A rough, hand-drawn display face with irregular, brushy strokes and uneven contours. Letterforms show frequent wobble, tapered joins, and occasional sharp spurs, with inconsistent stroke distribution that creates a blot-and-scratch texture. Counters are often partially pinched or lopsided, and terminals vary between rounded smears and pointed flicks. Overall spacing feels lively and slightly unstable, reinforcing a casual, improvised rhythm across both uppercase and lowercase.
Works best for short headlines and loud typographic moments where texture is an asset: posters, album/mixtape covers, apparel graphics, and themed promotions. It can also add character to packaging or social graphics when used at larger sizes with ample contrast against the background.
The font conveys a raw, underground energy—messy in a deliberate way, like marker lettering scanned from paper or quick brush writing. Its texture suggests grit, noise, and spontaneity, lending a playful-but-edgy tone that reads as expressive rather than polished.
Likely designed to emulate distressed hand lettering—capturing the look of ink dragged across a rough surface or a quickly written marker/brush note. The intent appears to prioritize attitude and texture over precision, giving designers an expressive, imperfect voice for display typography.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same distressed construction, with the lowercase tending toward more cursive-like movement in places while still remaining mostly upright. Numerals match the same rough rendering and hold up as bold, attention-getting shapes, though fine interior breaks can fill in at small sizes or on low-resolution output.
