yeah they say that but then don't have the balls to innovate, or put their neck on the line with some far out shit... at least a lot of 'em don't in my experience...

the only one that matters is the one who did top-to-bottom wholecars on the NY subway and put in 40 years of work with a handstyle that became a graffiti icon. anyway if it wasn't for the internet no one would know about the other guy, whereas 'The Voice Of The Ghetto' is legendary where it counts, in the streets...

like tattoos, beards, blue collar beer, freight hopping, polaroid photos and a lot of other stuff, some facets of graffiti got sucked into that postmodern/ironic/retro/kitsch/superficial/suburban/hipster mentality and some of what you see now is just what got dumped out the other end. (i hate this).
also couldn't we have been having this debate 25 years ago when Ghost and Reas started getting infamous? from what i've heard they were sort of the Neckfaces of their day. my point is that as long as you have an overly serious or conservative element you will always have people coming up with ways to subvert it. as soon as you say "Graffiti is this." someone else will respond "No it's not.". (i'm okay with this).

so does that mean that practically everything ever created is also 'hip hop'? ;)
i dunno, some academic motherfucker posited the theory that the human brain is our equivalent of a peacock's tail, in other words on some level we just create art, music, literature etc in order to get laid. sounds like that 'evolutionary psychology' shit to me, i don't really go in for theories and whatnot, or thinking like a critic, but it's fun to think about once in a while.
and for what it's worth i thought that James Brown was the most sampled artist of all time...

ya those are obvious tributes not bites..not sure why you keep putting them in the wrong thread..
probably cos they're gay, kitsch, ironic, dumb... or maybe i don't get the joke.
the Sento one is particularly distasteful as it is not out of the question that he could find that train and diss it himself, if he felt like it. a 'tribute' to an active writer? what the fuck...

yea GOREY did it first and others just ran with it. at this point its moot... its just a technique but for sure there is more going on with certain writers then just using a technique is what people are trying to say...
i'm pretty sure Os Gemeos did it before Gorey. although the spit cap effect can be similar to a stencil cap so who really knows...

36 female Netherlands fans thrown out of stadium & accused of ambush marketing
According to reports in South Africa, 36 female Dutch fans were ejected from the Netherlands-Denmark World Cup 2010 match at Soccer City on Monday and questioned by FIFA regarding alleged ‘ambush marketing’.South African newspaper The Star claimed that the women were all dressed in orange mini-dresses that were part of a Bavaria beer promotion campaign back in the Netherlands.
FIFA doesn’t allow ambush marketing, a term that describes the promotional efforts of a company at an event at which it is not an official sponsor.
Pics or it didn't happen:
and here they are being escorted from the stadium by a FIFA official:

for what it's worth i read that in SA Premier League games the horns are usually blown in unison at certain crucial moments to reflect the ebb and flow of play, but apparently there's a lot of n00bs at the World Cup blowing them indiscriminately instead...
how much of that is true i don't know. either way i bet the discriminating horn players don't exactly sound like Chet Baker. fuck it, let 'em blow their vuvuzelas.
