Since debuting with ‘Dago Mentality’ and ‘The Sagas of Klashnekoff’ back in 2004 this Hackney born MC has been collecting fans on both the underground Hip-Hop scene and on the mainstream (in the shape of The Arctic Monkeys & Pete Doherty) with style of urban documentary delivered with a unique brand of wit and wordplay that is a devastating as his name would suggest. Classic singles like ‘Murda’ and all three of his full length albums, including 2007’s ‘LionheartL Tussle With The Beast’ and last year’s ‘Back To The Sagas’ have been critically acclaimed and it is obvious why this man is now considered a pioneer paving the way for many Hip-Hop & Grime MCs who have followed.

"F**K THA BUFF!!!!" Getting Rid of Graffiti (Rare 1992 Book Scan)


It has been said before that a healthy Graffiti scene reflects a cultural city. London had in the past a very vibrant and unique Graffiti style, in the 70's with a fashion Skin Head and Punk graffiti and later the "New York Graffiti". To outsiders it would appear that those days are long gone. Nowadays with mandatory 18 month Prison sentences, wipe clean panels and texting the local council will get a buff team out within 24hrs, will it ever be the same?


Getting Rid Of Graffiti - 1992 Rare Technical Textbook on the Removal of Graffiti
This book is an Industry insiders book looking at the various techniques, all the photos are from London and from about 1988.

The Kool Skool Interviews South London Writer Dicer TSM Author of New "Steel Canvas" 1987-1995 London Underground Train Graffiti Book


Dicer TSM

The Kool Skool Interviews South London Writer Dicer TSM Author of "Steel Canvas" 1987-1995 London Underground Train Graffiti book



"Steel Canvas" 1987-1995 London Underground Train Graffiti book cover

Dicer is an Old School South London Graffiti Writer, who is still representing the culture, by painting sick Burners, and giving back in the form of his amazing new Self Published "Steel Canvas" 1987-1995 London Underground Train Graffiti book. The book is crammed full of over 250 photographs of rare and unseen Train flicks from the golden era of London Graffiti. Dicer also known for rocking the infamous Battersea/Vauxhall/PatMore London Hall of Fame, took a moment to talk to The Kool Skool about his soon to be Classic Book, and legacy in the London Graffiti Scene.


Dice District Line in 1991


Dicer 2010

Hi Dicer, thanks a lot for coming by, for those not familiar with Dicer, could you tell us a little it about yourself?


Well, I've been writing graffiti since around 1985, the story follows along the usual lines of the American invasion of hip-hop into the uk, and myself starting graffiti. Although, I guess I am somewhat different to other London writers in that I didn't go to school with lots of writers and get into painting that way. Instead I simply went out on my own, racked paint, and did it by myself for my own gratification for many years. In 1987, I chose the name Dice, at the time it was more for convenience as 4 lettered names were popular and easy to write. Although it’s always been a bit difficult to bend and shape the letters too much as there's not much you can do with a D. In the early 90’s I battled for supremacy with my pieces on the District & Circle Lines writing Dicer/Diser, by the mid 90s my crew TSM (The Shag Masterz) were competing with the likes of DDS on the trains, in the late 90s disbanded. I painted a lot with Khans STD in the early 2000’s, Since then Ive been painting “freelance” as it were, with anyone and everyone, I still get a kick out of battling people on walls.


Dicer window down flames

Being that you’re a South Londoner, and traditionally the South is often over looked in its place in Graffiti History. Why is it that people seem to sleep on the South?

I guess it’s because historically there were no big halls of fame in the South to attract attention, but also the Holy Grail of train lines (the met) didn’t run down South, having instead a truly underground subway didn’t help attract writers to the area.


Soge 1994

Who are some of the South London legends and stories you remember?

When writers used to hit the Buses in South London, (84-86 era), there were some very legendary writers, namely Lazy Lady, Pest, Feend 219, and Dust. It’s a shame some of them didn’t graduate on to the train scene, as they probably would have been as big as Fuel and Prime.


Early 90's top to bottom

Why should New Schoolers care about the Old School?

Well, I wouldn’t expect anyone to “care”, but they should at least know as it stops their heads getting too big! People don’t realise half the time the stuff their bragging about doing has been done a hundred times before, and better! People were doing full colour top 2 bottom wholecars in 1986, by 1987 every yard had been slapped.


"Steel Canvas" 1987-1995 London Underground Train Graffiti book inside

What made you put this book together now?

My main motivation for putting “Steel Canvas” together was just to get the photos in print, before they disappear from history. I’d lost a ton of photos from broken hard drives, and actual photos had degraded, been lost, stolen, and given away. I felt like the curator of a graff museum, and it’s my job to restore these photos for future generations. My secondary goal, was to take graffiti back to looking at photo albums and books. The internet is now so saturated with thumbnails of grainy out of focus “old school” photos, the whole meaning has been lost in translation! Having photos of old school graff in a book is a way to bring it to the people and get them talking about it – people tend to huddle around a book, whereas viewing the internet is almost always a solo pursuit.


"Steel Canvas" 1987-1995 London Underground Train Graffiti book inside

That's a really interesting way to think about it. The internet has kind of devalued and even played out the action of looking at graffiti photos, also many writers nowadays have probably never seen a painted train in traffic. I have never seen a lot of the photos in Steel Canvas, whose photos are they, are they all yours?

