I was telling my co-worker about the documentary going into deep detail when he stops me and is like "dude, that's my brother"
His name is James Bias and his father's name is James Bias, Len bias' dad.
That shit blew my mind
Not once did you think.. hey.. this guy has a weirdh last name that's the same as Len.
That's fucking crazy mang. You ninjas know about Hook Mitchell? he didn't die, but drugs completely derailed him.
It's funny how exceptional athletes as well as extremely bright people (geniuses) seem to commonly fall into vices like this.

You know Crabman was high AF and couldn't make the association.

Probably had a case of the dumbs. His perception of the situation was probably...


... biased.

That's awesome!
In Zurich, the trains and surrounding tunnels and walls are all covered in graffiti! Super cool!

I love when them bomb the whole side of a car but then have the courtesy to add back the car number they pained over. Something about a vandal artist being so polite makes me chuckle.

I guess they feel if they show respek (put some on my name please) that they'll leave the artwork up!

Some graffiti pieces are true works of art! I always enjoy sitting at trains and watching it go by. My question is, how long does it take to do one of those big ones down the whole side?

Some of the elaborate ones can take many hours with a handful of people working on it. They'll get thrown up at night when the train is parked.

There are some really cool videos on Youtube of the early NYC graffiti movement and they talk about jumping into the train yards, throwing up a piece over night, but then after the transit authority started getting strict, they'd pull the cars and clean them before they could go out.

But for the most part, any of the graffiti on the side of a train will have been done in one shot. Not like they can plan and take a couple days to execute.

I love watching the trains roll by and seeing the mobile art.

How much would you guys sell a stock base exhaust from the 3rd cat back? I have a local guy interested. Does $150 sound reasonable?

Y'all vatos think the smartwatch will be the next douche magnet?
I saw someone pay with their smart watch a few weeks back and I thought..

Maybe I'm just jelly anus.
Personally.. I think it's the next bluetooth ear piece.
Like taking your fucking huge iPad around to take pictures / video.

and it isnt instantaneous like RFID is... activate the bluetooth by rotating my phone 90 degrees and I have to wait at least 5 seconds for the app and lock to talk to each other.

so, you get a bunch of people waiting at the door or garage entrance waving a phone at a little black box

I like to free hand
A lot of artist use forms, and there's nothing wrong with that
But it feels cheap.. unauthentic reps cuzz.
I'm ok.. back in the day it was about trying different styles, arrows, backgrounds, flares, etc.
Took me a while to focus on the art.. that part is tough, it's difficult to do murals.
Some guys draft what they want to do, plan the background first and edge it over.
The real good guys can go in and just start something from nothing and look amazing..
that ain't me cuhh.. I be like.. this looks like mierda! Hope somebody writes over it..

I just feel like his art is really commercialized.. like it's trying to really say something but really it's trying to sell a message.
