DARQ AND BLEN 167




my first piece since i got back from europe my partner darq had a fever for rockin so we set up the wall and rocked . it was mainly freestyle we had an idea of what we wanted to do but like most of the time we just paint for the fun of it . it rained heavy but we waited for it to calm down and finished before sun down .

EURO TRIP 2009 FIRST STOP FRANCE BAGNOLET







MY TRIP TO FRANCE WAS AN INTERESTING ONE I CALLED IT BOOT CAMP. WHEN WE GOT TO THE AIRPORT IT KINDA SUCKED WE DIDNT KNOW THE LANGUAGE WE FIGURED PEOPLE SPOKE A LITTLE ENGLISH BUT WE WERE WRONG . WE GOT IN CONTACT WITH OUR CONECTS KONGO AND DISCO BUT LEARNED WE HAD TO TAKE THE TRAIN TO OUR DESTINATION IT WAS COOL . I NOTICED HOW IN FRANCE THEY HAD A LITTLE MORE BALLS THEN PUERTO RICO WRITERS I GOT SO USED TO SEEING JUST SLOPPY TAGGIN AND RANDOM THROW UPS THAT WHEN I SAW FULL FILLED SILVER BLOCK LETTERS ALONG SIDE BUSY STREETS AND TUNNELS THAT I WAS IN FOR A TREAT . . AFTER AN HOUR OF TRIAN RIDIN WE MADE IT TO OUR STOP AND MET UP WITH KONGO MAC CREW . WE WALKED FOR LIKE 30 MIN AND I WASNT READY FOR ANY WALKIN . IF YOU REALLY KNOW ME YOULL KNOW I DONT WALK TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STREET IF I DONT HAVE TO . LESSON LEARNED I HAD TO LOSE SOME WIEGHT AND GET IN SHAPE . MY TRIP WAS GOING TO BE FOR ALMOST A MTH SO I BETTER GET MY SHIT TOGETHER . IT STARTED FUCKED UP . THE AIRLINE LOST MY BAGS AND THE CHANGE FROM AMERICAN DALLOR TO EURO SLAPPED ME HARD IN THE FACE . WE MADE IT TO OUR PLACE OF STAY BAGNOLET FRANCE NICE AREA HUMBLE PEOPLE . NICE CAFES . AFTER 6 DAYS THE PEOPLE WOULD SAY HI AND BYE WE LEARNED SOME WORDS AND I KINDA FELT EVERY ONE KNEW WE WERENT FROM AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD . the weather was ok i got sick ass soon as i got there . i guess it was all the cigarettes and burger king combos for 10 years like i said boot camp . other then that painting was good i did like 6 to 7 burners and many throw ups around the city . our trip was short but at best i met some awosome writers that for years ive always wanted to meet . like colors , disco , kongo, lazoo, custy, rest, moon .the language was a little trouble but writer disco helped me out at best being puerto rican raised in france we spoke the best we could . over all our language was graffiti and we all understood it well . i also met a great dude swift guad a french mc who spoke some spanish . he amazed me with his mc abilities even if i didnt understand it but it sounded really good . we all learned some words and they also learned some words . i wont say but it was always funny . there will be more visits to france and the french west indies . i am now part of a french familia called NARVA LOW ! THANKS A MIL FOR OPENING THE DOORS TO MY NEW HOME ! MORTEL ! MELANGE 167!!!

i for got to say some thing really personal im really greatful for the trip i learned how american i was . and used to the conforts of home and the american way . i realized how you can do so much with so little. i felt bad at first how i would be pissed that i couldnt eat how i eat hahaha and learned that just some thing simple was good . im back home and kept with the diet i started in france . france ! boot camp!

Sabah pics up


Here is some pics of our Sabah trip as promised. Seen in the group pic below,is our host of the trip Adrian from 76th street tattoo,first I would like to really thank him for his wonderful hospitality, Never have I felt this kind of friendliness from a new friend , thank you so much.And yes, we did 2 tattoos during the hols. The Iban inspired design was pulled off by Shawn, totally freehanded, and did i mention that its a cover up?? Sitting in the chair is non other then Mr Edmund Fung, a celebrity model in Kota Kinabalu.Further down you see a thigh piece of Lotus, this is a collaboration by all 4 of us. Kudos to Sharon Liew for being such a good sitter for this 5 hrs tattoo, I guess the rest of the colours have to be done by Adrian. You can do it!Once again , I would like to thank everyone for making this trip such a wonderful one. Looking forward to see you guys again! Get well soon for your ligament injury Adrian.
