The Downfall of the Shepard Fairy Propaganda Movement

| |

What do you say to a man who's lost his edge and is all out of good ideas? It's hard. Especially if that man used to be your hero for almost a decade of great work and influence. For me, Shepard has lost his inspiration. His clothing line is trash and the posters lately are only caught up by hype from kids thinking they're being rebels of society (just look at the Obama t-shirts rampant in Hot Topic). There's nothing wrong with building trees from roots, but at least create a style that continues to bring change and avoids the norms of mainstream at all costs. Because, I mean, wasn't that what the Obey Giant movement was all about to begin with?
