Papa Unsure Of Himself
by beehive on Jan.29, 2009, under Uncategorized
There is a serial tagger in NYC who goes by the name of Papa, and he appears to be struggling to come to grips with life and sexuality.
I found three different tags regarding Papa.
First, PaPa Loves Baby…

Then PaPa Loved Baby…

And then PaPa, because of an apparent breakup with “Baby”, finally came out of the closet and decided to tell the world about it…

I sure hope that PaPa is happy and at peace with himself finally.

this is the freshest TAGGER IVE SEEN IN AGES, THE SHIT IS UP ALL OVER THE EAST COAST NOT JUST NYC. STOP HATING, YOUR PROBABLY JUST MAD CAUSE THIS CAT BOMBED YOUR DOOR OR STORE OR SOMETHING. HE OR SHE WRITES IT SO FAST THE S CAN LOOK LIKE A D BUT ITS ALWAYS AN S, THE TAG ALWAYS SAYS PAPA LOVES BABY YOU JUST CANNOT READ GRAFFITI. THE TAG SEEMED TO JUST POP UP EVERYWHERE OVER NIGHT THATS ONE OF THE REASONS I’M A FAN. I AND MOST OF THE OTHE GRAFF KIDS IN THE TEH CITY LOVE PAPA LOVES BABY. I THINK ITS SAD THAT YOU ARE HATING TO THE EXTENT YOU GOTTA PHOTOGRAPH THE TAGS AND TALK SHIT.

This dude is so prolific. I even cut a phone convo short with my lady, so I could snap a pic with the iPhone. I haven’t cared about graf in some time, but you have to admit this dude gets up.

I’ve been seeing this all over Harlem since last winter–it always catches my eye and there is just something about it that makes me stop and wonder who Papa is, who Baby is…I had no idea that it was being done all over the city (and East Coast, apparently). Pretty cool to realize it’s not just me seeing it.
