We had Raekwon in the store last night. Before he left (after an hour and half Q&A to a packed house) he hit the wall of the store up... pretty decent style.
There's nothing in the world like Philly graffiti. Not to take anything away from traditional New York hands, or traditional California styles, but Philly scripts are a BEAST to themselves. And what N said is straight - as a Philly writer you have to learn and PERFECT 7,8,9 different styles.

Me and the hommie go WAAAY back, high school shit, since before he moved to Oakland and linked up with TMP. Never knew about the yard incident but I knew him and Dream made their peace, N is TDK though. I was with him the day after Dream passed, he was so broken up about that. We all were, it was absolutely fucking terrible.
Maybe keep that footage under wraps, Drez!
Anyway yeah N is also KTS WAB ICY. He's a good dude, good to still see the dude pushing the crew.
Why did I think the girl who's real name is Dream, was Vogue? Who the fuck was the girl Dream then? Go aheead and hit ignore user because I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about.

I guess she was just another nag champa enthusiast who liked to paint walls.
Yeah let's make this the OFFICIAL GRAFFITI THREAD.
I have posted a lot of flciks in previous threads, although I suppose I could go back and just copy the tags and repost here. Are we really making it official before I do it? Or do we start an official "GRAFF THREAD"? Holler.
ps - You know I love that Philly shit, illest hands ever! Nothing in the world like it.
Nah, i got all those at home, i just link to flicks off the net to share with folks here. My flicks at home are a damn mess. But I will post the flicks from the last 2 or 3 threads here, for the sake of flavor. Here goes...

Philly style. I knew it. I'm not much of a writer but I've always been in awe of this stuff.
I got mad styles.

SF generally used to have a lot more rooftop flavor also. the game done changed.

First time I saw a dude from Philly tag on video was a jaw dropping experience. Dopest hand styles in the world, hands down.
