Not even a hurricane could stop the urge and burning desire that I had to do the baddest and most incredible painting of all time. One day I got together with Riff 170 he called me and asked when I would be painting again, we talked about new styles and then we hooked up together and we went out to bomb. Riff170 was one of the best so you know that putting together so much talent just inspired both of us to do the unthinkable. And we did, I painted a whole car by myself with black and silver stripes and a sizzling 3-D effect while Riff 170 conquered another car close by.

Everyone there just gasped when they saw it on the Number 3 line parked right at the end of the street in their face. Stan 153 came over and said that it was impossible but he saw it for himself. All the other writers that showed up wanted to tag this museum car of mine but I told them all to stay away and to paint on their own car. Eventually this turned out to be one of the single most important paintings in the history of Aerosol Art.

Shortly after that painting was done I was approached by Hugo Martinez of the United Graffiti Artists, and asked if I would join the group. Later on Phase 2 told me he saw my stuff up on the trains and told Hugo Martinez that I should be initiated into the group of masters. The United Graffiti Artists painted on canvas and had the talent to be recognized throughout the world. Soon after fame came in the form of gallery exhibitions, television shows, books, video and other media exposure.
