Gayboys!
It's quite good, gives a little insight into what they mean which is a big art of it all for me
RE: My graff thread -

I'll give you a little insight into what his work means: "I was a graff artist but I've always been a bit a of a pompous self-righteous tool and I got sick of being smashed in the face by real writers for being a cunt and once had my trousers pulled down in front of a load of people at a graff exhibition so I left that scene behind and went to art school where I saw some of Blek Le Rat's wanky stencil shit and decided I was gonna totally rip him off and make a stack of money out of it, whilst all the time pretending I was making some massively deep and insightful socio-political statements when really I was just about the dollar"
And there you have it, Banksy in a nutshell.

Oh bloody hell, you're such drama queens!

I'll dig out some old pictures of some Graf round Wolves, some excellent artists round here at one point.

I was going to say something yesterday shortly after your post gimp. But then I thought it might be more entertaining not to. I'm sorry
That's a nice gift though fella
Some of Banksy's work I do find amusing, but I can't see what the hype is about. I mean anyone can cut a stencil and go out a spray it can't they? I wouldn't call it graff.

So you could have saved me the bitchin then Sam, pppffft
I've heard he was shit at freehand but that's just the way it is, he's copied the French dude and made a fortune out of being a political cock.
Shit happens

Goldie (the DnB producer/actor) ruled the Uk graff scene for a short while in the 80's and his bro Zeki was pretty good too.

I know his Cousin, he walks round Wolves and is the spitting image, gold teeth the lot.
Temper is from Wolves as well if you've heard of him.

The whole family are alike, like peas in a pod! I know of Temper but don't know him personally. He's dope.
