An italic, brush-driven display face with compact proportions and a lively, variable rhythm. Strokes show strong contrast and visible drag artifacts, creating ragged edges, occasional bristle streaks, and uneven terminals that feel like fast marker or dry-brush lettering. Counters are tight and often partially pinched by heavy joins, while bowls and curves are broadly painted and slightly angularized. The overall texture is consistently distressed across caps, lowercase, and numerals, with small variations that reinforce a hand-rendered look.
Best suited for short, impactful text where texture is an asset: posters, event promotion, album/cover graphics, streetwear branding, and packaging callouts. It works especially well when paired with a clean sans or monospace for supporting copy, as the distressed brush texture can become busy in long paragraphs or at small sizes.
The font reads as bold, spontaneous, and streetwise—more like a quick hand-lettered tag or poster brush script than a polished book face. Its scratchy texture and forward slant convey motion and urgency, giving headlines an assertive, DIY attitude.
The design intention appears to be a high-impact, hand-painted brush style that bakes in authentic wear and ink-drag texture, delivering a ready-made distressed look without additional effects. Its compact, slanted forms prioritize momentum and punch for contemporary themed graphics and headline-driven layouts.
Caps have strong presence and simplified structures that hold up to the distressed edges, while lowercase maintains a loose, cursive-like flow without fully connecting. Numerals follow the same brush logic, with chunky shapes, sharp turns, and textured fills that keep the set cohesive at display sizes.
