I dont care if they're rich, if they can write and they keep it real then why should wealth matter? Graff isnt "gangs" and "ghettos" like the general public thinks of us.
I'm in a small town with a lot of painters. Most are toys, but there's some good pieces every now and then. Cycle's visited and painted a piece, as has Jive and Tahoe. Exist paints here a lot too.
