ruse Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Being in art school doesn't mean you're going to be a good artist, graff or otherwise. It doesn't mean you won't be either, though. Skill really comes on an individual basis. One thing that art school can do for you though, is to teach you tons of things about drawing, painting, and colors which are all very applicable to graff, and could make you a hell of a lot better. Plus there's shitloads of art school students who don't have rich parents paying their tuition. They do work study, or take out loans which they have to spend the next 6 or 8 years of their life paying off. Not taking a side here, just saying: Don't diss a writer just because he goes to art school. There are plenty of cocky little art bitches just riding the trend, but there are some genuine talents who put in tons of work as well. Nothing is just black and white like that. Anyway, thats my two cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mellow Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 its definetally better of if your a writer with money, you can pay for your paint and not risk getting arrested for shoplifting and then if you ever get caught painting you hire the most expencive lawyer in your city to represent you, not some shitty lawyer that the city assigns to you.

Blaise Pascal Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 when scientists discover a meaningful correlation between one's wealth and the quality of ones graffiti then i will give a shit but until then its just peoples peice of shit opinions and we all know the richest wanna-bes put on a really good front of how hard and grimey they are but when shit gets real they scamper off back to their pamper lives and poor kids try to emulate the rich in fashion, and activities at the end it means nothing hense this thread is stupid, just people arguing in a circle frate raper said it best on page 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSoupForYou. Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Who the fuck cares about a writer that you dont know's person life at all? If they crush/are good, then give them the respect they diserve. if a writer crushes, i could care less if theyre a rich white republican golfer, or a mainey ass hood kid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the flesh sword cometh Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 i didn't go through the whole thread because it didn't seem that worth it... but my two cents does. forgive me if this has been stated already... kids of privilege have a pretty good upper hand in any hobby/activity they seriously pursue. they have trust funds, mommy and daddy bought their cars, pay for half or all of their apartment, toss them a couple hundred a week or so while they work at some boutique trendy retail store (just for fun) till college is finished, they often go on vacations, they have cable tv and round the clock internet access to keep up with growing trends, shit... these kids know whats up. they get to buy all the hot colors and foreign paints, all the tips and gadgets and gizmo's. they get good/known/up/famous because they really don't have much else to do or worry about. and who's the law anyway? the parents know their kid is a liability. a kickass lawyer ain't nothin but a phone call away. but whatever, if i grew up in that situation... why the fuck not? moms and pops are fucking retarded people with the green i need to be whatever the fuck i want. i wanna be a famous graffiti writer... skateboarder... artist... whatever - cha-ching. thats why some of the best talent in most major cities is a nobody in other places because: dude came from the gutter, got hip to another avenue away from the gritty shit his habitat was throwing at him, paid serious dues and made a name... but fell off because shorty got knocked up, fool got tired of being broke and hungry and dedicated himself to a trade, or he got popped serving an undercover some yak, etc. etc. real life shit got in the way. shit happens. there are the few exceptions who managed to get themselves the fuck out of their situations and make it from the ground up, and i tip the hat to those fine people... but yeah... rich kids get what they want, the poor get what they take... take that clout, take that shine, take that money. whatevs. thats the way the cookie crumbles. go change the world or something.

Dr_Placebo Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 I'm no "rich kid", but writing is rebellion, art, expression, creation, destruction... Every man (or woman ;) ) has a right to these things, no? I admit the middle classes get given everything, and graffiti is mainly a working class artform, but respect to anyone who has a positive and humble attitude to writing, be they rich, poor, male, female, young, old, rich poor, and race or religion. We are all the same in the end. DRP - Phear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SneakV2.0 Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 rich kids can buy 200 cans of MTN...and never work for the cash...i bust my ass for that cash.. seriously, how can you make broad assumptions like that? do you think all rich parents just hand out hundreds and hundreds of dollars or pounds or euros like that? sure, there are some that do BUT the majority dont. my parents bought me up well, they taught me to work for what i want. the amount fo money they have doesnt come into it in the slightest.
