yeah i agree with guer. too bad most of LA forgot those dope styles from back then and started doing pieces and tags that look like razorwire and twigs. i love the old LA stuff from up until like 93, then again up to 95.

 

i totally feel this. razor wire and twigs. shit is too pointy

el bart's slick and katch were never in the same crew back in the days.....

slick was with hawaii's infamous crew bomb squad and wild style writers

katch was part of the most up crew in hawaii, masters in art

New York and that most graff today is influenced from those ol'

skoolers from the 5 buroughs, but i'll bet that the west coast was

doin they shit just as hard, if not harder, even before it got big on

the east coast... think about it, Cholo gang graff goes pretty far

back... and more to the point, west coast nigz were the first to

come with REAL style. sure nigz in New York came up with some

"Wild Style" letters and what not, but them Cali nigz had WAY more

complexity and color ideas goin on... and they didn't just wake up

one day like "oh shit, we got skillz, so lets go use them..." and

thats the thing. the reason they're not sweated as hard as they

should be as innovators is because they wasnt sweatin themselves.

New York nigz were like "Hey lookit me! I'm a tagger!" much props to

the western end.. AND the WEst Coast END crew... the REAL END crew.

:king: i gueuss your from the west coast eh

ahhhh....my young kid brain and heart can taste and feel these like it was yesterday. thats when graffiti first entered my blood stream. beautiful. does anyone else get flash backs of their early days when they smell spray paint? its hit or miss for me. sometimes i can remember 11 years ago sitting under a bridge, trying to imitate the local masters. going to canals or alleys, always in the daytime after school. cans were hard to come by, but always around. engine paint. shoe polish. tagging in the school bathrooms. nwa. beastie boys. fate rats and eight balls for the 8 in f8 (it was like the stussy logo) sooo hot. battles. fights. fox news special reports. ek. bubble letters with a star gleam on every letter. tagging on rocks and trees.

Fancy Lad,

 

Rubidoux/Riverside maybe? Permatex engine paint or whatever the hell it was. Put an outline cap on it, it sprayed like a FAT fatcap, put a fatcap on it, it would spray bigger than a basketball. EK, I remember. FTG.The canals, many stories there.
