Skum
photo taken from some random girl’s blog, Suzy 234
Maybe I am getting old & out of touch but I have kinda thought illegal Columbus graffiti bombing had strongly decreased.
Seeing Skum replacing PBJ as the posterboy for the news’ annual spring graffiti hysteria report pretty much confirms not much is going on in my mind.
Don’t get me wrong, Skum is really amusing to me because the moniker conjures the backdrop in like an 80’s vigilante movie or someone who might’ve threatened Crocodile Dundee or the robot from Short Circuit. So the idea of Skum written on things prolly should bother people.
Anyway…ladies & gentlemen!

ASK BSA/IOK=Graffiti isn’t Art Coverboy
Some dood named Russell Jones(no odb) wrote a book called Inside The Graffiti Culture:Why Graffiti isn’t Art.
Jones used Ohio graffiti writer Ask as his coverboy.
Here is the Amazon.com description:
Product Description
Illegal graffiti is disconnected from standard modes of visual production in fine art and design. The primary purpose of illegal graffiti for the graffiti writer is not the visual product, but “getting up.” Getting up involves writing or painting one’s name in as many places as possible for fame. The elements of risk, freedom and ritual unique to illegal graffiti serve to increase camaraderie among graffiti writers even as an individual’s fame in the graffiti subculture increases. When graffiti has moved from illegal locations to the legal arenas of fine art and advertising; risk, ritual and to some extent, camaraderie, has been lost in the translation. Illegal graffiti is often erroneously associated with criminal gangs. Legal modes of production using graffiti-style are problematic in the public eye as a result. I used primary and secondary interviews with graffiti writers in this book. My art historical approach differed from previous writers who have used mainly anthropological and popular culture methods to examine graffiti. This analysis enabled me to demonstrate that illegal graffiti is not art.

Rappers and R+B Singers Answer Jasmine Suillivan’s Ode to Property Destruction
I have been huge fan of the domestic dispute R+B song going back to Sparkle and R. Kelly’s “Be Careful” all the way up to Kell’s “Real Talk”. The newest wrinkle in the domestic dispute genre is the irrational woman doing something illegal song. I don’t know if Carrie Underwood’s “Before He Cheats” put some influence out there on the industry but being a crazy bitch has really sprung its wings whether its “Fight A Man” by Rihanna or my current favorite song “Bust Your Windows” by Jasmine Suillivan. Ms. Suillivan basically sings about how she gonna vandalize some doods car. The video is kinda tame compared to Carrie Underwood’s. Jazmine never really fucks up the car. The closet thing she does is shake up a can of spraypaint in front of doods fake Basquiat paintings and then put a line thru them. Maybe MTV has a double standard when it comes to black woman vandalizing vs. Country stars.

As disappointed as I may be with the video. One thing Miss Underwood didn’t have is response jawns. Trey Songs, Skillz, and Gorilla Zoe have all weighed in about how they feel about a woman fucking up their whip. Trey Song’s has him singing overthe instrumental letting her know what happen when you mess with a players ride, while Skillz and Zoe prefer to have a dialogue with the deranged R+B singer. Skillz is funny cause he complains about not having insurance. My favorite response record is this remix with the Dream. Cause he tells her its dumb shit and makes fun of her for breaking the window on the side of the car she sits in.
