Friday November 6th: graffiti battle Spray the Can

SPECIAL GUEST, the famous old skool graffiti writer: BLADE (king of kings NYC)

21:00-01:00 @ Fusion / hiphopcafe4elementz, Marnixstraat 285

During ‘Spray the can battle’ 20 competitors are going head to head in a graffiti/ graphic art battle. All competitors will receive an empty blank Montana spray can, which will be used as the canvas. They have to paint, write, tag, sticker or shape the can as creative as the human mind allows it possible. Montana will provide the spray cans and a broad selection of markers. Any other items such as stencils, stickers or paint are the competitors own responsibility. The spray cans will be judged by a professional jury and the winner receives a goody bag and a cash price of €150,-. During the battle, dj’s will spin the dopest and phattest rap, soul and funk.
