    I remember JA saying that Joz and Easy were kings of the streets when it came to bombing which is true. however, he doesn't give himself enough credit. he is the longest-lasting street bomber in the history of Bombing period. Also, he has bombed with every generation of graffiti writers from old to new. A lot of people don't know this. I know him personally and he will not give himself enough credit for what he's done!!!

    i started writing in like 1999 but across the country where BTM/3a started. our vibe was a little different out here. SF bus flow and hollows had a huge influence up here because in those days you would get buffed before the morning commute (these days, everything is smashed). met all kinds of dudes throughout my years. really studied the history of the guys before me. i don't really participate anymore but the love for the sport never died. some of my favorite memories are just wandering around the yards with someone who shares the same kind of passion for this stuff as i do, with someone who can hold a genuine conversation. it would be rad to walk around NYC with someone who knows the cuts. appreciate you taking the time to wander around and bench etc. for us. crazy seeing JA still so active..forreal. when i visit NYC i get way more hype than i should when i see OG's still smashing. i feel like it's honestly been a renaissance lately (not that JA ever slowed down).

    Let me say something… I was born in 76 from the L.E.S and I have a brother and sister 13 and 12 years older than me who weren’t allowed to go outside, unless they took me with them … I never comment on Graff and I’m not a Graffiti Writer but Growing Up in the Streets I never saw anyone with more tags in EVERY BORO AND HOOD as JA … That JA inside the bomb was everywhere… Then early 90’s I started seeing it in movies on the West Coast … So when it comes to ups , I don’t think anyone’s touching him

    @The Graffiti Wanderer: Big humble shout out to JA XTC MOB! JA is a super cool ass cat, educated, great taste for food, and humorous too. I chilled at his cool apartment, and went on a couple of street/train tunnel bombs with him out in Spanish Harlem back in the dayzzzz. And after all the trance music came to a screeching halt, so to speak, he told me to push XTC crew. I trusted him with my life, and I usually don't do that with someone I just met. He, like me, is a dedicated, live graffiti writer. I'm still ACTIVE with the sticker and paint marker game out in Los Angeles, California but I'm about to drop a series of street bombs soon. I have just been too busy with college and gonna get even busier because I'm transferring to the University level for Fall semester 2024. That just being said, but I'm still going to squeeze in some time to, in stages, "tear up" Los Angeles California like a school of red-bellied piranhas! ("S0e" P2D, XTC 4 Life, baby!)

      @@davidp4902 getting up isn’t as impressive when you don’t have to work a 9 to 5 and your not worried about getting busted because daddy will bail you out. Most of us get ropped and aren’t able to pay our rent. We literally put everything on the line when we get up. Trust fund writers look goofy coming from their gated community to a low income neighborhood just to vandalize it. It is what it is.
