  • my life got better ...

    i learned to express myself and value everything more than i did before it also helped me go threw a lot of personal shit

  • I got no feeing i got no family and I got no girlfriend what do I have to lose

  • yeah i dont see how you can lose your girlfriend and friends over graff?

    its not that serious, if anything graff would mess up your life because of jail time.

  • My Advice: Kids, go out and bomb the fuck out of everything.

  • Fuck you guys. None of you know what you're talking about. Rest in peace Semz.

  • it ruined your life cuz your a fucking toy.!

  • Haha maby it's the liquor too man!!

  • This foo is up in INFAMY.. one of the sickest graff doc. ever put out. SEMZ... kno your shit

  • SEMZ RIP

  • This interview seems... written, and rehearsed. Especially the interviewer's reactions, so plastic and such bad acting. Anyhow, this is just a lesson; don't get a fucking ego and act like this dude, your life won't be ruined...

  • Why is everyone hating on this guy...Half the comments are like "Never heard of you nigga?!" Never blah blah blah ... Hes a fucking writer not a superstar..

  • This guy is a fucking poser.

  • Never heard of u nigga!

  • r.i.p.

  • Just do graff for you,the feeling ad the exsperiences normal motherfuckers dont got balls to do :)

  • rule number 1: dont get caught.

    

  • @GarbageGuyGary

    Nigga please

    Rule #1

    Cop says stop you GTFO of there!!!

    Rule #2 Dont Be a Rat or youll get cap'd!

    Rule #3 Escape from police!

  • Nawww foo graffiti didn't ruin your life. You did. Because I know writers that are great people and have jobs.. But you seem like if you got cocky and were a lazy ass!

  • @AlejandroN2r2 well the real writers dont have jobs and they live in breath grafff... what you know is halfbreeds like my self who have a reg life and still do graffiti..  real graffiti bombers like my friends are really people wit no lives just graff graff graff there is one in ever city

  • before you know it, youll be 42, unemployed, living off your dads allowance, after a failed acting career

  • this was the wrong person 2 ask this question it would be better 2 ask toomer!likee if u would ask toomer 4 advice!

  • I believe graff will only ruin your life if you let it. I know nobody else gives two shits about what I'm doing so I don't talk about it. Sure I'll talk to my buddies who do graff about spots and shit that we should hit, but I wouldn't talk about it to my gf or nothin cause I wouldn't want to here her go on about whatever soap opera drama shit she's got goin on. All in all, keep a level head, any kind of fame can ruin you, but only if you let it.

  • RIP Joey Semz

  • no one listen to this lol, like if you just right and respect you get more respect. know the time and place for everything chilluns.

  • @stayfreshvandalz thats the key to graffiti o and good art

  • He really died? That's crazy. I saw his stuff up not too long ago.

  • how did semz die?

  • I love the comments on here. "CRY ME A RIVER FAG", etc.

    Youre not from new york, nor have you followed new york graff culture. Semz VGL was one of the biggest most iconic writers. So before you come on here and disrespect a dead legend, learn your history, you so called "writers".

  • Semz rip I will rep u on my next tour for sure god bless

  • lifes full of fuck ups and decisions we dont like...just gotta say fuck it

  • Dude, Graffiti Ruined YOUR life... Not mine.

  • RR.I.P SEMZ vgll all day

  • people keep saying "you" like this dude is still alive.

  • agree with EON352 most graff writers are fucking cocky fuckers there dicks and the krews well good krews act like gangs slashing anyone trying to come up bye them selves! they hate for no reason slash em back and get jumpedd! like they say this graffiiti sseen aint a beautiful thing! its down and dirty....

  • man i feel sorry for u but honestly your a f***in asshole no way did graff ruin your life you ruined your life only dumbass's think there superhero's you do know how f****d up that sounds if you had good mates they would have stayed your mates so cry me a river u fag

  • shut up all of you i do graffiti i do not do drugs and any of that other shit graffiti is inspiration and showing your emotions not just writing your name everywhere cuz you think your bad ass its not a hobby either so all of you be quiet[ except the ones on my side;) ok well peace out

  • My advice: do graffiti if you want to :D if yu wana be a famous rockstar then be it. theres many ways to become a famous rockstar. like theres many ways to see how life is :D.... oh yeah one more thing dont do drugs... ok yeah do drugs if yu want to :D

  • FUCKING HARDCORE WRITERS LEAVING COMMENTS ON HERE BRO

  • well in my case, he was right. graffiti ruined my life.

  • WHO THE FUCK IS SEMZ? IM FUCKEN SEMZ COCKY MUDFUCKER AINT EVER HEARD OF HIM!

  • @FUCKITKREW1 Very well known, NYC writer. He dies though.

