New respect for Highland Park’s Wild Style

Complaints about a “gang-looking” mural on the side of the Los Paisanos market in Highland Park prompted the city last month to paint over the artwork. A second attempt to create a less menacing mural has met with a quick response, this time from taggers. The “Wild Style” graffiti, notes Cheryl Johnson on NELA Live, sprayed over part of the new mural spells out the word “RESPECT.”
