In the next clip of our exclusive interview with Los Angeles Billboard Killer BUGE BAMC VS, he sets the record straight on the rumors swirling around his style. Known for his bold and unpredictable work, BUGE addresses claims about his style, and reveals how he forged his own unique visual identity through heavy metal art and the chaotic energy of the music that inspired him.

Drawing parallels between the raw, distorted sound of metal and the sharp, jagged lines of his graffiti, BUGE describes his early artistic influences and how he sought to “paint the music” with his lettering. He credits the heavy metal genre for shaping the aggressive aesthetic that has become his signature.

But it’s not just his creativity that’s legendary—his physical resilience is too. In a shocking revelation, BUGE recounts the bizarre accident that left him with all the toes on his foot broken, a keg of beer toppling over and crushing them. True to his tough-guy persona, he didn't realize the extent of the injury for two weeks, only seeking medical attention when the pain became unbearable.