  • @FUCKITKREW1 Never heard of Semz Homie?? You need to learn you little 17 year old nobody...

  • The only thing I have a problem with is that he says "graffiti will ruin your life." No, it won't. It has potential to but its not guaranteed to fuck you over. I've been busted for this stuff, gone to jail the whole bit. And now I've been recommended to an urban arts program where I just paint more and create more art. So in a way, getting in trouble for it sometimes has positive consequences. You just gotta look for the good in everything. Its there.

  • rip boy

  • you dont know the half.. SEMZ rip , haters should be hanged!

  • RIP Joey Semz

  • @11YupYup he died? when? how?

  • THis nigga makes me so fucking mad.

  • Nevveerr!

  • real talk. RIP

  • Man, graffiti isn't about the fame in all cases, it's about the whole culture, meeting new friends and having something that is special to you, whether it murals for youth projects, tagging to get up, stenciling words or pictures like banksy, or making stickers to raise awareness of global events. There is always a reason why you want to do it, in some cases you have a screwed up family, or you are pissed off at everything lol (emo) haha.

  • i cant get a fuckin job now cus i got arrested for graff. im sure theres others that got it worse. so rip semz tell it like it is.

    theres other ways to get away from problems at home. it just takes balls.

  • rip

  • Graffiti has given me loads of opportunities in life it love it it keeps me sane from probs at home,

    SOUL23

  • @Realhiphoper95 i dont do graff to be an ass to people in the public or make people clean it or to "oppress the man" its the art and the exitement, if your smart about it youll never get caught and if you use gass masks you can stay healthy by not breathing in the paint fluids but i do respect your decision.PEACE AND WHOOP WHOOP FROM AURORA COLORADO :KEEP:WRITING:....in your case in the book man lol

  • GRAFF didnt ruin his life he did...this cat let himself get gased up...its like getting rich then you start acting like a fuckin diva, ITS DISGUSTING!!!

  • RIP

  • if you knew the consecuenses why you do it i nthe first place ?

    REAL GRAFFITI wirters keep bombing hard

  • wow sk84dabay is fucken retarded. getting popped for weed? of course ur not gonna stop aint no reason too. going to jail for writing is different dont mean u gotta stop but way different

  • The only reason why it ruined your life is because you just did it to brag... Us real graffiti writers do it for self respect and for the fun of doing it. When ever I go bombing or whatever I always write next to my throwie: "Taggin and Braggin aint my style!"

  • totally agree! i do ot for my self satisfaction dont give a hoot bout what other writers think, like he says Fame only gets you jail

  • "graff is about bombing and getting up!"

  • stupid

  • well.... dont build an ego then

  • graffiti didn't kill your life you did nigga. your the stuck up bitch that was trying to act hard b/c you had a name. dont say graffiti did nigga. Your frinds left you bc they seen a weak ass bitch standing in front of them.

    fucking no one that's what you are.

  • your so fucking right

  • "the only thing you can get from fame, is jail." he was so rite. graff fucked my life up too. i had alot of good times writin. but in the end, it all comes crashing down.

    R.I.P. Joey Semz

  • Everything in life destroys your life. think about it.

  • RIP

  • he should stay shut because he influenced lots of young people, so dont listen to the words that come out of an alcoholic's mouth. graff aint only about fame,WTF.

  • i do it 2 get a adreanaline rush like i go 2 a van wiff a owner on da other side nd hit it up

  • GRAFF FUCKED UP MY LIFE

  • Samee

  • The lesson here is: For all the fame you get, remember, you're still just writing your name on a f**king wall. Do not take yourself too seriously.

  • graff didn't make you an asshole you were one to start with !!!!!!!

  • BAMMMM!!!!!! yu said it!!!

  • @SCAM1948 YOU KNOW HE DIED RIGHT RIP SEMZ

  • @Realhiphoper95 ..... sorry to hear that but he was an asshole ..tho

  • @SCAM1948 Ha ha ha...TRUTH.

  • @Khultan YOUR GOING TO GET SOME SHIT FROM PEOPLE ...JUST LIKE I DO BUT WHO CARES RIGHT ...LOL THANKS DUDE

  • Sounds to me like it wasn't graffiti that ruined his life...it was his own fucked up choices...graffiti doesnt turn you into an asshole...

    Majority of UK writers I know have been around for fucking years and are loveliest people you could meet...some are cunts but thats the same with owt.

    If you fuck up, take responsibility for it.

    Shame, cos what I gather, SEMZ was the fucking man- banging graff for real, and a true G at that!

