Quote (MashPotato) I believed that DJing technically came first - you have to have the music before people can dance to it, and you have to have the music before people can rap over it. That's what I had thought. i think its true that hip hop started with Kool Herc's parties, but if you ask which element came first, than i think graffiti coz there were graffiti artists before there was kool herc

we are writers, if you call writers artists you are calling all the toys artists.

Having the title of "artist" doesn't have anything to do with your skill level. If someone practices an art, even if they're bad at it, they are called an artist. Just saying the word "artist" does not imply proficiency. Calling yourself a writer would mean you only paint letters and graffs are more than that. I can see where the idea could have come from. Someone thinks, "Letters are just symbols and pictures are just symbols [A=C:B=C::A=B] means Letters are Pictures, so I'm a writer because I paint symbols." But as you can see the flaw in that is because writing is a specific form of drawing. All that solved, we're left with the fact that it's acceptable, possibly even an Element itself, for words to be used incorrectly/differently/creatively as a staple of the culture. I can accept that graffs want to call themselves writers, or that break-boys don't like the word dance anymore, but I'm still going to call you an artist if you're trying your best.

Secrets of the trade, my friend. Improvising cuteness is one of the best defenses.
