1970's Graffiti writers still itching to get up

Big up the 70's and 80's school.  Here's a short video of two New York 1970's writers that still have the itch to get up.  The video follows Zypher while getting up, then grabbing his daughters hand and walking away.  Classic!  It also shares some history on LA Roc.  Although I'm from the 80's school and not the 70's and feel like I'm following in this tradition to never stop this art form.  Thanks Mane for sending this my way.

OS Gemeos sighting in San Diego

 "Don't Believe the Hype!"
 
So I was out and about town the other day when I came out of the parking structure I had parked in.  I looked up and right before my eyes stood a 7 story high OS Gemeos paiting.  The painting was right on the side of the parking structure and read: "Don't Believe the Hype!"  Wish I would of ran into these two cats when they were gettin' it in.  God knows I love Brasil.  Glad I had my camera that day.

Self Destruction Video
"I'm Ms. Melodie and I'm a born again rebel/The violence in rap must cease and seckle/If we want to develop and grow to another level/We can't be guinea pigs for the devil/The enemy knows, they're no fools/Because everyone knows that hip-hop rules/So we gotta get a grip and grab what's wrong/The opposition is weak and rap is strong" -- Ms. Melodie on "Self Destruction"

Crazy Legs retiring letter


I came across this today and thought it was a cool share.  This is a letter Crazy Legs - Rock Steady Crew put out about his up coming retirement and his last battles at this years Rock Steady Anniversary.  Legs is one of the biggest B-Boy icons to ever lace up the fat laces and at age 46 he is still hungry and is going out (Battling) his way.  A big shout to my Boricua brotha Crazy Legs.  Thank you for all the great memories. #Salute #77
CRAZY LEGS ....35YRS IN THE GAME !! RSC 4LIFE 77
  • I can't sleep! All I can think about is battling and practicing. I feel like a creative genius right now. I wish i had somewhere to practice right at this very moment. B-boys and B-girls know the drill. It's coming closer to the RSC 35th Anniversary and what will be my final battles. I've been training for 5 months now and as each day passes I feel more anticipation and a greater sense of urgency. Every thought running through my head is about what that day will be like. I feel like I will never be ready enough, because of my own personal standards that I place on myself as a b-boy and member of Rock Steady Crew. There's no way that I'm taking any of these great WARRIORS that I'm battling, lightly. All of them are are incredible, command respect and will be going at me hard. Sometimes I feel like I'm crazy for even doing what I'm doing. Let's be serious and completely honest for a second. I'm 46 years old and battling people that are almost half my age. Who in their right mind does that any way? But, the way I see it. It's the icing on the cake for a long and great career as a b-boy. I get to go out on my terms and I get to do it in the very manner that I started with in the hip hop game. Any old school head knows that you had to put your reputation on the line in order to protect it. And if you couldn't do that, then you were a scrub, toy or just straight up WACK! And that's how I want to go out. Win, Lose or Draw, I'm going out like Frank Sinatra and doing it my way. Even a Crazy Legs hater that's a b-boy and is true to the game still and better give it up! Because, I'm going out HUNGRY, DETERMINE and with no FEAR. No bullshit and no fillers. Pure b-boying at it highest degree. Frontline status and no hiding behind a legacy, pioneer status or self-proclaimed "I'm the best" notion. I'm taking myself and putting myself on the virtual b-boy fishing rod as bait and telling people to come get it! I can't tell you what the outcome is going to be for each battle, but I will tell you one thing! If you want that floor, you better come and take it from me. I will feed off your desire to take any imaginary crown or title that you or anyone may have claimed that I have. It's on baby! And this Puerto Rican is on FIRE! I will see those that accepted to battle me in the ring on July 28, 2012 at The Altman Building in Manhattan. Bring your family, friends and hood. We're making history! Who has questions?

RIP - Yomo Toro


We lost a big one.  The great Puerto Rican musician Yomo Toro has passed.  My condolences go out to his family.  Yomo Toro born in Guanica, Puerto Rico is better known for playing the "Cuatro" the national instrument of the island.  He started playing at age 6 and by 15 had formed his first trio - "La Bandita de la Escuela trio".  He is credited for being the first to play the Cuatro in Salsa music and  bringing the indigenous instrument to the rest of the world.  Yomo also played with the greatest Salsa band of all times "Fania" started in 1968.  He recorded an amazing over 150 albums and worked with all sorts of other artist and genres.  The Cuatro is used mainly in "Jibaro" music and that is something he displayed his entire carer.
