People who tried this
βSo I tried my hand at being an artist. I went to the Major Deegan on 230th Street in the Bronx and put my very first piece up on a wall. I was proud because I knew that I had officially submitted my talents to the universal culture of Street art. The next day while riding in my motherβs car, I eagerly pointed out my artistic genius to my boy. And then I saw that someone had written βToyβ over my work. Reality set in and I made another lateral transfer and became an MC.β
βIm scared because i didnt use a mask while using it, there were a lot of people at the time but I did it at a corner of the crowd where no one could've seen me. I'm also scared of the fact that a hidden camera mightve caught me doing the act, but the only defense I have is that the graffiti I did was relatively small, it could fit in the palm of my hand and if there was a cctv, i don't think it could have seen it, cause I looked around before writing and there was no cctvs from what i seen not beyond 80 feet.β
