Written by DJ Special Blend from Chicago on June 18, 2009
London’s prestigious Albert Hall has a new graffiti wall that will honor celebrities including Muhammad Ali, Jimi Hendrix and Jay Z.
The Royal Albert Hall is one of the UK’s most treasured and distinctive buildings, recognisable the world over. Since its opening by Queen Victoria in 1871, the world’s leading artists from every kind of performance genre have appeared on its stage. Each year it hosts more than 350 performances including classical concerts, rock and pop, ballet and opera, tennis, award ceremonies, school and community events, charity performances and lavish banquets (Wiki).
The graffiti can be found in the basement of the hall, and is a fantastic modern addition to this arts venue located in the Knightsbridge area of the City of Westminster, London, England. The venue is best known for holding the annual summer classical music concert “Proms” since 1941. MSNBC’s Dara Brown reports:
