I'd say he's more of a well-practiced entertaining street-performer/busker.

I agree. And personally, I found the performance aspect a little spastic and over the top. The speed is pretty impressive though.

He was the first graff artist in canada to do 3d letter styled graffiti.
A bit full of himself, yes, but he has the talent and the catalog to back it up.
edit: you can't see the piece he was refering to either. The top of it pokes out a bit. There's other pieces gone over it.

BS, I've seen it in the 80s. Once I hear one obvious lie, it takes credibility away... his mistake for saying that.

What did you see in the 80's? the piece he was talking about? or 3d letter styles?
Daim is credited to create the first "3 dimensional" graffiti letter style and he didn't even begin writting until 1989...I'm not sure when he began creating 3d letter styles, but it probably wasn't until the early 90's. He's also from Hamburg, Germany....did you see it in Germany?
You didn't see full 3d letter styles in the 80's. No one did.
Duro3 (the guy in the video) was also the first canadian writter to adapt to a 3d letter style. That piece is covered up was propably the first wall piece with a 3d letter style.
You can't arugue that. It's like saying grand wizard theodor didn't invent scratching, or alexander grahm bell didn't invent the phone.
the writing is on the wall...literally.

I'm not saying he's talented. His style is cut sharp and very real looking similar to what would be expected only a computer could do. Props to him. But the origins goes back before him. He may have made graffitti sharper, but no way was he the first.
