always support'n tha local talent

I was born and raised in a city which is NOW labled tha "MURDER CAPITAL" (Gary,Indiana aka G.I.)where graffiti dosen't exist besides tha productions and fast taggs and throws I did. It only contains tha negotivities of tha what any corrupted city brings(no need to specify). Started getting into this back in 88 with jus bust'n taggs all over. Tha only influences of graff I had came from a neighboring city called East Chicago " Harbor Side" here in the northwest side of Indiana. Just watching those guys rock'n walls back in 85 was tha sh!t. Madd crews were out back then all tha way til tha early 90's and what really caught my eyes where these everyday kats do'n burners, throw ups (lifsize) bust'n taggs everywhere you would go even spread to other neighboring cities (Hammond). Hearing about tha wars between crews especially tha infamous Tuff boys (Tha Ultimate Fresh Force) and Hitman Bombing Crew battle. Even hearing these guys talk about entering tha CTA battles in Chicago with their sketchbooks full of charectors, multicolored pieces and photo albums full of crew flix, bombing action shots, and my favorite str8 up productionz. After try'n to get sum tips and whutever I needed to know about tha whole techniques of can control I was lol was only told tha rules and a few history stories of graff. So i took it upon myself to teach myself which in my eyes became a blessing in diquise. whuts funny now is that these same guys who told me "come back at a later time son" take credit for my heart and knowledge of my techniques. Still progress'n my style and techniques i have grown alot in tha game. This iz not only a hobby but a lifestyle for me. I can honestly say I am tha first successful graff writa straight out of G.I. (gary,indiana) who has gain a rep here (northwest indiana) and gaining a slow one in Chicago. Was put down with CISA (crazy indy style artists) in late 2001 (Ish, Busta, Flex, Traz) along with Bone. Then in late 2003 started s3 (south shore slayers) with sum made writas (Ish, Kwaze and Bone) . Me myself was never a hardcore bomber but still did my share of damage from simple taggs to lifesize blow ups to outlines. My main love was always rock'n pieces BUT i give madd respect to those all city bombers keeping it grimey and stanky ya digg. NO MATTER WHERE I LIVE OR MOVE TO, I WILL FOREVA BE A G.I. SPIC ALL DAY AY DAY. ALL DEM G.I. LATINOZ KNOW WHUT I'M TALK'N ABOUT......NO DOUBT, ALL MY WILD OUT MEXIKANOZ & BORICUAZ WHUT!!!!! G.I. 2 THA FULLEST. 5th Block, West Hell all tha way to Hill Top, Chocolate City, West Side To tha East Side
