Darryl McCray, better known by his tagging name “Cornbread,” is a graffiti master from Philadelphia. McCray was born in North Philadelphia in 1953 and raised in Brewerytown, a neighborhood of North Philly. During the late 1960s, he and a group of friends started doing graffiti in Philadelphia. His reason was to get the attention of a girl. The movement spread to New York City right after. This flag is dedicated to the pioneers that led the way of making Street art what it is today.
