The Gangs of Bank City

FUK in this instance stands for ‘Fucked Up Kids’ and is represented by some of the best writers and artists in the country. They are not the cats writing for fucking sprite and DC, but they are talented, dedicated artists nonetheless. The so called ‘gang’ is a bunch of kids who werent that into cricket but always took an interest in politics, so they decided to write the most expressive word they could think of and hit the corporate world with the very word which embodies the entire ethos of the capitalist system. I bet you ABSA will feel nothing when they ‘Fuck’ you with high interest rates and bank charges and tempt you with bullshit loans. In fact, that is their business is it not? Hold your soul tight because the bank is the fucking god of the new world. I bet the boss-cock at ABSA whispered the word ‘FUCK’ as he walked into work that morning and saw that some ignorant gang-banger had peed on his front door.

Haha,
Riaan ol’ chap, if you did the tiniest bit of research on FUKKREW and the work they do, you would feel like a turd about your previous comment…

All I see is a tag on a wall. Please tell me you see something else? Nothing nice to look at. No message. No point being made. 7 letters.

That’s the point that I am trying to make, gents. To you, Bear and Anon, it must mean the world… but to me, and everyone else who does not know who they are or what they do. It’s a tag. Period. There’s no message behind it to inform or inspire.

I never questioned any ones motives or dissed the work they do. From the start I condemned the act. I even mentioned that I do appreciate great graffiti. I bet that when I read whatever it is they do, I’ll think better of them. I still condemn the act though.

Be so kind as to blow their horn and give me a link. I tried Googling fukkrew, but all I get is a link to Mahala…

Yes, I googled it. Have you heard of google? It’s this really incredible technology company that indexes the internet. This helps you to find information quickly and easily, you know, for when researching stuff. You should try it some time!

Your comments are about as helpful as that tag, Bear. I’ve said I know nothing about it and asked you to enlighten me (and the next person who stumbles across this). I’m starting to doubt your perception skills… Thanks for not shedding ANY light on the subject.

Hey @Anon and @Bear I’m in London and I just googled FUKKREW, guess what.. the first 5 hits where Mahala of which the top hit was this article then the sixth was some random Myspace and then a plethora of nonsense threads. This shows you how that tag on the wall is and always will be just 7 letters to the meaning of nothing but a few and if their URL was properly tagged even I up here could have quickly been brought up to speed on these cats and I could have joined you in dissing @RiaanP perhaps.

But no,

gathering from your level of belittling conversation with @RiaanP I presume you still think tagging as the most anti establishment thing to do.
Instead of pissing yourself why don’t you enlighten us and tell us who the fuck is FUKKREW?

i do not think their works are meant for the internet and if you really want to see the amount of work they have put in then keep your eyes wide open when in the streets of JHB or CT…
