Can I use a Word that’s already taken? (Graffiti Name Discussion)

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Video outlining my opinions on choosing words to write that are already used by others. There are some instances where it matters other times where it doesn't...and other times where people are overdramatic about it. At the end of the day its up to you but my best word of advice would be to observe what happens around you in your scene when you start writing your word.

    Back in the day (early 1990's) one of my boy's gave me my writing name. To this day I still have to deal with new kids trying to rock my name. Till I saw your video I didn't really know why. I have been on tons of freights up and down the west coast, have been in a couple of graffiti magazines (remember those), and have been active dropping burners and doing productions with my crew all these years. If you google my writing name most of the clean funk styles are mine. After seeing your video, I somewhat get it. I'm old school and don't really like putting up my own stuff on the internet. Anything you find that's mine has been put up by others (it's like .5% of what I have done over the years). And maybe that's the problem. Back when I first started, having flix (pictures) of your stuff was a sure fire way of getting caught for everything you did. I didn't catch on to placing thing anonymously on the web as it was new at the time. There was always roomers by other writers that police run internet searches with local graffiti names to try and match your style to build cases (hay, it was the early 2000's). Like most old school writers of my generation we keep to our tight nit crews.

I only want a 4 or 5 letter name. the options are actually very limited. forming a nice sounding 4 letter word with some of the good letters after 45 years is not so easy. or you can just write kpotsreaoooo.

He was just more committed and also used it for his DJ name. Even though I started writing it first, it didn't matter. Sometimes the guys that come after do more with the name. Got to meet him and he was a good dude.

Maybe its more than one writer using that name since it’s a pretty common word. I’ve bet most of the commenters on this video have been crossed out and lined by toy.

    I don't care if someone is using my name in another city as long as it ain't in the city I live in. This one cat that follows me on IG has my name but I think he lives in the UK. I noticed that his style changed and looked very very VERY exactly like mine except he added weird lines and nonsense arrows. I told him "this looks exactly like my tag. But hey as long as we all get up right?". Point is don't fucking bite style. Ever. If he lived in the same city as me then I'd handle it a different way. Stop writing my name or get your ass stomped.
