The first time I met this guy was 15years ago. Back then, he was known as Phyerman, a member of OAC. Hip Hop enthusiast, promoter and guerilla. Nowadays, affectionately, known as SKOPE ONE..... master Graffiti artist from Singapore.

On Sunday, Skope was featured on the local Malay newspaper for his achievements in the international scene, especially after his return from Barcelona. From what I heard, he was very much liked and respected for his creativity, talent and humility. Well, that's the international scene. Unlike here at home, people like him are still stuggling to be recognised as artist. Things are definitely much better than decades ago. Some willing parties have openly accept these artistes while others are just trying to cash-in their talents or abuse the good nature of these guys. However, knowing where they came from and them, graduating from the SCHOOL OF HARD KNOCKS, I guess nothing can pull them any lower than where these guys have been before. To the corporate world who have tried diminishing these artistes, the jokes are on you. The world is watching. While we get up and keep on fighting, you'll just hide behind the corporate bars..... with a plastic heart and empty mind.

SKOPE ONE and the ARTKORE Industry....... I give my utmost respect to you and your crew for sticking by each other, and not letting anyone or anytwo bastardize your beliefs.

Fewiiitttt..................!!!!
