Stylestudie : A good piece says
a thousand words!
 |
...Say
it outloud...Who? What!
You could fit it into the back pocket of your Massive-fit
Levi Jeans or the side pockets of your paint-dripped
cargo pants... the illest quality colour S.A.-graff
mag...writers definitely want to feature in. It shows
you exactly that too...who? & what!...about style
of murals, chromies, characters, trains and sketches.
Then too, it brief you up on the African Hip Hop Indaba
2002, Heal The Hood 2003 and African Battle Cry. |

You
get the feel that the creative team (Mak 1 & Nutso)
were dreaming about doing this sort of thing for a span,
and now its really happening. I salutè you! These
dudes (like I don't know..) were graffing long before
most writers could properly display any can-control
and nozzle skillz. There's also a article by S.A.-graffiti
legend Falko (TVA), called"Know your shit"...you
can read it below...you getting it all free. These names
Mak 1 and Falko are big not only big...huge in graff
circles...responsible for livening up the ghetto's with
colourful murals and sick characters, and what?... are
these guys funny... I was thinking these cats should
have their own sitcom... they're pure Cape Town entertainment.
AayyySShh, once I was stuck with them for 27 hours in
a compartment on a train from J-sek to CPT. Dude, I
had severe stomach-aches laughing myself in my chopes.
It so happened that we just happen to share the same
compartment out of about 150 people, by pure chance.

We had a little
boom-box which attracted mad attention...like thats
gonna stop them from goofing. |

Stylestudie
features mad writers from different crews... Merk, Num2,
Sky189, Tag4, Slate, Tec2, Pest, Dr.1, Falko, Faith,
Wealz, Ice, Mantis, Econ, Lover, Anoy...see for yourself!
Also Mak1 and his "original" crew-TVA along
with the WOTS-crew were featured in a Graff Documentary
called "Overspray" screened on SABC and whatnot,
deplicting the battle element inheritend to Graffiti.
Anyways...read their shit they can get serious too.
Here's Mak 1 breaks it down in term of writing, tagging,
bombing...Give him a listen! In his own words,"...to
those doing the do, do more..." |
"...Like don't just say it, bro spray it!"
"The creative staff of StyleStudie magazine do
not condone any illegal painting of walls, trains or
any other property. Many of the photographs displayed
were sent anonymously with no way of tracing the photographers."
I told you this guy was funny... |
