Quoted post fair enough, but you've got to give him credit, because: a) his throwie is decent, unlike a lot of that garbage you see today, and b) because he laid the ground work for the hardcore bombers and "extreme" writers which seem to dominate the graffiti scenes of america's inner cities. he pioneered the insane spots, that few before him had even attempted to hit once or twice (for example bridges, highways, water towers, billboards, etc.) he was one of the first writers to hit tunnels in the late 80s and early 90s, sparking an impressive movement that has continued to thrive up into the present. not to mention that he was one of the first bombers to truly go all city in new york and maintain that status throughout the decade. he was one of the first writers to actually be getting up in such large quantities. now a lot of people are up in enormous quantities liek that, but before, JA was one of the only ones. we kind of take it for granted. hes not just up - he was the one who brought meaning to the phrase "getting up". and not only getting up, but getting up in unheard of places that drew the public's attention. dont take JA for granted.

bumsuckfun Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 i like to think of SANE SMITH as laying the ground work for that style of bombing. when he hit the side of the brooklyn bridge (extremely dangerous spot) that got a lot of attention, not to mention his name seemed to be everywhere. but him and JA were tight and bombed together a lot, so they were doing a lot of this together until SANE's death. other 'extreme writers' who i think deserve props are SI, and SAKE (HYH) from Montreal. DAMO (also from Montreal) and FATSO (HW... Halifax) are more canadians that i really admire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thephunkbaby Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 wow, so many heads on JA's nuts, who cares, just do you. and in case you ain't know, JA is the bad ass white boy in karate kid 3. It's great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quoted post all im doing is trying not to sound redundant, like the people who say "fuck the haters" over and over again, just in different ways. its not that i have a problem with that: its just that it gets old, very fast. also, im not dickriding JA. im just making the point that he deserves some credit because he helped to change the graffiti world in some way, no matter how minor or subtle his influence was. hes not the worlds best writer, bomber, or whatever. he just happened to be one of the pioneers of a trend in writing. he was probably not the first to do it, but he was one of the first to get noticed doing it. as for the above, im just trying to clarify what i mean in response to a question. fuck off.

Boar103 Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 well JA is up, king, all city, ect. that's wonderful and great and all and you gotta give credit where credit is due.. and blah blah blah. some folks are riding his nuts hard. the only reason he's such a bad ass is cuz he doesn't give a fuck and ride nuts all day. you wonder why you aint all city is cuz your sitting there riding nuts waiting for your chance. my philosophy is "shut the fuck up and bomb harder." if you want to be up more then take the fuckin time and do it. don't be one of those fools WAITING for your chance... bomb the shit out of the city and if you gotta, go over JA. the reason he feels like he wants to stop is cuz there's no fucking competition for him and he's sitting on his throne. if you want your name known, you gotta earn it.

Guess that shoots your comment full of holes dublskilz. Quoted post JA IS A REAL GRAFF KING! End of story. Some of you middle anmerica and west coasters put too much of that artistic peicing shit into your oppinions. Graff is all about getting up, getting over, getting your name in everybody's mouth, and doing what you have to to stomp out your enemies rep when you have beef. True, nobody wants to look at a wack throwie or hand but JA hand and throwies are on point. I'd rather see a JA throwie than any unreadable mumbo jumbo under a freight bridge or on a leagal wall any day. Quoted post [/b] werd up .. id def rather see klean throwies rollers and striaght letter than ridiculous burners in the middle of nowhere .. i think in alot of ways thats why midwest and city graff contrast .. like dr.sex came to nyc and did his thing .. mad fillins in crazy spots and came up fast .. and then theres some writers that all u see are hand styles but there all over the place.. it jus shows who bombs and who paints..
