I've been producing music since I was 15, from Techno to Hip-Hop. I've also played guitar and bass guitar since I was 13, keyboards and piano since 11. I started out as a freestyle artist in '03, but over time have moved to almost exclusively producing for other artists, culminating in my own personal style of production that some call "Tech Hop" for it's usage of very digital sources, as well as my own sampling style of micro-sampling original tracks. - Add me and support the underground

Story behind the song
Graffiti artists chased onto the tracks at trainyards by overzealous security personnel. Artists thrown into jail for long term sentences. Artists shot by T.O.Y. taggers with no Soul and no experience, no artistic vision. Graf is dying...not graffiti, but true Artistic Graf. We're being left with only the Legal Eagle Graf artists and Legends to represent what it once was, while the Street Artist is stifled and "killed" at every turn, whether by gangs of talentless taggers with no respect for R.I.P. murals, or security guards with guns, or the governments "crackdown" on graffiti. Graf is dying.
Lyrics
Simple slick cyclical, Slip sniffle in sick stipple, Dimple dots and a dash in six fuckin' syllables, Bic fillable wit ink spillable... Fit a full stash of killable flippables. I feel pitiful. Rapid rap tragic attract addicts, And fast sadists, Collapse fadistic synapse magick, With caps added. I grasp at it, I once had it but now saddened, Flattened by the world spinning around Saturn! Art is a part from the start, And no chart toppin' start stoppin', Dart poppin' 25 caliber artist, Has heart to bar me from droppin' it smart. So get a cart and collect these tarts, Before I bury ya, Bart. I'm that fast able, Cats cradle blast cable, Bomb artist with the tax table, Smash fables and myths, Legends and Riffs, Skype or the skiff, Ain't no tykes on my spliff, T.O.Y. Boys remainin' stiff...
