This is a slanted, brush-pen style face with brisk, tapered strokes and visibly rough edges that mimic a dry brush catching the paper. Letterforms are condensed and lively, with uneven stroke boundaries, pointed terminals, and a mix of sharp angles and quick curves. Texture is built into the outlines rather than added as an overlay, giving counters and joins a slightly ragged, organic finish. Spacing and widths vary by character, reinforcing an improvised handwritten rhythm while maintaining consistent overall stroke energy.
Best suited for short to medium display settings where texture and motion are an advantage—posters, event promotions, album/playlist artwork, expressive packaging, apparel graphics, and social media headlines. It can also work for pull quotes or section headers when you want a hand-rendered, high-impact look.
The font conveys a raw, street-poster attitude with a fast, expressive tempo. Its dry-brush texture and sharp terminals create an urgent, gritty tone that feels handmade and attention-grabbing rather than polished or formal.
Likely designed to replicate quick brush lettering with a dry, slightly distressed ink footprint, prioritizing energy and personality over pristine geometry. The condensed stance and built-in roughness aim to deliver strong visual punch in display applications while preserving a believable hand-made stroke logic.
Capitals read as bold, gestural marks with strong diagonals and occasional overshoot, while lowercase forms keep a cursive momentum without fully connecting. Numerals share the same brushy taper and irregular edge texture, matching the alphabet well in mixed typographic settings.
