Hamydeez's definitions

dez

One of NYC's greatest graffiti legends. Now known as "DJ Kay Slay". Now.. this is when he was dope, he has obviusly sold out now to the top 40 rap culture, but before all that he was a true subway crusher. He was in the legendary movie "Style Wars" 1982. A legend, and a hero. Peace

Damn... I give my props to all that cats on Style wars, Skeme, Dez, Trap, Revolt, Zephyr, Min One, Dondi, Shy 147, Iz, Cap, etc, they are all legends and should never be forgotten.

etch

Acid Etch bath is an acidic solution used by graff writers in mops and other assorted markers to create a handstyle on a glass surface, in which the acid eats into the window, making that handstyle/tag unbuffable.

I went up and down down market street and etched the shit outta every building window I saw

Kurtis Blow

First rapper to ever go "mainstream". Represented the 80's old shcool hiphop scene, when shit was true and all was good and when it was cool to call hip hop, "rap". Nas even stole his song "If I Ruled the World"

People Under The Stairs

Original hip hop duo from Mid City LA. Consisting of Emcee's Double K & Thes One. They make some of the best music that has come out in the "new school" All there music is sampled and mixed straight from 12"'s and fuck the drum machines. They definetly keep it real and to the truest essence of hiphop.

Damn every track on "Question in the Form of an Answer", "Or Stay Tunes", "O.S.T.", "The Next Step" are good, and style beyond any others.

wildstyle

Don't listen to the person oboves definition. It's not being crazy. That's ridiculous. Wildstyle is a legendary movie from the 80's representing the birth of hip hop, the NYC subculture, and the 3 elements of hip hop. Breaking, Writing, and rapping. Wildstyle/wild styles is also when graff writers stray away from doing pieces in straight letters and they go all out and go crazy with their shit.

I did a mad wild style top to bottom on the 6 line last night, hopefully it will be running on monday.
