The title Kill 2 Succeed is derived from the name of Los Angeles' most original graffiti crews, K2S, of which both Big Sleeps and Defer are members. This crew is historically known for giving Los Angeles a unique brand of graffiti lettering, heavily influenced by traditional Placaso styles, which were born on the streets of LA and date as far back as the 1920s. This book features a wide range of lettering forms from blocks, robotic text, script, calligraphic styles and various hybrid forms of lettering that both authors have practiced and developed since childhood. Although these styles have a long and storied history, in recent years they have become more widely recognized, accepted and influential. With this book you now have a rare glimpse into this once secretive world of lettering. 52 Pages
