sorry but kas, etc were all the offspring of the OG east ender/scarborough writers..scam, dece/jef, cerious aka smer, dash, trem, cear, rims, juel/taos, jon/zes 2, para one, snic/rcade, adek, mek/cole, troach/drugs, etc the kas dudes def took the torch over after most of the above writers slowed down or stopped though. hfb and au were def inspired by all the north toronto and downtown writers like spydr, tack, time, dum/muk, cover, mock, mine, echo and a gang of other heads who's tags I can't remember dope that cker is back in the game on the low.. really though. the OG's in this city are obvious. ren, cyber, base, demo, msk, kane, recka, seek, shit even dudeman had mad ups at one point. seems like not many kids did the math on the history of their scene before 96. to graff was in it's heyday in 1996 when espo, twist, sub, tyke, krush, etc all came down for flexpo 96. pre-416, pre-SIP. flexpo was corporate loot backing an all city graf expo. big up michael chesney even though he was a dick, a bunch of writers ate good off that fool.
Yes, Deadbeats I think. AlBundy, you're totally on point with that post. Those were the days that I loved, I still have that Flexpo poster! As for the Eastend roll call you forgot Duro but more importantly you omitted Sadie who was a huge influence to all the writers you named there. Peace.
i wouldnt say that au were inspired by those people. they had a completely different style of graffiti. they were definetly inspired by dumb/muk, vader, mener, jar, teck and causr. but really au got inspiration from themselves i think. at the time they were young high school kids completely burning the earlier generations. they stepped tdots game up. and really took street level shit to a new high in toronto. i fucking miss those days. but yea tacks old handstyles were doing it back in the day.
a good bit of knowledge here but a bit flawed. its all good though.. OG's you can add to the list... Kid-C, Galooch, Pez, Trax, the original Demo, Virus, Sec, Hope, DJK, Stone.. All of which were before '92...... throw dwel, real, spk in there just after that... Flexpo was not pre-416. 416 was first... and yeah Chesney was a dick, and ripped a lot of peeps off, then moved to Bali. I enjoy reading about other peoples that are studying their histories. good on ya.
