Elcs Yeah I am saying that, but New York has alot more graf than Tokyo, the ratio of Population/writers is totally different. I mean, there might be more than 100, but they certainly arent up much. The only people who are visible in the city are the writers who belong to MSK and SRT, and then a few other individuals (but even then they are mostly just taggers). Come to think of it, there probably are more than 100, but like I said before, it doesnt show. (by the way, are you the elcs who wrote in Tokyo a few years back?)
what about acc? i know theyve got mad ups in brooklyn and parts of manhattan, probably the other boroughs too
For art - Not fame or lifestyle or rush (Though that's good) Honestly, I can't fuckin stand rap, or ghetto shit, or gangs or any of that. I like classical music, I try to do good in school, and I love art. Lifestyle? Fuck it man, all except a few writers i've heard of actually manage to keep from going to jail, or fucking up their lives in one way or another. It's all about the art man, if you're just doing it because it's "cool" or some shit, then you shouldn't even do it in my opinion. Only true artists deserve to bomb, because seeing gang shit or really crappy stuff gives graffiti a bad name. You gotta put your soul into it, heart and soul is what a good piece is made of. Just my opinion, not saying "Fuck y'alls" or anything like that.
Because Life is too short to let myself slip away unnoticed. I express myself through these walls and everyone is too close minded to see that. Only my brothers know this and Understand what it is all about.
FAME ADRENALINE ART And the fine ass bitches that say "wow look at that graffiti on the wall created by some anonymous graffiti person i would totally love it if someone wrote MY name like that.." Then you say "well i might be able to try..." and BAM next thing you know you're fuckin No..actually that's never happened to me...but w/e
