Robbo vs. Banksy

Banksy on side of former Reading prison defaced with red paint

Robbo vs. Banksy
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

King Robbo, a pioneering British graffiti artist best known for a long-running dispute with his more famous peer, Banksy, died after three years in a coma somewhere in 2014 following an unexplained head injury. There are many rumours on how this injury was sustained but none are conclusive.

I am writing this today following the recent news of a Banksy artwork being “defaced” in Reading. The artwork, which appeared on a red brick wall of what was once Reading prison, showed an inmate escaping lockdown using a knotted spool of paper from a typewriter. It appeared on 1 March and was officially confirmed as a Banksy three days later, when the elusive street artist posted a video on his Instagram account.

On Tuesday, photographs emerged that showed the piece entitled Create Escapedefaced with red paint covering the typewriter, with the phrase “Team Robbo” below.

Almost all news outlets are just saying “Defaced with Red Paint” which is either a direct insult or pure lack of knowledge to the long standing fued the two prolific artists had over many many years.  Check the full video below for more info on the fued itself.

R.I.P KING ROBBO

  • It’s time for another killer edition of Back of the Stack, with the selections this time around coming from one of Manchester’s finest exports, the junglist MC and all round top bloke @chimpomcr

It is rare to find an artist who can be so proficient across multiple disciplines of drum and bass, from rap to production to DJ’ing, but Chimpo crosses between all three with apparent ease. With his new album dropping next month, the the man himself gives us a taste of some of the classic cuts that helped shape his awesome style of filthy bars and filthier bass lines.

  • PREMIERE: Villem - "Deep Step"

@villem_murkt returns to @symmetryrecordings for his first solo release, with two jungle influenced tracks. A versatile producer, Villem has graced different styles over the past decade and whilst his output keeps you guessing, his reputation for quality is never in doubt.

‘Deep Step’ flips this inspiration, as serene strings and pads lead into heavy, cascading breaks; crashing and alternating throughout, coalesced by thumping bass kicks.

  • After a lengthy hiatus, Back of the Stack returns! This edition plays host to a certified legend of the Drum & Bass scene in @architexink who’s dark, dirty beats have been reverberating through London’s club scene since the late 90’s. If you can think of an iconic London club night, Ink has probably had a residency there; Metalheadz at Bule Note, Hardware at The End and Speed at Mars Bar were all on the list of dancefloors being torn up by Giles on a regular basis.
