I am honored to be invited to this August 13-15 event! Big thanks to my homie @tameartz for building a strong foundation for the future of this culture! @withregram • @tameartz Alright y’all the wait is over here’s the final contestant for my Graff Character Battle happening August Friday the 13th 7pm-12am at the Philly Expo Center! I introduce y’all to my brother and friend BX Legend @fustamps Rios Pa’Lante!! Rios was born and raised in Bronx NY during the 80’s. Growing up in the BX was no walk in the park during those days. It was his environment and family that made him into the legend he is today. At a very early age his mother would draw characters to keep young Rios still. This sparked a passion for the arts. During his teenage years he was heavily influenced by Graffiti artists such as Futura and the TATSCRU. This along with his Brother (BX LEGEND OPEY MEGATRAHN) pushed RIOS to start hitting walls with his characters creating a name for himself. The past 10 years he has become a well known TOY Designer. Designing the Fu-Stamp Crew toys which I may add sell out every drop. This competition just got real. You don’t want to miss this event. Ticket info is on my bio. Go and get them before they sell out. This battle will be judged by the legends @renardkelley @pfunkdabeast and @madwriters78 TAMEARTZ for the CULTURE! #TAMEARTZ #afatti #afattiphillyopen #dabronx #newyork #artists #art #graffiti #streetart #hiphop #culture #worldwide #breakingevent #dopeness #legend #igers #2024olympics #bboys #battle #characters (at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSFl4FynkZo/?utm_medium=tumblr
