commenting on what you said about ny writers are only out to bomb and what not, as a ny writer, theres not many places where we have the time to do def wildstyles and what not that cops dont pass by often. unless its on a roof top somewhere. thats why most of the street bombing is just tags and throw ups
I'm a writer 17yrs deep. I'm not from NYC or Cali. I'm from Oklahoma. I learned graff from Subway Art. So my influence comes from NYC mainly the Bronx. I completely agree with Wine149. If you can't do your name real phat, it doesn't matter how dope your "spraycan art" is. You aren't a writer. Your an artist that is good with a can of spraypaint. There is a difference. Props to Wine149! I love your style. Mad fresh!
thats not wat bombin is about its 4 the love of the sport not 4 fame or impressing othrs a great doesnt need to prove anything. its art not JUST letters
ya hes rite about most of the way cus hes ackin ask if its as eazy as it was back in the day when it 1st came up butt its what ever to mi cuz i love putin my name up (BooM) throwin up for my krew kwc
he right duo cuz most of the writaz now are all about the throw ups and shit and the fact is ppl concern bout gettin ups but yeah gettin known is important but but bomb wit style at least
i dont fully agree with this cause shit changes maybe it use too be about the letters but now its about it all from the letter too the background your colors but the main thing its about now is gettin up...dont ya'll agree?
yeah i understand that but evolution is apart of everything shit evolves but yeah i gotta say its about it all i myself cant stand throwing up the same shit i mix the style of my letters up!
thats cool. it evolves to the wrong direction know what I mean? at the end of the day, like wine says: its all about the letters. the better the piece the better the artist. If a writer is smart enough he does what he can to get better and he gets better. if a writer is about getting up he always stays the trash what he really is... inside.
True, i agree but if you look up the word graffiti it doesnt just mean letters but also painting. Plus character is harder, if someone does graffiti and characters then he's a true legend!!
Nar, i think u got it misunderstood. True, graff can means painting (technically) but he is saying that the true Graff writing culture have always been about letters. The structure, the basis importance of what makes the culture. Thats where practioneers get their term from - writers.
you can't really prove you point with a definition like that especially if it's on the internet, the definitions will slightly be different for each site/ book.
listen to the guy in the video, he has his own opinion on something that could easily be looked up, yet the still doesn't care to express it, people can think whatever they want, and you cant stop them.
fucking true, fuck muhufuckas doing carachters and shit calling themselfs writers ya'll ain't shit, graffiti iz all about the letters, carachters are cool but only if acompanied by some fresh styles
I totally agree. I always thought graffiti was about the letters - that's why they are called writers.
On the other hand, I consider the guys who do the big drawings to be graffiti artists, because it's all about drawing pictures with cans and the tags are an afterthought, just to say who did it.
thank you for your comments 1st i would like to say i don't want to comme across as a hater. I was asked how do i feel about the fact that currently in graf it seems that art is primary and letters are now secondary. i said if letters are secondary its not graf.graf is about the name and the letters 1st.Chico from the LES,NYC is a great artist but he's wasn't a writer. also Akats you have the wrong chico. kool look at any fx mural you'll see they put some thought into the style of the letters
@wine149 Hey am a beginner and i respect graffiti alot i do graffiti eveyday and i always focuse on the letters at first i thought it was about the designs and characters and stuff but i wanted to know if you can give me tips and good advise about graffit but it if you want to you know i dont wana be bugging (just saying) and i really love you work its dope anyway thanks for doing the things you love and inspiring us young graffit artis peace.
