In August of 2015, the mural of Price went up as a tribute to him after he passed away at age 43 in his sleep. It was painted by street artist Meres One, who added the Brooklyn Bridge and a golden P ascending to heavens. The mural also has the lyric, “Use your head for more than a hat rack.”
Sean Price left behind his wife and three children. What are your thoughts on this?
