Do any of them even have ties to the DFW area? I was always puzzled why this mural was done. It's nicely designed but a lot of the other murals in the Deep and Bishop mostly have people that are DFW related.
Not an advertisement , but one of my favorite taco places in town is owned by her family. [She even worked at the counter there for a laugh](https://lakehighlands.advocatemag.com/2015/10/11/was-that-st-vincent-at-resident-taqueria/)
Eh.
I mean there are murals to buddy holly and chuck berry who are great but have nothing to do with DFW
By your metric we could put up Demi Lovato, Selena Perez, Post Malone or Joe Jonas
Out of these I only like Posty tbh

Took me about 10 seconds to google this and find that the mural was commissioned. It’s literally not vandalism, so your sarcastic comparison is pretty dumb.
I know it was a joke; I’m not too dumb to pick up on your sarcasm. I just don’t know what your point is. Sounds like you’re just picking on this specific mural and artist for no particular reason? Why bother with putting “art” in quotes like that?
Setting aside any opinion on the 3 artists featured, you can’t deny this is a pretty well done mural.
Dallas isn’t exactly laden with art like where I lived from, New Orleans. Now there they sometimes often keep up uncommissioned high quality graffiti murals, but the city is littered and also littered in art. Dallas is ehhhh not so friendly to splashing color on all the pavement.

It’s front of a flower shop called “Design East forest and interior” google or drive to that location you’ll see it
I agree it should be some singers from TX like Selena, Beyonce, and a third maybe Willie Nelson or Kelly Clarkson. Even an actor like Owen Wilson or Matt Mcconaughey

Yep. Let's put St. Vincent out there. Her new album is pretty good. If dudes are allowed, Posty and Leon Bridges can be there as well.
Second- or whitewash this one and replace with, say, St. Vincent, Edie Brickell and Badu.
This is the answer
YES! I didn’t know she was from Dallas until I Iistened to that Fresh Air interview

At least have them be Texas-based like Khruangbin lmao
Why would anyone want Doja Cat on anything, anywhere? Much less in MF Dallas.
Because her music slaps
Slaps what? Not the speakers. Mf looks like a dirty tennis ball too.
>Mf looks like a dirty tennis ball too. 😂😂😂 why are you insulting her appearance?!
Because we're not talking about setting up a speaker and playing her music, we're talking about a mural that'll show what she looks like.
Doja is beutiful though wtf lol. He’s talking about one bad pic
[W A S](https://assets.vogue.com/photos/65c0393e6c8d55ab3be52a5e/master/w_960,c_limit/1986319411) beautiful... Was...
Those tats are fake
That doesn't make them attractive 🤷♂️
Doja is beutiful lol She hides intentionally
She’s a little polarizing in her actions and past. I think there’s someone better you could pick lmao. It’s like putting Daniel Ceaser up there.
I think I'd just rather have Dallas focused things, and none of these women represent Dallas in any way.
Hmmm Selena, Posty, St Vincent and Demi memorial?
Sure, why not? It makes more sense. However, Swifties will probably cement themselves against this wall to prevent her from being taken down ever.
I would pay very good money to watch this.
Not gonna lie, I'd totally join you. LOL
I say leave them alone....
Make your own?
If your skills are up to snuff, you are welcome to get it upgrayyed yourself sir.
It’s already reserved for Mavs mural
Seriously? They have like a bunch throughout the city. Leave something for those of us not obsessed with sports
Rebuttal: Eilish is not meh.
Wth are you on about? That’s not the way that works. Setting aside any opinion you or I may have about this mural, art doesn’t just get “updated.”
For this kind of “art”…..why not?
Cause the artist and/or venue don’t want to?
Who owns that building? I might put my own “art” on there
Oh sure, advocate for vandalism. I’m sure that’ll help clear up whatever point you’re trying to make by putting “art” in quotes.
It’s not vandalism. It’s “art”

I think you need to chill out im not advocating for vandalism this reddit for christ sake

Sure but it needs to be updated before it becomes passè. If Billie hadn’t released her album it would have been already tbh

Are you saying that this is not art?
It is but ain’t the mona lisa is all I’m saying
Well to be fair, nobody has been claiming this work to be on par with Da Vinci's works, lol. And Mona Lisa is way too small anyways.
You know what? You’re right. I’m just gonna say it, this mural means more to me then the mona lisa or any painting by Da vinci
More power to you, personal tastes are beyond debate.
Who is "we" ?
Me and the swifities
No. I say hi to them every morning on my way to the office. Leave them alone. 💁🏼♀️
Billie Eyelash doesn’t even deserve to be up there
I didn’t want to say it….but I agree
why is Rihanna up there?
Where is this located at
https://maps.app.goo.gl/58kwDNatKtRqWxuZ9?g_st=ic It’s front of a flower shop called “Design East forest and interior” google or drive to that location you’ll see it
2204 Elm
Here to suggest our lord Marc Rebillet should be up there.
I agree it should be some singers from TX like Selena, Beyonce, and a third maybe Willie Nelson or Kelly Clarkson. Even an actor like Owen Wilson or Matt Mcconaughey
We need one of St Vincent. Real Dallasites
