After overwhelming response, I decided to go back and take a closer look…found some more faded tags still running, but not for long…

I was never into street bombin since
nothing could compare to hittin steal ....
From wat i remember the 1st heads really rockin streets was
P13 /AS2/ OE -then i remember JOZ -EASY-TEKAY
FIB - DCEE - JA - AFTER THAT its all a Blur!!!!
——————————————————————————
I’m a bit strange and like things the average person
really don’t identify with,for instants
ive seen allot of nice spots in my day.
high spot low spot whatever .
But my all time favorite spot wuz
a spot on Astor and Lafayette -
CHRIS 217 took a tag inside a dinner that had
an all glass patio n every time i passed it id see
his tag floating above someone’s head while they wer eating
always made me laugh .......
that was my alltime most favorite spot
cause it alway’s put a smile on my face ....
