A condensed, forward-leaning handwritten display face with brush-like strokes and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Letterforms are irregular and slightly unstable, with roughened edges and occasional interior texture that reads like dry-brush or worn ink. Strokes end in tapered flicks and blunt terminals, and spacing is compact but uneven in a natural, hand-drawn way. Overall rhythm is energetic and narrow, with a small lowercase presence relative to the caps and lively, inconsistent stroke boundaries that reinforce the distressed finish.
Best suited to short, impactful text such as posters, event flyers, album/playlist covers, apparel graphics, and punchy editorial headlines. It also works well for packaging accents and branding elements that benefit from a gritty, handmade voice, especially at medium to large sizes where the texture can be appreciated.
The font conveys a raw, street-level energy—part DIY brush script, part worn poster lettering. Its rough texture and slanted stance feel urgent and informal, suggesting handmade signage, zines, and scrappy branding where imperfection is part of the attitude.
Likely designed to mimic fast brush lettering with a deliberately worn print character—capturing the immediacy of marker/ink strokes while adding a distressed layer for attitude and visual bite. The condensed proportions and italic slant support attention-grabbing display use in tight spaces.
Uppercase forms tend to feel taller and more assertive, while the lowercase stays compact and quick, enhancing a casual hierarchy in mixed-case settings. Numerals follow the same brushy construction and texture, keeping a cohesive, hand-rendered tone across alphanumerics.
