WTUL DJ and photographer Johnny Bapo (aka Noah K) let me sneak a peek at some of the photos he's been developing recently of hip hop heads and the dudes that trim them. Tentatively titled "The Hip-hoppers and Barbers Series" JB has already shown some of these shots, clandestinely curating his own display at a gallery on Julia during Art for Arts Sake last month. He was found out and received warmly by the art director who let him keep his work up. (As of press time, he has yet to go back to collect them).
Here are a few of the shots and a collaborative collage of test strips done with the publishers of the Papr*Papr.

That third picture portrait is of local DJ Raj Smoove,a beat maker for Lil Wayne in Tha Carter 1 days. Turns out he doesn't look totally unlike Johnny Bapo I think
Oh and the first too, Bapo tells me. 'Oooh Boy'
