Realife : A good piece says a thousand words!

 

You get funny shit...then you get mad crazy... with a humouristic touch of ironic twists... that will even make your mother blush remembering her hay-days of wild...wild styles and sex positions that she thought you best discover yourself! Well discover this! I present to the uninformed... the REALIFE- (of) Selfish Vandals, if you always wanted to know and was too sheltered by overprotected parents... the realife. In true classical black-and-white style of presentation that leaves something for the imagination to ponder about! Don't get me wrong this shit ain't got nadda to do with black-and-white fucking racial bull-shit...naa..na na!

Like for instance, at times when you put a colour and a black-and-white picture of the same thing next to each other...the grains and tectures of greys flirting with the positive and negative spaces makes fucking love with your eyes and can tell a story like no rainbow-colour-sceme can. Yeah O.K; I can get carried away and true too maybe these cats just didn't have enuff loot to afford colour prints, but this magazine and accompaning visual-disc really earns street acknowledged respect. Did you get that... you get a double whammy; read it and check-it-out on a screen. Its dope! I was actually doing a google search on Realife...and what did I find?...links to church orginazations and religious backwash. Hey, no disrespect...its just a point of interest...see for yourself. But this is a type of church of another kind.
 
 
And how loyal are these church members to show their dedication? Here's a case study of note...I was about to enter into a CPT-club and at the entrance their was this dude appropriately named Psychoderek trying to hustle free entry pass the bouncer and doorlady. At this point it seemed he already tried all the tricks in the book, so out of total despiration (and it was clear too that he was deep inside the bottle)... he struck a deal with the bouncer... if he rolled head first down a two-storey flight of stairs, he would be allowed entrance. The bouncer properbly thought this guy was gonna bail-out, but then without a blink of hesitation, Psychoderek was well on his way to come face to face with momma earth. Very much to everyone delight who was standing around...he afterwards, ran back up the stairs and did it again cause the bouncer wasn't all that convinced of the degree of difficulty. Needless to say... later I saw Psychoderek stumping away on the dancefloor...Respect bra!
Straight jamm-packed with street-gems including BMX-, skate- and graff features; interesting views and delibarations on controversial issues like the Twin-Tower fiasco, religion, sex tips, marijuana, "hold the beef I'm a vegetarian", a comic-strip; a crazy interview with Falco... and more... hey you can even catch Bush check-out some blondes watermelon-sized tits! Strictly adolescent entertainment here... hey grandad give my copy back...Its a head on collition with shit people usually tip-toe around, like that shit people don't want to talk about in bars cause it can so-easy erupt in some head-butting and upper-cutting. Yeah and the video is SICK...dude mad entertaining... catch these cats totally destroy a train, a trainstation; hear "5th Floor" kill it with S.A.-flava; watch cats skating and goof-off. But only one thing...cats don't be fronting with the BMX-ers... they need iron balls to manoeuvre their iron horses!
This is what Realife got to say..."those who stand for nothing will fall for every thing... (this publication is) specifically for the people who feel out of place in our social system. It is not a feeling you would ever wish upon yourself, it is definitely the hard road to follow..." Whats more is that they are by no means tight-assed, stingey motha fuckas about their shit either, they want their work to be accessed by all means possible and available.
