Ghetto Blaster by KaNo
sold by Discordia Culture Shop
Turn up the volume and keep the beat with artist kaNO’s Ghetto Blaster designer toy, which pays tribute to the boombox era of hip hop with style and swagger.
Artist Statement: Ghetto Blaster is a tribute to that golden era of Hip-Hop that we all love so much! Hat to the back and full of swag! Ready to stomp on these streets with the flyest beats!
About the Artist: Born and raised on the streets of New York City, kaNO discovered art at a very early age. The graffiti on the walls and the cartoons on the TV set the tone for a creative childhood.
In true city kid fashion, kaNO graduated from the High School of Art & Design and went on to obtain a BFA in Animation at the School of Visual Arts in 1999. From the silver screen to galleries and even onto toy shelves across the world, kaNO's style is distinctly recognizable as his own. As his creative pursuits expand so does his ever growing list of clients and exhibitions.
In 2010, kaNO moved out to Los Angeles with his family, where he freelances as a character designer for such studios as Warner Bros., Cartoon Network, and Hasbro. When he's not making cartoons, you can find him working on paintings, commissions, and designing product for his brand 'kaNO kid' at his art studio in Burbank, CA.
FAQs & Polices
Why Discordia?
It sounds pretty, and very in-crowd. Which really sums up the items we carry since most of it is cute and you have to be in-the-know when viewing our selection of unique artist produced and manufactured art toys.
And we wanted a name that could cover a wide range of goods where nothing would seem out of place and we could achieve maximum variety of art, books, toys, stickers and more.
Why is your Logo and Apple with a letter 'K' on it?
It is the 'Apple of Discord'. The 'K' is for 'Kalliste' meaning 'For the Most Beautiful'. According to myth, it was used to create confusion and strife.
Discordia Culture Shop is an 'Apple Of Discord' in a crass corporate world by helping Creatives reach the public and denting the corporate bottom line as much as possible.
The only rebellion left in a strip-mall world is starting your own business and supporting independent businesses whenever possible.

How long will it take to receive my order?
Once shipped most domestic orders take anywhere from 2 to 10 business days to arrive depending on the efficiency of your local postal service. International shipping delivery times may vary between 1 and 2 weeks.
