A heavy, slanted display face with chunky, rounded letterforms and pronounced, brush-like tearing along edges and terminals. Strokes show uneven contouring and occasional notches that mimic dry-brush or rough print artifacts, while counters stay relatively open to preserve legibility. The rhythm is lively and irregular, with compact joins and a hand-cut feel that keeps each character slightly unpredictable while remaining consistent as a system.
Best used at display sizes where the ragged edges and dynamic slant can do the heavy lifting—posters, headlines, packaging callouts, album/playlist artwork, and energetic event or nightlife promotions. It can also work for short social graphics or punchy brand phrases, but extended paragraphs may feel visually busy due to the strong texture.
The overall tone is loud and high-energy, blending a mischievous, streetwise attitude with a handmade grit. It reads like fast, emphatic lettering—expressive and a little unruly—suited to punchy statements rather than quiet refinement.
This font appears designed to deliver impact through a bold, italicized silhouette paired with distressed, brushy texture—evoking hand-made urgency and a rough-printed aesthetic. The goal is clear personality and motion, prioritizing expressiveness and attitude over neutrality.
The distressing is most apparent on diagonals and stroke endings, creating a serrated silhouette that adds motion even in static text. Numerals match the same rugged treatment, maintaining the same bold, brush-worn texture across the set.
