Nice useless 1st post. Amend is on Oakland king status so fuck your opinion, it doesn't mean shit. A couple cats from out of town have definitely done their work and gone all city, most avoid certain hoods though. I'll throw out Nesta as an example of a non local going all city on king status, but there's only two local writers that I along with a lot of Oakland/SF OGs will say is on king status, and Amend is the better painter than ceaver. Both are Oakland kings. if you disagree then you're a blind fool unaware of the strong culture of hardcore oakland writers who've been smashing their city for over a decade. I bet you don't even know any of the 'kings' in TDK who you speak of.. I can guarantee it, because all the homies in TDK give Amend the crown. I think their opinion of the king speaks volume to some nameless chump with 1 post on 120z. (Not that post count on a website means anything. don't get it twisted).
