Brooklyn-based graffiti writer and artist Russell Murphy—a.k.a. CASH4— has a history of butting heads with conventions of style and other writers. That always on attitude of not giving a fuck has wound its way into his artwork, including his signage-based exhibition "Mock the Vote” that was described as “...a crescendo of satire, cynicism, and all-out offensiveness.” His public persona also doesn't help in a scene where staying low-key is paramount. He first earned notoriety when a photo of him kissing his girlfriend while being arrested was published on Gothamist in 2012. Even before then, CASH4 built a reputation for thinking outside the norm and getting people's attention. CASH4 became known for painting giant roller letters bastardized by pixelation and cartoonish faces on countless rooftop spots. His throw-ups were amoebus blow-up letters, rather than conventional bubbles; his stickers and tags playfully mixed his name with slogans. He continues to move into different directions with his work but stickers remain part of the process.
