HUCK columnist: King Adz

King Adz

"King Adz spends his time mooching about the streets of the world looking for shit he likes to write home about. Stuff like: talent, food, art and stories. Especially stories; especially food. Well, all the stuff mentioned really, as long as he can tell it in his own special way. Adz used to be an advertising art director before he somehow became a commercials and music video director. He didn't really like this and so began making documentaries about the shit mentioned above. Then he got some heat after Banksy kindly gave him a quote to use on the DVD of his first real film, and this enabled him to live his dream and write books full-time. As all along he just wanted to be a writer. Funny but true, a bit like his work..."
