S-BAHN SCHÖN EINEN AUFGEDAMPFT



OSMAN DTS / HCCB

BUZZ


Worte sind Silber, Schweigen ist Gold. Osman hält es so. Auf unsere Frage nach einem Text, schickte er uns sechs Gedanken von anderen Writern zurück.

»I’m a normal person who found graffiti as a young kid,(...) and discovered a new underworld where money was not the most important thing and friendship was the main reason to be there.« VINO

»Du kannst machen was du willst. Du kannst dir nur selber im Weg stehen.« SWEETUNO

»Meine Kunst wird in einem Satz mit Kriminalität, Vergewaltigung und Hundekot genannt.« RAZOR

»Man muss der Konkurrenz immer wieder durch Größe und Qualität zeigen, dass sie keine Konkurrenz ist.« KATS

»Finding out that the graffiti scene is just a smaller cross section of society too, that has a similar relation between smart and dumb people.« OTIS ONE

»Everything has been said, but not by everyone.« MOSES
