lol at biting zombys (the writer) name. Caused me a bit of a headfuck when i got into this kinda music coming from a graffiti background.
/offtopic but this forum is actually nicer than puregraffiti (and the graffiti scene in general) - that place people will rip your work to shreds if its not amazing + you cant be heavily influenced by another artist or you get called out as a biter.

I was a bit confused by this. I didnt really know what he meant by the nicking his tag thing?! Did he graff something else other than Zomby then? Also love that he just ranted about people biting other peoples styles etc, although he didnt actually say totally nicking somebody elses track was a bad thing.

"Zomby" (not the dubstep producer) is one of the most well known artists in the UK graffiti scene.
Our Zomby got his name from him. /\
..Then claimed in that thread that he knew the guy (not even denying knowledge)
...after complaining that other people were ripping him off by using a similar name.
......and then went on to be the biggest biter in dubstep.

Yeah I know who Zomby the writer is, Im from South London. DiabolicalDubStars, FireBugZ all that jazz. I just thought it was weird he would start a thread about biting a name/style......and then confess to nicking his name from somebody else. Very contradictory. While also saying that if anybody nicked his tag he'd hit them with a paint can.lol.

Ahh i thought you were confused about the whole writer thing.
You were actually confused by how someone can be as stupid as Zomby
