Re: mark ecko, still a dick riding sucker keeping wiggers dipped since 92. ...and some of us are in it with a political/social message.

Re: mark ecko, still a dick riding sucker keeping wiggers dipped since 92. oh no, i am quite familiar with that campaign. makes me want to vomit just like it does most of you too... we had them too down here in la... thats not exclusively an SF deal. But corporations have been trying to coop the graff thing for as long as i can remember... even HUMMER has jumped on it... i guess i dont see Mark in the same way... I see his use of graffiti more as a marketing strategy than a takeover... im not saying i dig it. no way... gay as hell... but i dont feel manipulated by it. I dont feel like he is trying to pull one over on me... hes just trying to identify his brand with graff...

Re: mark ecko, still a dick riding sucker keeping wiggers dipped since 92. i dunno. im not skurred of a little press... im of the thought id like to see everyone out there writing on sum shit. i give markers away like candy. id like to see people challenge themselves and us and the system... the way i see it, the more suckrs out there writing, the better we look... then again, i get paid by a major corporation dumps mad cash to set up graff and hip-hop shows... so maybe im the wrong one to ask...

Re: mark ecko, still a dick riding sucker keeping wiggers dipped since 92. i hate ecko tho.

Re: mark ecko, still a dick riding sucker keeping wiggers dipped since 92. man i know im going to be flamed for this one, but i gots mad respect for that dude. Show me any other mofo who company makes 600million dollars a year and still has the nutz to put some shit like that out there!? so hes not out hanging from the rails, but he has put cans in the hands of half of the kinds in iowa who would never have thought twice before it... i know mad writers who owe that dude their livelyhood. they couldnt do shit with their lives til he put em to work. yeah...
