clean
So we've always been told that graffiti is bad...
When we were young we were told and threatened that our exam and test papers would not be graded if any doodling and drawings were on it-
We were told that graffiti is a crime and is against the law and can cause serious problems to and for your reputation,
we were also lead to believe that graffiti is for thugs and for uneducated people with issues
that have unsettled lifestyles...
I then started going to hip hop sessions, going to hip hop gigs and hip hop parties;
I would see people with spray cans, with stencils and big bags filled with more spray cans...
during the free-styles, some of b-boys and B-girls would be on the wall spraying...
I would go and check it out to see what "they were doin''.... I like it....
A friend of mine had a spray can...and me being into hip hop, the culture and the lifestyle, I wanted to experiment and see what it's like... I was so bad at my spraying that I ended up just writing letters and not designing... my letters were neat though yo...they were descent!!!
and fortunately it was at a wall put aside for graffiti...so no...I did not br8 the law....
Murals are a bit more acceptable in society though...could never understand why...? That's a topic for another day-
If you wanna see some dope graffiti...you should go to Newtown...and also make sure you attend the annual BACK-TO-THE-CITY festival...ill shit!
