you're the ones who read the latest mass appeal on the train ride back home from scrap yard, feeling like youre up on real new york graffiti because you know ken cappelos irak collection by heart while you ignore the miles of gems just out your train window. you're the ones who can't wait to get to the the graffiti capital of the world, where you proceed to take pictrues of year,merz,noel, kerse,skrew,rates and post them on a website peretrating the fraud that they rep new york. youre the ones who go the shows, blackbook in hand, praying that some attention craving looser wearing camo and a filas visor will sign your book. your'e the ones who spend hours dissecting every last detail of a loomit piece you found somewhere in brooklyn, feeling like youre on the cutting edge of this magical art form. you're the maggots, the ones who make the job of some blood sucking advertising executive for reebok or pepsi so easy.

you're the ones who don't see us coming.

hes right though

but you dont see me complaining cause i been into this shit long befopre pathetic D&B kids were wearing tribal thanks to fred durst. I love graffitti because of the culture and the lifestyle you have to live to be in it, not because i have nothing better to do and six years into sketching i picked up a can and decided to get the fuck up, no longer sticking tags here and there and crappy marker bombs in bathroom stalls. I will master the contorl of cans and it will be a media i wont let go of even if they put the death penalty on vandalism. FUCK YOU IF YOU AINT TRUE TO THIS AND FUCK YOU IF YOU THINK GRAFF IS TRENDY... ITS A FUCKING LIFESTYLE SO COME CORRECTLY!!!!!!!!

bitterakro onpoint again. important thing to keep in our little heads...the bestest way to peep graffiti is always in person. always. no exceptions. so everyone should take any kind of i-fame, magazine fame, book fame etc with a big ol grain of fucking salt. these other mediums allow us all to be more informed than in the past, but it is no substitute for the real thing. know your city and make it interactive in a way the web never can.

true dat bro

 

ive met some cats from my city one of which is hella down with whats going on and other wise i wouldnt know whot he fuck is who. ANd as for the part as taking graff fame witha grain of salt??? yeah do that cause once youa king only this underground knows you toys or no toys and it wont mean shit.

 

what you have to accpet is that graff is completley pointless and only revolves around mastering this form not gaining respect. Respect is only a side bust of mastering the lifestyle you live as a writer. Keep that in mind kids. Like i said i dont paint or write cause i want to get respect by getting up with shitty throws, i want to master what im doing. That means master being a ninja witha can in my hand and master my control as well as my diversity in style sthat come hard and clean. city life isa bitch but this shit makes it better even if it means true dedication to something that bares no fruit whatsoever in mainstream societies view. Thats what make it culture and thats what keeps it alive.

 

oh and yeha i wrote that