They are 100% all my own. Any train you see in the book I personally saw running, probably tagged the inside, and occasionally maybe had a piece next to it too! I try to make it clear in the book, that unlike a lot of other publications this is the first time that a single person has made a whole book using (only) their own photos. I think it gives the book a certain authenticity, it would of been so easy to plaster the book full of train photos from my personal archives.


Dyse

For those of the internet generation, can you explain how writers got photos of other artists?

It was a lot different back before the net. A lot of a writers status was based on rumour and reputation, not actual hard evidence. Photos of trains weren’t banded about like they are now, they were very coveted, and secret. Us later generation writers looked up to writers like Fuel, Prime, Drax, Crash, Cazbee, Hate etc. Not because what they had done (the photos didn't emerge until after the year 2000 on the net), but because we had heard stories of whole trains, top to bottoms, yard chases etc. And to us aspiring train writers, they seemed like gods! You would always meet other writers out on the lines if there was something running that day. During the time period that the book covers, I rarely saw any of the old school train photos that seem so familiar now, and are freely available on the net. Writers would arrange to meet up somewhere like Covent Garden and bring photos along and generally they would swap the ones that were bad angle shots or out of focus keeping the good ones for themselves. Unfortunately, this practice has since backfired, as a lot of the only surviving old school train photos are the ones that the writers discarded in swap meetings, due to the originals being destroyed by BTP after house raids. Over the years even these poor angle shots and out of focus shots have become more prized. So they have been color copied and duplicated to the point were the quality has suffered so much, so the piece is just a blurry blob on a bleached out train. Nowadays we are more clued up because of the internet, we can see exactly how many train pieces so and so crew or writer has done back in the day (or so we think), but we must always bare in mind that whatever you see in photos is only ever 40 - 50% of the whole story. So just imagine how big writers like Kast were in his day!


Panels sitting in Parsons early 90s

How important is it for the UK scene to support books like this?

It is important in the sense that it is “your” Subway Art! We’ve never had one, and this is as near to it as there is (at the moment).

How is Steel Canvas selling?

I am happy to say that it has sold surprisingly well. Looking back I was a bit naive to think I would only sell a handful to friends and family, I thought it may get lost in the sea of graff books out there, but people have been very supportive and I thank you all.


"Steel Canvas" 1987-1995 London Underground Train Graffiti book inside

Where can the people get a copy of Steel Canvas?

As it’s a self-published book, the amount of actual books in print are very low. The only place to buy “Steel Canvas” at the moment is from Chrome & Black, otherwise its mail order from the publishers; http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/1663511or from the website; http://www.steelcanvas.webs.com/ It retails around £25 - £30.

With the success of Steel Canvas, have you got there any more book in the works?

There are certainly more books in the works, but I can’t tell you exactly what, as I like the element of surprise!

Rare Magazine Interviews with MC Shan, DJ Cash Money & Doug E. Fresh with The Kool Skool's Shucks One + Walt "Clyde" Frazier with Paul McKenzie


MC Shan Rocking Dapper Dan Puma Suit, "Shirt King" Portrait Sweat Shirt, Gold caps, Fade & shape-up parting. Can you get more fresh in 88'?!

"For those of you who are unfamiliar with my history, I have interviewed over 200 Hip-Hop artists, B-Boys, DJs, MCs, Graffiti Writers, Producers, and Film Makers over the years, for Film, Radio, Magazines and Magazine features. After being told I "knew too much about Hip-Hop to be a writer for Touch Magazine" which described itself as "The Original UK Urban Music Magazine"????!!! In 2005 I was asked by the same Touch Magazine, to interview 3 of really influential Hip-Hop Legends in one afternoon!!! It was one of the highlights of my "Career" as a Hip-Hop Journalist (whatever that means).

I had the chance to meet their manager Grand Imperial Arkim, better known as one of the first rappers from Queensbridge, on Vinyl. Arkim was famous for his songs with Legendary Queens DJ Hot Day, he broke down some Queensbridge Rap history for me. It was a really good day, hearing MC Shan one of the funniest guys in Hip-Hop joking around with and Basketball Legend Walt "Clyde" Frazier Superstartar Pro Baller over lunch, about (his classic signature shoe Puma Clyde's aka States). "Yo how in the hell did you play Ball in them dude. I can't believe you never broke your ankle just walking in them???!" Good times, I will be editing them and many more for broadcast on The UK's Best Hip-Hop Radio station www.Sensei.fm soon!" - The Kool Skool's Shucks One ID UZN

FUNDRAISING SCREENING, Followed by a discussion with the director
Winstan Whitter and special guests

In the 1960’s Mr. Newton Dunbar came to the UK from Jamaica and founded the first
Reggae-oriented music venue’s called ‘The Four Aces Club’, which for some 33 years was
home to the most influential black music and musicians to date (Desmond Decker, Jimmy
Cliff, Count Shelly, Ann Peebles, Percy Sledge, Ben E King Billy Ocean, Bob Marley, and many
others) Despite its success it came under fire from the local Police and was forced to close its
doors in the late 90’s due to a compulsory re- possession ordered by the local Authorities to
make way for the regeneration in Hackney for the fourth coming Olympics in 2012.
