that is some nice work
your a krapy designer got any thing better to say than Ego rhino spray paint
you really put out alot of bullshit designs through the years dam you, your like picasso
and the grafitti around south river, mediocur
take a lesson from DAIM you can afford it,
I hope that you are at least a generous person for all you ve been granted, make a nice donation to Care or Unicef this holiday season.
the sole purpose that im buying the game is because it is the only graffiti based game that is out there in the market (besides jetset).The lack of player creativity that which makes art just that art.The main buyers are writers and thats what should have been the main focuse on instead of The 17 year old boy that lacks the knowledge of the culture and is simply going to think of it as another prince of persia and the warriors.What we (90% of the writers that are going to buy this game) needed was something that gave us the rush of doing a thowie on a heaven having cops chace you thew alleys and runing high on adreanline with a bookbag of krayons/caps/and makers.Doing a piece that others will see online and can comment on.Theres just So much more you could have done.Making it real i guess wasnt a priority but hey maybe theres a wirter named train out there that likes prince of persia and and doing 4 types of styles on "x".Oh Yea and please dont think cuz you sow style wars one to many times your into graff writer.lol and yes you are a krapy designer i olny see your clothes on White people but then again your white.
wat up yo tha graffiti show on the westside was crazy i got my blackbook singed by over 50 graf artist an dim happy cuz i saw lady pink i was in shock when are u going 2 have another 1 mark???
Mark- Don't even worry about them hataz... thats jus what they are... hataz you do you and you will be successful. I love your designs and even your logo. I have been to the factory once. I came all the way from warminster, pa to come see your factory. Good luck in the future. Stay true to you.
hey man! dont listen to all this shit about white wearing your shit...i see every day thousends of colerd people wearing it! game is k not my favorite type but nice idea...nice watches by da way! keep up, peace!
lol owned!1
Marc,
I am not one to ride someone's ego because they are famous, but you truly have made a difference. You took the true urban art form, and made a serious contribution to it, and made a fortune doing so. You do YOU! HipHop folks do the same thing everytime an album drops, why do they do it??? For the love of their talent, just so happens your talent is elsewhere, people should embrace that. For decades our urban youth has fought the laws that be on many of this subjects, and not once have we cam e this close on the subject of Graf. We are up in Museums, Clothing (Thanks), stores, sneakers and now games (about time thanks!). I can do nothing other than tip my hat to you and the creative team who keep these projects going strong. Life is what you make it, and your contribution has the colors we all have fought with our family, peers and strangers about. Why do we do Graf? Because it is our form of art. Now we can point and say look... we are everywhere.
I GOT THE GAME FINALY, HAD TO GO TO 4 STORES IN TOWN TO FINALY GET A COPY.
BUT IT WAS WORTH IT BECAUSE I MANAGED TO GET THE CARDBOARD TRANE PROMO THE STORE HAD.
NOT AN ARTIST, BOUGHT THE GAME FROM A GAME POINT OF VIEW, AND IT'S GREAT.
ONLY THING THAT SUCKS IS THAT THE AUTOGRAPH TOUR IS COMING TO A MILITARY BASE, AND I CAN'T GET IN. I'M WILLING TO DRIVE THE 6 HOURS FROM PORTLAND TO SEATTLE, BUT WON'T BE ABLE TO GET IN.
ANYONE KNOW OF A WAY TO GET AROUND THIS?
BY THE WAY, WHY THE HELL ARE PEOPLE WASTING THERE TIME TO LOG ONTO A MAN'S WEBSITE, AND TYPE THAT THEY DON'T LIKE HIM?
DO YOU 2 HAVE BAD BLOOD? CAN'T SEE THE POINT IN WASTING YOUR LIFE ON SOMEONE YOU DON'T KNOW, NOR EVEN HAVING A REASON TO HATE SOMEONE BECAUSE OF THE CLOTHES OR VIDEO GAMES THEY MAKE.
AND FINALY, THANK YOU TO MARK ECKO(IF HE'S STILL CHECKING THE BLOG)
I'VE BEEN WEARING YOUR CLOTHES SINCE THEY FIRST STARED SELLING OUT HERE (PORTLAND,OR) BACK AROUND 99.
COMPLEX IS ONE OF THE GREATEST MAGIZINES OUT THERE FOR HIP-HOP AND EVERY OTHER AREA IT COVERS.

Marc,
I am trying to contact you on behalf of the East River Development Alliance (ERDA), a nonprofit located in Queens. First, I would like to congratulate you on your court victory yesterday in regards to the enforcement of the portion of the anti-graffiti law that targets people our age.
In addition, I am writing because I would like to offer you and the students involved in the case a unique opportunity. ERDA is hoping to get some of the streets here in Queens that are close to the public schools repainted, because today the children in the area must walk several blocks along some dirty murals on their way to school. We are working with some corporate sponsors in this regard, but as soon as the paint is dry, we would like to invite some graffiti artists here to display their art on the buildings permanently. Please contact me if you would be interested.
Thanks,
Sonia Siu

Marc,
I love your Bonds baseball poll. I have an idea for you that is fun and should make impact your bottom line. I believe that the asterisk vote will win out. When it does...do a SF* baseball cap with your rhino logo on the back. I think this tribute to Bonds would be fitting and should sell for a mint. Make the asterisk with a little bling (fake crystals for most and one with a real diamond and sell it to some Hollywood type/or rap Mogul.
Good luck and thanks for the fun.
