I want to know where the tweed came from.
Lanky and elegant at almost 6-foot-4, Titus, who turns 34 on Tuesday, seems born into the wrong century.
He views “with romance” the days when bus tokens had holes and he had to call on the land line to reach his friend Philip.
The subjects of his paintings swing rackets in tennis whites, slow dance in full skirts, play the horn in fedoras.
At the same time Titus is very much a product of his own generation, having grown up as the son of Andres “Dres” Vargas Titus, a member of the seminal rap group Black Sheep (of the 1991 hit, “The Choice Is Yours”), and formed his own successful punk band, Cerebral Ballzy, in 2008.
