Amuser Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 page - i totally understand and agree. the one regret i have about this whole thing is that fools have to pay a grip for it. believe me, if i had a better way to do it that would have made it more affordable for everyone (including me, i had to order about 12 copies just through proofreading and whatnot) then we wouldnt even be having this discussion. However, the few publishers i stepped to in the beginning were not into it. didnt think there was enough of what people wanted to see. one well known publisher even told me it was too much like subway art. from a business standpoint, i get that and understand. if i was a publisher investing 10-15k into a book, i need to be convinced i could move ALL of them and make a profit - and the ones i approached were not convinced. maybe my pitch wasnt good enough, maybe i wasnt persistent enough, maybe i just didnt know the right people. whatever the case, i did know is there were ppl out there who DID want to see and learn about this shit. so it was with that alone that i decided to self publish with blurb. if i had a publishing deal tho, i could have made a book 3X the size - and it would cost less. the book in that photo is a very early version too btw. rest assured, there are still lots of ppl out there with extensive collections and knowledge (including yourself). hopefully, publishers will see what i have done and reconsider the idea that ALL graff books should be poorly written well designed neo fag street art books - then again, maybe, thats what the masses want to see...in the words of Ed Koch..time will tell. I have just received Steel Wheels 1986 - 1997. As said before on this thread, this is definately a worthwhile purchase..

chitownbneatnik Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Hahah I saw that some girl I know who's writing a paper on hip hop or whatever (in university) was watching Style Wars earlier today, and she just sent me a text asking why Cap is "such a superdouche." Talk about a hard to explain situation, I'm a young gun from Chicago but this thread keeps me going, much respect to all the heads, kings, and legends in here.

desism_ktc Posted November 23, 2010 Author Share Posted November 23, 2010 It has been said over and over, plus the fact that they decided to make him the villain. People have to come to the reality that Style Wars as widespread as it is in this subculture, just isn't all truth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imported_joewelcome Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 lest we forget, the concept of "hip hop" is a marketing term first and foremost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why did Cap set out to destroy all lines? Anyone know of a CAP interview where he goes into details? Style Wars paints him as a stone cold racist (and a bit of a psychopath), but those who know also know that there has always been tension between ethnic races regarding the so-called ownership of graff (a preposterous idea, but let's go with it). Some argue that it is completely an invention of black subculture, but where does that put people like Taki and Phil T. Greek? Ok, so Style Wars painted him a racist, his more recent film exposure (e.g., Style Wars redux, bonus footage) seems to show that he is at ease with anyone, regardless of ethnicity. So what's the full story? Since he started his crusade to destroy all lines, I always assumed CAP was just on a joy ride, nothing else. So what was the deep dark ulterior motive behind his throwups? Inquiring minds want to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
