Icky’s Ego T-Shirts

EGO MANIAC OF THE WEEK:

Peter Monro

Peter is a filmlover and filmmaker originally

from the suburbs of Detroit, Michigan. 

Now in LA a total of 7+ years, Mr. Monro has

started his own film production company,

Film Habit, Inc.  His first feature,

Days Together, which he wrote, directed,

produced, and edited, is currently being

finished in post-production and will be

submitted to film festivals the world round!

Not only does he possess incredible talent

as a film director, but he has also played his first live musical performance with yours truly, Icky’s Ego.  It was really out of sheer determination that he accomplished this. 

Most people would say “Oh, no!  I can’t perform in front of an actual live audience!”  But Peter grabbed the horns by the bull and did it.  It was one of the most satisfying experiences of his life and he will never forget the night that he became a rockstar.  He thanks Icky’s Ego for that.  

Now, he wants to digress and talk about religion.  While Mr. Monro respects religion deeply, he finds himself aligned with Mr. Marx in that he believes religion is the opiate of the masses. 

He would like to quote a GZA track in saying that

“Religion has done nothing but divide.”  Damn right!

He remembers the first day he approached

his father and asked “Dad, do you believe in God?” 

“No,” his father replied, “there’s no proof.” 

“Well, I don’t have any proof China exists,”

Peter replied. 

“Yeah, but that’s different. People come back

from China,” his father retorted…

Peter is now an Agnostic and maintains a great deal

of pride in his ignorance towards all things metaphysical.  

Moving on to Hip-Hop. Mr. Monro also loves Hip-Hop

and has been known to freestyle when having smoked

enough weed and/or drank enough whiskey.  The great

misconception that people have about hip-hop is that

it’s all about gangtas, bitches, hoes, killing, shiny

rims, ice, and the like.  But if you look up some of

the deeper, more poetic of Hip-Hop artists

(ie Mr. Lif, Mestizo, Qwel, Aesop Rock) you’ll find

that some of these “rappers” are true poets of the

modern day.
