i like philly hands and all, but i'm so fucking sick of seeing them.
theres no variety, no diversity, the whole intention is to make your tag look exactly like a text book 'philly' style. that's cool and all, but christ...there are more to handstyles than illegible uniform scribbles.
remember 4 years ago when everyone and their mom was trying to do an LA hand? remember when everyone talked shit abotu them? philly is the new LA. please stop.
look, we'll cross the "hesh accidentally shot himself in the ass" bridge when we come to it. no homo
*BLACK OUT POSSE*
look SEEK all im doin is reppin where i from...i aint some snot nose kid tryin to "imitate" philly...goto boston..bmore..la..nyc..most of that is illegible as well...with alot less talent..the problem is any other places hands can be done with minimal practice..let me see you throw out a dope tall hand.. or wicket...then well talk...
the problem is people dont appreciate what it takes to bang out some of our hands..so they automatically dismiss them...
again i say i aint here to argue but im also tired of peeps givin us shit...
"you stay in the car and go g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g all day in your sports bra"
if you're not a 'snot nosed kid' then don't act like one. let me have my opinion and understand what i'm saying instead of getting all defensive on some bullshit. if you were really repping where you were from, i'd think you'd be a little more understanding of what i'm saying. now a days philly hands are getting bastardized to the point where they're generic copies of what they used to be. a million people can do a bad philly, only a handfull of people can do a good one, and only a fraction of writers can tell the difference. by posting every philly hand that someone sees, you're (no you in specific) watering down your own scene, making it generic. if you're fine with that, then i guess thats all you, but personally, i'd rather see one or two dope phillys, than 50 kids trying to do phillys.
and don't be fooled, philly hands are no harder to do than any other regional hand style. sure, they'll look like shit, but so do the people biting la styles, or boston styles. since you're not familiar with them, you maybe can't tell the difference, but it's definitely there.
SF1,
the word is 'wickets', not 'wickeds'. jesus christ. if you're gonna rep your style like it's life depended on you, atleast learn to spell it.

Fuck it yo, Philly-fuck these h8rs. That's word, just do your thing, don't worry bout no one and keep reppin. If you don't like that shit, go away, simple.
dink throwin up da whole crew
rip ORO
chino byi
throw dem Ls up.
seeks you sound really misinformed about philly hands... "illegible unifrom scribbles"? puh-leaze
and it can spelled "wickeds" or "wickets", SF1 is correct. i know you like to know it all, but honestly you should just not talk about it..we get it, youre not a fan, moving right along.
ps that ATLAS and SUNSET is banging and so is that silver RIME on brick in pittsburgh..he rocked a "kings catching wreck" hand next to that tag that was in a really live handstyle too
