CREWS: 156 OTB TEK TCM Team TFO SK TDO HP
Influenced by: FC,FBA,156,COD,TAT, Dero in particular but always kept it true with the NYC style of Lettering.
While living in the South BX I was seeing the works done by locally by cats like Tyke, Sade, Dune, Reven, Bea, Kent III, Bash,Karl,Gizmo (R.I.P),Case2,Moet,Crack, Pre-Sweet TR nation, G-man PGA and the list could go on.
I would always take the 5 train from Jackson Ave and had the privlage to see the amazing cars that were being pulled out in the early and late 80's including TAT TNB TOA,COD,BlockBusters by KEMT and Cope2 just kinging the IRT's Tyke, Rea, Pose (R.I.P) and Ric going against MPC. as well as Seen(UA) and PJ's comeback with his wholecars and their throw ups.
After moving to Spanish Harlem I met Vulcan, Radio KA, Dero (who was painting with a cat that wrote Brian at the time) Dar TRC, Shop TWB all at the Hall Of Fame which was not far from me. I then met up with BIA3, Har, and BadBoy who had formed a crew called HP -High Post and I ran with them for a bit hitting Spanish Harlem, Sanitation trucks, and some Layups Shortly after I became a member of 156 shortly before JonOne left to Paris in 87. JOZ (R.I.P) ,Easy, and Josh5 hadd all the city gates on smash by then.
In 89 I left the game, As the train era was coming to a close Sent,know Shoroz, DC3, and Dome were doing it up with a vengence. I moved to Canada in 2002 and Moved to Montreal in 2005 and thats where I reconnected with the Graff game as it was like NYC in the 80's to Me, I met Zek ,Sake, etc and ran with it from there and started Piecing again. I contacted Jon and asked him if he would allow me to start a Chapter up here and from there it took off, I started reconnecting with the fam back in NYC which brought the resurgence of 156 back to North America also Brought Meeting Of Style to Montreal with Senk and Zek see MOSMTL.COM.
