About Akil
riginally from Michigan, with a penchant for vibrant color, slick definition, and compelling design, Akil
(AK) has been creating graffiti since he was old enough to buy paint and appreciate the California sun.
Although preferring the creative freedom of working as an individual, Akil Daniel ventured into starting a
few graffiti groups as a teen. SOA (Sinisters of Art), a group he started in the sixth grade, existed before
he knew what style warz meant. Later, he created BH (Bad Habits), which evolved into KBH (Kan’t Be
Hustled). His last crew, NASA (No Art Survives After), evolved during his senior year while his peers
worried about who they were taking to prom.
Akil is a true, self-taught artist and graphic art designer who develops his craft by challenging himself to
work with various mediums. His unique style has appeared on t-shirts, logos, race cars, freight trains,
album covers, and websites before and since working at Lucas Films. This excellent opportunity helped
to further develop his innate skills and master digital art. Armed with a pencil, ink pens, blunts, and a
black book, Akil breathes life into these creations via programs such as Illustrator, Photoshop, HTML
code, and CSS.
Always pushing boundaries, Akil left Lucas to work with various cliental. He has worked for Clear
Channel, Fast and Furious, and spent six years making porn sites. In addition, his client list includes
Jennifer Lopez (“I Luh Ya Papi”), Shaq, 50 Cent, Nicole "Hoopz" Alexander, Cappadonna, Edley Shine, Ava
DuVernay, Street King Energy Drink, and Drift Monkey, just to name a few. He has also been featured in
a collection of magazines: Marijuana Hillbilly (a few covers and an artist interview), Cloud 9 (artist
interview), Daaam Magazine (official magazine of Comic Con), BBR Magazine (8 issue comic strip), and,
of course, Cannibus Culture. Xbox, Xbox One, PS3, and PS4 games feature his work as well. From Norway
(Drift Monkey and Fantasy Factory), to Sweden (J Spec), to America (as graffiti set designer for an
episode of American Idol), and in the digital world, Akil’s art cannot be contained.
