  1. and obviously europe is full of different styles, and I must admit I think England gets it the most, as well as spain in terms of just having fun type of shit, (all the shit I saw in BCN, it looked like they were having a blast) because really what is this shit about, its about having fun, not living up to some idea of what a "real writer" should be, but for the most part, the stuff I see coming out of most places in Europe, FUCKING SUCKS. Its illegible, its some fancy faggy art graffiti, and the letters ARE ALL SOGGY. I'm sorry its true, I do see a lot of beautiful "aerosol art" coming out of all parts of europe, but besides a small portion of stuff from the UK, ESP, and Amsterdam, you all look like you're TRYING TOO HARD. And please don't come back with some thing about you don't understand, its just different, blah, blah blah, because that's just my opinon, I'm only trying to explain what the other meant by "euro style" . What I usually think of as euro style, usually looks like they started piecing before they got a good tag, because their tag is WAAY too wacked out to get up with quickly, or they look like they are biting NYC style from the "golden years" all those b-boy characters and shit, gimme a fucking break, don't get me wrong, I'm not from NYC, so this isnt some old schooler trying to get down on y'all, I think you guys have a much more vibrant scene than we do, but that's becuase everybody loves that shit over there, its like visiting one big hippie commune, imagine trying to get up over here, where a lot of people actually think like Bush does. Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of ILL writers all over Europe, A LOT, but there are a lot more wanna be, aerosol art, never learned to do a throwie, soggy mother fuckers than there are dope writers. If y'all want to know the secret to why americans think/know their shit is better, its because we know this, ITS NOT ART STUPID, you wanna be an artist, go be an artist, you wanna be a writer, then you have to write, ITS ABOUT THE NAME STUPID, all that piecing, throwies, fat caps, trains etc. is just to hype the name. and please please please don't try to talk shit about this post, if you're hurt about it, just remember, its all in your head, this is an opinion, nothing more nothing less, and most importantly , I won't be here to check up on it, because I have better shit to do. Like trying to be an artist.
  2. i think in the end, why doesn't clean train painting flourish in us? well, because its not worth it, and NOTHING runs, NOTHING. There are layups in many cities, and yes you can hit the trains, but, AND HERE'S SOMETHING IMPORTANT: if they don't run, well what is they point, its great for a flick, but its kinda like masturbating, you're not getting up, I feel like there is a very important thing which is being glided over by everyone from across the pond talking about how they really slave to do their trains, their shit runs, and really, there isnt any reason people started hitting trains in the first place, besides that THEY RAN, TO GET UP, TO BOMB, sure eventually people did some fancy pieces, but BOMBING, GETTING UP, that is the real reason the shit was hit, or why would you do this shit in the first place? Sure its fun to spray paint on a train, and its fun to go on a misson all james bond and shit, but that's all periferal (sp?) to the main thing which is to get up, and no there are no backjumps in NYC, and no the shit will not pick up passengers, it won't even open its doors, and yes they will find you because street bombing in the states aint like ANYWHERE IN EUROPE, YOU WILL EVENTUALLY GET PICKED UP, its not a question of how, its a question of when, any up writer in the states in a major city is known by the local vandal squad. Its just not worth it to do trains out here, we don't need to live the nostalgia bad enough, you know why, cause we're over it, sure its fun, but you can do years and years of street shit in NYC and fly under the radar, you do a clean train and you're doing time, its that simple, plus, most writers out here don't give a shit about hip hop. You can do trains here, but its just not worth it.

    graff fonts

    yea they are but I don't think they're being priced to sell to average joe, I'm guessing that If you're in the business of buing fonts, its with a corporate credit card usually.

    yeah, those chrome bags are cool, they have a belt buckle to take off the bag, Joker does yours have that? I just got a Manhatten Portage bag, real meat and potatoes, for those of you who have been doing this awhile: do you think that using shoulder bags has really damaged your back? I mean most of the time I'm not carrying anyhthing heavy, but over time you know... I just switched from using a backpack, so ...please tell me if y'all are experiencing difficulties. Joker- I saw that you and Siloe are having a show, umong other artists, that should be good, I'll be there to check it out soon. Somebody post flicks please, I wanna see you stuff, I wanna see Katsu's stuff, I heard he/she is good.
