FAKE URBAN ART RELEASE 02/11/15 @ 4PM GMT

Give the guy no break, he sure is busy lately. :-)

Fake is around on here, so perhaps he'll give us a bit more information on the piece.

For me, it could be a sly dig or statement regarding people purchasing street cred, rather than earning it. Maybe in particular some street artists? Or perhaps it says something about living in a certain lifestyle or manner that you can't maintain.

As Manuel would say "I know nutheeeng!"

Hi Guys!

Well, I usually like to let the beholder of the artwork decide what it means for him/her but I can give a little elaboration of what is behind this artwork from my side.

First of all the creditcard he is holding says "StreetCred" in stead of Mastercard (just saying, some are not noticing that and it can be difficult to see on this image posted)

Street Cred = street credibility. And for me this artwork is about questioning what that is actually worth or is it important? Is it worth any thing? In some subcultures like rap and gangsters it is very important, but what do you have to do to gain it? In the street art scene there is also a thing as having "Street Cred". For example does MBW have it? Does Banksy have it? Do I have it? Do you have it when you only do legal work on the streets? or do you only have it when you do tagging or illegal work? Or do you have it when you just make cool shit ;-)

So what I am trying to do is let you think what StreetCred means and what is it worth. 

Hope this makes sense a bit ;-) It is already late and had a busy Sunday with the family ;-)

More images up on their website too, looking sharp

So very excited about this release! A lot of work went in to these ;-)
