R.I.P IZ the Wiz.
The news is spreading speedily through graffiti communities around the world as New York old School graffiti legend IZ the Wiz has passed away.

The term Old School New York legend is probably used a little too much these days, but IZ the Wiz wore the shoes well and he earnt it. A relentless bomber, IZ was active in graffiti till the end of his life. A true legend of the Subways and a world renowned contributor to the culture of Graffiti.
