Artist History
Shawn Lov landed here in 1977. The location of his arrival is said to be somewhere between the two spread legs of his mother, in a small town on planet Princeton, a subsiderary of the Jersey Galexy in the recently coined, "East Coast," originally mistaken by white folks as India. Raised mostly on food and water, the specimen(Shawn Lov) grew at a considerable rate(averaging six pounds a year)and stopped until recently; our science team has come up with undetermined results as to why. |
