R.I.P. Tracy Underwood from Phunky Phat Graph-X

[C-4]

Saw this on E-40's Facebook Page. Not sure of any details of his passing, but this is more than an R.I.P. Thread.

Phunky Phat Graph-X has been such a trendsetter in the music industry, they deserve being mentioned and praised for helping to pave the road that they did. They laid the foundation for most of the artwork you see today, as far as the outlandish, flashy, animated, colorful Album Covers and Artwork. Then came Pen & Pixel and so many others, then later down the line Photo Doctors & countless others.

Phunky Phat was my inspiration for becoming a graphic designer. So here's to them.

Feel free to post up some of your favorite Phunky Phat artwork, and I'll post some too.
