In this movement, it is the intersection of Art History and hip-hop culture expressed in various ways or ""styles"" Style #1 called ""Art Chops"", is where the works created have references, riffs, and elements of known famous works of art in from the canon of western art or other established art movements in history. Just as producers sample old rock records and create a beat by referencing drums or sounds in a loop, Taurean creates art in that same fashion in visual form. Style #2 is called ""Art-Cing"" where the works are visual interpretations of hip hop songs or inspired by hip hop music.

As it is a trend nowadays that both worlds are more intertwined, Taurean foresaw how intriguing both worlds would collide before this cultural phenomenon took shape. It is Taurean's intention to bridge the gap between art from the institution and the everyday observer of art. Hope you enjoy the soundtrack! Sit back, nod your head, and enjoy the vibes!"
