Whats good world.This is big Joe GOAL straight out of Staten Island N.Y....Ive been in the graff game since 1990.As a kid from Staten Island it was a little harder to learn about the other boros because Staten Island is disconnected from the other 4 boros. I remember as a young kid taking the Staten Island ferry to the city to take photos and go to scrap yard to get caps and check out graff mags and shit with my partner in crime SW. At the time I was writing EPIC.SW brother was writing RB and was atop writer on Staten doing fresh pieces and bombin with dope throw ups and big block buster letters everywhere.Besides RB I looked up to other Staten Island writes like ECHO DBC ,SCOPE 2 ,MARS,and crews like TA,OSR,VGL,with were all  from Staten .In the early and mid 90's there was no graff on the computer so the way niggas got to see shit was through trading photos with other writers.
         
                In about 1994 I linked up with this crazy nigga CH,and BETZ ,CH formed RTH crew .BETZ had the whip so we could start exploring all the other boros and other places like NJ.and around 95 I had my first run in with the vandal squad.and at the time I was writing EPIC and bombin with a friend of my witch picked the tag GOAL but didn’t write.he would drive and I would hook both of us up on bomin missions.Before you knew it the name GOAL was everywhere and THE TAG EPIC was mad hot with vandal squad so one day I just decided to keep the tag GOAL for myself.IN 96 97 the RTH crew blew up all city and started making some major connection in the graff game with crews like 36 T2B BTS BBT 5MH from Brooklyn and the SMART CREW FTR MTA NWC from Queens WF BTC TIT from the BX ..



                
                   FROM 1996 TO 2006 goal went all city 10 times over and traveled the country writing and making connection in all those years there was many arrests for graff but vandal squad could never get anything to stick and the worst thing to happen was a little bit of community service and some bull shit fines.but in 2007 vandal squad had enough  of GOAL and started buildin a case and the next time GOAL was arrested they through the book at me.The tactics the vandal squad used were fucked up and the totally mad up mad bull shit for the charges to stick.they also tried anything to get goal to sign paper admiting guilt like beating the shit out of me leaving me in a cell for days with no phone calls tons of fake made up charges to try to put goal in jail and off the streets and it worked.
     
                   Now its 2009 and niggas can hold GOAL down hes still here doin his thing.All the lies and bullshit GOAL was put though with these fucked up punk ass pussy cops just mad it worst.because a niggas pissed at the world now.and will be here forever...FUCK VANDAL SQUAD.....R.I.P SEMZ.-SPEK BTC -ODB-DRONE-IZ THE WIZ- NACE-SACE IRAK
