All cool topics about philly style. The 80's tags were the best from style, originality and flow stand point. Writers today model after the wickets of that era. The difference is that in the 80's it was flowing and original. As far as piecing I put the era between 1985 thru 1995 as philly's best years. The originality and bombing during that period was sick. There are some cool stuff out there now but it's all derived from the earlier years with their spin on it, which is cool and keeps it alive...

 

some classics - might have been posted before - but rock

damn esteme again

 

i agree with the comment about constantly rehashing the past...i remember in 95 the guys i looked up to like nope meak dasar, etc....old heads always made all kinds of ill comments about them not being down.....or like enems speech in the otg video where makes of fun all the white kids driving "their moms prelude".etc.etc....the older dudes are always hating on the current generation...but now in 2005 people post old nope and dasar pieces like they are classics....so in 2015 the people doing good stuff now will also stand the test of time and stand out. like crack said, just do your thing by painting and adding another flick to the pile of flicks..and the next gen of kids will tell the tales of who was an influence and who wasnt.....theres really no point arguing about it now....even agreed upon legends like kair or kadism, when they were smashing they had their share of haters im sure...look at people still trying to say kair used stencils! its like ed koch said in style wars..."time...will tell"

 

my 2cents on whos really doing it for philly now is def curve and esteme and mad and kid.....look at those flicks of that curve esteme muppets wall man...thats like as original and as banging and as "philly" as any of those legendary sat and praez and enem and den and braze flicks....and to Kare AFUs comments...of course everything is going to be somewhat derivative of what comes before it, but at least those two are one example who are doing original letterform that is fresh and not very derivative (at least in my eyes)

yo the buff is slower then its been is a long ass time. there is some big black smack you in the face tags in "next day buff" areas that been living for going on 3 weeks. im talking down town center city on number streets...none of those ducky allys. i also found some Razz law1 tags from '95 that some how got around the buff in center city. i was gonna rock a fill-in but didnt want those to get buffed b4 i can filck them. yo sf, this is it...the troops gonna be ready. if the buff is slow now it might as well be concidered on vacation when the winter comes thru...the city is gonna be black white and chrome by christmas...and what ever else we use.

oh man

 

I love to read some of the people on the ignorant right talking about anything and it makes me shake my head aboud how sad this world can be at times. Also, the left is often just embarassing. Particularly when it is the Democratic party -- albeit a few of them. I don't know if I'd really call them left of center though. It's just sad and embarassing and people don't really think before they talk. It's embarassed. and HORNY! just playing.

Cheer...

 

I agree with your statement completely.

 

Most old heads that had skill never hated the newer generation only when their styles were copped. Guys like Curve and esteme are the future of philly graff. Esteme esp. has his own flair and you know when it's his style. I actually like the cat Adapt also, Saw some cool pieces by him on the train lines. A great piecer or tagger is all from flow that is developed year after year. Times are different and I always believe you look into the past to progress into the future. I would love to see more writers today be bold and brave with their styles, stretch the style and bombing. Maybe to being an oldhead, being around about 20 or more philly writers that all had original piecing styles that were so badass, I am biased, but I go what I see now out there. With maybe 3-5 writers with really good style. Aerosol still flows through my veins, and get juiced when I see new tags and pieces around town.

 

Peace.................
