Wankster to the max

Diss him if you will........

But he got rich, fucked Madonna & did enough drugs to kill an elephant in the 80's..........














Now that I think about it, so did a lot of other guys too. ;)

this flicks dope!!! :love2:

[12:02p.m]

i actually just watched that movie "basquiat" today and boy did he live one crazy life....to bad he ended it at a young age but it seemed to me like he did alot of things one would do in a full lifetime...
bump for samo! :king: :king: :king:

[PREPPY GANGSTA]

Hate to be the dick but I went to the Basquiat show at the brooklyn museum and was extremely unimpressed.

not a fan, not at all.

[brasse hed]

so was there any need to post that in a rip thread for him...no. whatever anyones opinions are he was an innovator and deserves all the respect hes given, r.i.p samo

In other words "If you have nothing nice to say dont say anything at all". I should probally shut up now!!!

[war pigs]

not for nothing but how was he a graffiti innovator?...he didn't really do pieces..he caught some tags with sayings next to them but there were heads who did that before him...like "flint..for those who dare"...who would pen his tags with a number of phrases

as a painter his stuff was cool but don't throw out the term "innovator" just because you saw the movie and think he was the first...

[12:02p.m]

no one said he was the first to do it.....inovatter yes......how many people were writting graffitti in 78? not very many...and about the major pieces and all that i dont think anyone really thought it was possible yet...this thread is so that we can pay tribute to samo not to talk shit and rag on him....

RIP KING SAMO....fuck the dumb

[PREPPY GANGSTA]

That's not really shit, back then you could just blast off...
And mad people were doing graffiti in '78, get a grip, this guy wasn't a writer.

RIP

but don't let the media pull the wool over your eyes or 20 years down the road people will be saying neckface was revolutionary and your kids will believe it.

[12:02p.m]

wasnt a writter? he went out and wrote shit on walls. the key word in that last sentance is "wrote". isnt graffiti about the way you express yourself and the art and culture of hip hop and all that? well thats how he expressed him self by using catchy phrases and weird looking charectors. it may not be cool to you now but back then people might have thought wow thats really neat. so yes i do think he was a revolutionary graffitti artist because he was there in the begining of it all. so lets stop arguing about it in this thread this thread was started to say good things about samo not to talk shit to eachother so you think what you wanna think and ill think what i want too.................done!

REST IN PHAME SAMO..

[CD-R]

i agree he was a writter...but revolutionary? eh i dont think so. his style was diffrent then most. but there were people like iz and dondi writting in the 70's in new york. i would think of dondi as more revolutionary than samo. no diss. rest in peace.

[Mad Maz one]

The reason he was a revolutionary was that he made people question the style of the stereotypical black artist. Not graff artist, gallery artist.

Also, if you read any interviews with him, he refuses to be classified as a writer.

[CD-R]

he may refuse but i mean he was out writting graffiti...and yeah i agree with the whole gallery art thing.

[rick flair]

heroin is a mother fucker!!

[odoil]

yes it is
rip basquiat

[Mr. Ape]

basquiat was a good movie........this guy had a tough life from what it looked like. RIP

[Yellow Feets]

Anyone have any articles? This is kinda interesting.

[Mr. Ape]

i think if you look him up on google you can find some.......his interviews are pretty cool too.

check this movie out....found it in barcelona spain!

more about the movie!

[Ron McDonald]

Basquiat's paintings were by far better than his graffiti. He did get up, but he never followed the regular path of graffiti writing, and cannot really be classified as a writer. It's more like a very early form of street art, in the respect that what he did with a spraycan on the street led directly to his work in galleries. Props to the dude anyway.

[FuzZy]

FUCK DRUGS........they kill and thats about it
besides weed, never been proven to cause any illness and/or OD

exactly. his graffiti was whatever, im not really a fan of it. but his paintings are where the innovation and general amazing-ness shows the most.

[r3ader]

to anybody, somebody else's graffiti is "whatever". there is no one else in the world that i can think of anyway that is as accepted in the normal art world that came from graffiti as samo.

i love the way if it's not fucking bubble letters or your particular preferred shit, it's not graffiti. so to most writers banksy isn't a graff artist? great, that doesn't mean he doesn't own most people, including maybe you.

it just means the jealousy is affecting your eyes as well as your heart.

i'm not saying his graff was fucking world bending, but the dude had an original style that inspired many great current artists.

he's the only writer i know who's name is COMMONLY brought up in the defense of other writers -

i.e. lawyer saying "my defendant views himself in the genre of the Basquiat art style"

and IT HELPS.

if you do illegal shit, you're a writer.

and who fucking knows, maybe neckface is revolutionary. i don't get why people dig his shit, but i know lots of people that are fans of his and i see flicks of his shit all the time (i live in texas, not NY). just because it doesn't make me go "wow" doesn't mean it didn't inspire someone else to get off their ass and go paint.

and if they did that, they're a fucking writer.

don't hate the dead, that's the lamest kind of internet beef, for sure.

RIP Samo

and yeah, drugs are a mother fucker, but the world fucking sucks, and some people need help coping. sometimes they choose the wrong things for help. don't hate them for that, try to help them/similar others for that.

peace
