Mutant Waste were doing the same in the mid 80s around Ladbroke Grove and Kings Cross. It does looks like a very good exhibition though and I have agree with the others concerning the facts, but i will definitely past down and see what it's all the fuss is about.
Oh dear, nothing worse than the old school moaning about the good old days, people like 10 foot tagging anything that is new or progressive, it like art fascism. Its like, yeah we are anonymous and underground but when it comes to recognition its me, me, me!!. How sad
fair enough i respect you're doing something positive, but get the facts straights or don't do it.. it's far better to reseach what you're doing and give prop's where it's due, rather than using something you were never part of for your own needs, exploiting it, and watering down the facts...
Don't get it twisted, we're talking about street art hear graffiti right? Ladbroke Grove right? Celebrating 30 years right? Get in the above mentioned writers then you got a party!!
Who's this guy?? Mode 2 was INVITED by the original GROVE writers, Skam One, Hate, Foam, Rio.. He used to sh$t his pants coming down to us!! Futura 2000 started it all for us, 1982!! and NOT in that bay... LAY LOW for life!!
But you agree that Futura 2000 started it under the Westway, that's good enough... now the scene is bigger, more diverse and international as never before - and we're back under the Westway to celebrate that. Ultimate respect to all the originals.
Yeah Ultimate respect to all the originals!! But its good to know who they are right? I didn't hear you mention Futura in the clip!
Back under the Westway to celebrate, If I was in your shoes I'd wanna celebrate with the ORIGINALS, Mode 2 is top artist but not one of the originals! Respect where respect is due.. Bro I could tell you some stories of our adventures under Westway, I've got some exclusive footage from that time as well! Mode 2 is not from GROVE! We take pride in our history!
Graffiti has always been around here long before futura ever step on to british soil. Much of the graffiti was political surrounding the notting hill race riots, then came the hippies followed by the skins and punks. The hippies were very expressive and creative in what they painted for the time, this being the 60s and late early 70s. later on came the punk scene and it was the punk group The Clash who brought futura over to ladbroke grove. people around here have always had something to say.
Yes Cypherism! Much respect to mutant Waste!! Went to all there parties in the 80's
( Paddington Basin, Old Isaac Newton School..Etc)
What I take exception too is people talking about something on which they have limited knowledge on! Better Research!
