peep podcast interview Graffiti legend ‘NICKOS’ as he claims Newcastle smashes all other cities." Live from the Rap-Time hip-hop session with Gilly Man Giro & Rick Fury also featuring H-man in Ouseburn, Little buildings. Darlington graff writer Nickos (TTK / TFB) steps up to the mic with peep for a raw, unscripted breakdown of pure letter structure, scene connectivity, and North East street heritage. From getting his start as an 80s B-Boy lookout to earning his spot in TTK under ‘Mister Zee’, Nickos reflects on decades of keeping the classic foundations alive—and how the Tyne & Wear Metro keeps the regional scene moving faster than the rest.

Surrounded by live paint and hip-hop performances with Hocus, H-Man, Rick Fury, and Gilly Man Giro, this session cuts through the noise. peep and Nickos tackle the debate between b-boy freezes and Graffiti lettering (giving a nod to pioneers like Dozes Green), while taking a hard look at scene politics, local egos, and fellow writer INCH’s view on being part of a wider continuum rather than claiming to be the best. No scripts, no filter—just pure lettering and real North East culture. Keep subscribing and help peep Support The Under Represented in the north east and further afield.
