswati, Jay-Z: Vishnu, and Ol' Dirty Bastard: Shiva. Aspects of their true nature or musical affiliation are subtly noted through objects and expressions.
