Cool vid. I used to work with IZ at Laguardia. I once’s asked him who he thought was good from back then. I ran a whole bunch of names to him and one after the other, he put most of them down with the exception of Lee, blade and maybe a couple of others. But I vividly remember him praising blade as being one of the best. That’s saying a lot from one of the most prolific writers ever.

Comet can hide a pilot in that mustache. TRUE KINGS

At approximately the 2:25 mark of the video, Blade shows a picture. On the window above his name is "JJS". I know that guy.

Its awesome to hear tagging wasnt really associated with hip hop I'm tired of hearing that b.s.

While Comet was doing "Bubble Letters, Tracy 168 , his forefather was revolutionizing the modern graffiti with his own "Wild Style aesthetic to this day seen as the template for the whole genre -Comet is a glorified toy, lucky he had Blade as his partner -
