Celebrating the launch of the brand new Captain Morgan Sliced Apple Spiced Rum, the brand handed the creative reins to a group of some of the country’s most talented street artists with the objective “to celebrate their communities and all the things that make it unique and special in their home cities across the U.S.”

Of course, the Bronx made the cut – specifically E. 175h Street and Webster Avenue in Mount Hope.

That’s where city based artist Mason Eve got to work on the corner wall in the west Bronx.

A second mural was done in Queens at Metropolitan Avenue and 70th Road as well.
