FBA Crew, NYC Legends
Burning all other crews since 1977
Born in the mean streets of money makin manhattan, who is FBA?
FBA really had its roots from about four or five heads from around the same block that had the same interests, writing. We were friends way before we were writing that's why we were so close when we were hitting the lines. No ego problems among us. We worked all that shit out years before. We were boys, that's how we took it. In '78 AIRBORN and TACK went to A&D. There they met this kid from the Bronx there named KAZE. This kid turned out to be a kool brother.
Together we set out to get the crew going. One day they were kicking around some names in the school cafeteria and one of their boys from school who wrote SEP kicked the name FBA, or FAST BREAKIN ARTIST. The rest is history. FAST BREAKIN ART was formed. Fast Breakin because that's how we operated, we went in rocked it, and were out. No bullshitting around, straight to the point, get the job done and do it well, and be out. Art because we felt we had mad artistic talent. It's probably a little biased, but in my opinion we had some of the best writers out there. I truly believe that.
FBA CREW is exceptionally good at what we do!
FBA CREW has been pioneering style masters for over 35 years. To this day FBA style is visible all over the world!
