The 22-year-old 'Kiss Kiss' hitmaker said that the new venture will be called Dum English and will be released through noted sculpture manufacturers Garageworks Industries and vinyl toy production house Made by Monsters, reported Los Angeles Times.

"Hands down right now, my guy is Ron English. Ron has to be the more creative, 'out there' artist I see. His work is so precise but at the same time so unorthodox. I think it's incredible to be able to see him do what he does and be a fan," said Brown.

A limited launch of 1,000 toys will be made for the first run and an exhibition showcasing Brown's street art will open at the Corey Helford Gallery in Culver City.

 

Proceeds of sales from the toys will go to Brown's Symphonic Love foundation, which aims to provide support and funding for arts programs dedicated to women and the artistic development of children.
