too much swagger

No shots, but that Raket is busted, y'all trippin.

Re: Maine Funk Any Lser shit that comes thru "our yard" will be covered. Get a new name. :)

Re: Maine Funk

Re: Maine Funk Word BigDork, I see where you are comin from about Jurne, and Goober, it's a public forum, you have no right telling someone they don't have a place to speak their mind. I'm still sticking with my words though, if I wanted to sell myself short and bite other peoples letters CLEARLY to move on up, then fuck I'd rather be doing my own thing on the ground floor.

Re: Maine Funk Yes, but no one tries pushing boundaries and doing new things with those letters, case in point, Jurne's letters aren't too crazy but he has a ridiculous amount of funk and does things others don't think of, of course I know you know this though....the biggest problem is that some kids, get a pass, and don't have to properly earn their stripes, which should make others want it more, not like any of us should give a fuck anyway, it's all a popularity contest and in Maine all you have to do is have a legal spot and you're supposedly in the state's best crews...The WUT of today doesn't come close to the SFL or WUT of old.

Re: Maine Funk Sure, jealous of not having to properly earn my stripes in a city you no longer have to get up (illegally) in to get respect.

Re: Maine Funk Can control maybe, style and originality, not so much.

Re: Maine Funk At least I could appreciate Esko's originality a year ago..

Re: Maine Funk Damn Herbys come leaps and bounds...

Re: Maine Funk Pretty sure this is the right Turdl

Exactly what I thought when I read that too...

Re: Maine Funk Best parts of this...Sub is an artist, not a writer...And Rich can paint whatever the fuck he wants...

Re: Maine Funk I'm guessing you aren't quite sure on the definition of "work"... Portlands not that big of a city, you shouldn't have to walk more than 5 blocks and still not see a hand or a throw from him....or most others for that matter.

Re: Maine Funk Shows like the ones that went down in Cream or Space were exactly what there needs to be more of. You get to meet the person behind the name and (usually) they're real humble and down to earth. It would be good for younger cats to get introduced to the knowledgable ones, thats how traditions continue....I was in Port the other week, kinda disappointing to not see anything really in the streets other than some chicken scratch and some hands and throws from a couple people (they know who they are). Its sad when you don't see ESKO pieces, Main, Vane, or Ferby or whatever the hell the name is now...on roofs or in heated spots, and only on legal walls (majority of the time)...I can however walk down a block and see an esko hand or a vane hand, however, years later I still see just as many Jurne hands or Turdl hands or Learn or Rich hands, when they're the older heads...The cats nowadays, including myself, don't put enough work in, Period....It's a joke and disgusting to see people who can just bite letters (no shots fired) or complete styles, and do things 5 times faster than it took the older heads to learn on their own...It's all a popularity contest and not who puts work in, given I'd rather see a nice placed fill than 20 ugly hands everywhere, but bombing once every few months is not putting in work! And It shouldn't matter if you're from some other place, so that gives you an exception to the amount of work or the type of work you do....Putting in work, is putting in work...No one earns their stripes these days, they're given to them...Maine's birthed some monsters in graffiti, they all know who they are, but to be honest, give it 10 years and I highly doubt that most of the cats painting in the city now, names will still be relevant...Maybe more shows like the ones in Cream and Space could really help the city...Apologies for such the long rant..My two cents.

Re: Maine Funk Who's clownin? This shit is like high school cliques up on this bitch...i'm sorry but if edje bit fonse...then so did feRBy, it's natural to take inspiration, just give credit where its due man, it's clearly influenced...even got the circle/halo over the Y...

Re: Maine Funk No way! 2! mad uppps, alwayspassinthru has some valid points, Esko would burn me, but I would expect him too, he has a handful of legal spots he can paint over and over again.
