Free Humanity Wages War with Phone Jacks
Phone Jacks gets up all over Los Angeles. People have always speculated what it was about. Rumors swirled that it was a hack artist, or the FBI, but strangely enough, it turns out that Phone Jacks is just someone hawking actual phone jacks.
Phone Jacks bumps heads with artists, many times capping or going over artists pieces. Well, Free Humanity has had enough and has opened up an open battle capping Phone Jacks.
Free Humanity 'jacked' the Phone Jacks pasters for the battle. These new pasters from Free feature his name, along with Phone Jacks phone number.
Don't know if Phone Jacks has ever openly battled before. Interesting to see how this plays out.

Ricky Reed... what r u doin... Ricky Reed...
lol this is to funny how you idiots think this guy is a street artist. He's a real business man obviously an old guy. Making signs and putting them up everywhere is something they teach in seminars especially real estate. I actually had a real estate lady 15 years ago pay me to make same kind of signs that said "WE BUY HOMES" with her number. These are serious business people who probally dont have much work and are resourting to this or trying this as a different technique to see if it works
ReplyDeleteMaybe you should actually read what is written above before you lol and call other people idiots. Yes, there IS a businessman and probably old guy who plasters "Phone Jacks 323-980-6002" advertisements all over town. They are an eyesore and quite annoying. As a response to those, someone has covered them with similar looking posters using the same phone number, but instead of "Phone Jacks" the posters say "Free Humanity." Get it? So now the old businessman is the one being annoyed, because his advertisements are covered up and people are having fun calling him to enquire about "Free Humanity." Is any of this starting to sink in?
Deletelol what an IDIOT you are ^. These people were originally complaining about him plastering over thier "STREET ART" which is theyre Stencil art which is not art at all. Taking pics of famous people or a picture that you did not create or draw yourself or make up and plastering it all over LA which most of these IDIOTS know nothing about is "STUPIDITY" and falls no where into the art field especially in LA.
DeleteIs it starting to sink in IDIOT?
Rickey Reed has been busted by a sting set up by LA Code Enforcement.
