Speed was a trip. Like, in person he was a whole fuxxing weird ball of anxiety and tension. It was uncomfortable to be around the guy.
The best was when he told me knocked Roy Jones jr out in Golden Gloves as a kid. he then threatened to do the same to Kozik. I think I might have actually laughed in his face when he said that.
Jared's type work has only gotten slightly better over the years.
Speed is still dead. I'd be impressed if Speed came back from the dead to insult your new posters, Jared. That would be totally amazing.
FACE MAZN FROM DZEAD! KTHBAI
Horrorlarious. Totally funny.

The really ironic thing is that Speed threatend to have me killed by Crips and I'm still alive and he died a cripple.
I know how wrong that was.
Proof Jimbo kicks all your punk asses.

They took the cock out in photoshop and added a microphone. Oldest trick in the book.
HAHA FUCKERS J-I-M-B-O
He was also good at talking himself into trouble. I tell you what though, because of him I got to speak with Kozik by telephone for the first time. So like, I kind of owe my friendship with Frank to Speed.
Speed's posters were not all that good. Not to me anyway. Some of them were i guess. Not as good as he would have had you believe though.
He was all about the hustle and business side of this. What he lacked in skill he made up for in his ability to talk himslef into deals.
The ironic thing is that both Speed and Jared made/make good posters. Speed had some issues, and acted out (from what I understand) as a result of them.
I don't think there's anything ironic about Speed passing away though . . .
What a backhanded "apology" with a qualifier like "You can thank Jermaine for this apology". What you lack in sincerity, you make up for as a complete asshole.
Jared,
You can thank Jermaine for this apoloogy. Yer other work is cool, I especially like the roots, and I'm very sorry I got personal in my attack, must've been a deadline night, or just green eyed envy. Anyway, please accept my apology and come visit my website anytime and say hello
The name of the site is gigposters, but we have always described it as "gigposters, flyers and handbills from around the world". Plenty of room for all.
Very nasty, Mr SPEED. You should study that list of names youve mentioned previously of artists you admire and notice how professional they are in public comments. I cannot imagine an EMEK or Bryan Ewing or Jermaine ROgers posting anything like what you just posted. Nasty!
~che~ :(
it's allright trucker, thats just the kind of immature response i thought i'd get from him.
speed, i hope someone at that successful "poster design and record company design company" does a spellcheck for your retarded ass. you suck and i wouldnt even wipe my ass with your posters.
OK fuck head. I have time because a have a successful poster design and record company design company I own. See I own it cause I spent many years working my ass of in an art medium I love dearly, poster art. So it frustrates when I see something thar took no time at all, is completely devoid of ANY style. Yer a punk ass kid and you call yerself a poster artist. Yer a flier maker, their's a difference. Sorry, gotta get back to designing my Crystal Method show, you know, come up with asn original artistic concept and then try to translate it visually (and hand print, not run down like a wuss to the copy store). lil Punk Ass bitch
i meant to add a thanks to matt in the earlier post. i'll send you a poster if you don't have one. email me.
thanks matt.

Billy sure has great teeth for a punk. I don't think you can be truly punk until you've suffered through a lifetime of painful dentistry and a humiliating smile (see Billy Childish).
aw speed, i don't talk shit about your shitty posters. i'll be the first one to admit its not the greatest, maybe if i had all the time you spend writing comments about how badass you are and about how everybody else sucks i could have made it better.