  • Comment removed

  • most graffiti writers are complete jerk offs. i dont get along with most of the ones ive met. but this the truth graffiti rarley has positive outcomes. do you see Seen in a big mansion with 10 cars becuase of his fame. no. people outside of graffiti could give a shit less about our culture. thats the truth. so dont expect anything. do it for yourself and no one else.

  • I know what you mean a lot of the ones around my way act like they are a big shot. The truth is for me i use to be an extremely quite nervous child, i then i found a way to create an alter ego which in turn made me in my day to day a lot more confident i owe my life to this.

  • Hahaha, giving advice again, lol, you scooter riders are well knowledgable, lol

  • Idiot, lol

  • @EON352 thats so true but one thing ihss if yhu can draw good, yhu can make a career out of ihtt, buht most of uss graff writers dont wanna aha

  • @EON352 SEEN's got a really nice house in the suburbs, and a nice convertible car. Pretty different from the place he lived in, in da BX, next to the 6-line.

  • @EON352 maybe thats not what people want in life a mansion they do what makes them happy.

  • if u wanna do it u do it if u doint u don.t if ur caught and u wann do it , u can do it if u want to , want is do , want and scardd is think i m scared koz i eat crystal meth and ticklwe my penis with an electeric toothbrushshsshsh

  • although i have say, bc i know theres a milion toys readi ng shit,

    1. graffitti isnt shit in the 00s compared to the last 20 years...which might make my next point invalid

    2. alot of writers did have lots of fun and basically their revolve around it w no real consequence until they hit 30 and see the nerds getting paid etc while theyre washed up writers whose history even they dont give a shit about and wasted many valuable years.

  • graff has definitely ruined some lives, some kids are dead bc of it. its a case to case basis... that shit inspired the fuck out of me as a ten year old kid in the late 80s...made me an explorer and gave me a goal as an artist before i was even out of elementry school. now im stacking that chedda mccheez. still answering to no one. basically its what you make it. also almost all my friends are writers and many good times.... the drugs are real, the violence is real, the hate is real... rip kid

  • fame in who's eyes? cope2? lol, he wont give a shit about you, neither will most other top writers

    fuck graff, it'll either bring your life to a positive point or a negative point, more likely a negative point, unfortunately all the writers ive met turned out to be angry jealous ass holes, fuck em, fuck fame do it for fun...

    rip joey

  • HELL YEAH....i do it because it makes my heart feel good, i dont even think about fame

  • haha " im fukin semz man wat are u kidding me".

    ha your a guy.

  • Who the fuck doesnt want fame!!!!

    thats why sum people do it!! to be infamous in this world!!!

  • BOMB THE WORLD!!!!

  • ur homo!! hahaha...ill do graffiti till i die.....nd im not a toy....i actually get up,,not on paper...lol....nd i been writin' sence 2004....nd not planning 2 ever ever everrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr stoping,lol.....

  • your a fukin dero.

  • fvck dude you must be hardcore...been geting up since 04 hey! Sheeeezz you go deep!

  • Cope two sure it made his JOB not his life also cope two isn't respected by many important people just a bunch a kids getting into graffiti. Seen is also an artist in a sense he didn't make a living just from bombing people don't understand that semz knows what he is talking about fully.

  • Na This Guy Is Ryte. Btw Im AngelakaFlinchy and i dnt do drugs T_T

  • nah graffiti doesnt ruin peoples life..it made seens life it also made cope2 life

  • i think the drugs ruined your life not graff

  • This Guy Is Saying The Truth Like Really Im Kinda Going Through So Same Thing.

  • Fuck that

  • This guy never realized that it wasnt graff that ruined his life...it was the fact that he was a junky.

  • who cares if i was takin to kids id say know

    what your getting into dog this shit can

    fuck up your life but hey not every story is the

    same

  • it did not ruin his life, he was just acting like a annoying homo about his name semz

  • Amazing.

  • this cat had it a lil sumthin.

  • nah bro's keep graffn till the end! i dont get up much any more but i still put out when ever i can.

    stay away from the booze too when bombin. peace or piece

  • R.I.P SEMZ true staten island kinggg

  • Yeah jeansandluck is true.

  • It's not graffiti that ruined your life, it was your massive fucking ego that ruined it, your obsession. Not the art itself, you can ruin your life by playing computer games, you can isolate yourself that way...

  • talent you got aint for u so you put it out there for others 2 see n if you make buisness out of what you good at then its something you can live off n you can do that with graffiti because alot of people love it, its art, art is everywhere but people only tune in on the good stuff, your hearts gotta be in it to win it

  • iv been ritin for about 2 years now iv only been arested for it 1s it hasnt ruind my life yet but i know im guna end up goin 2 prison for it sumtime i ant guna stop but for all u kids who are thinkin about goin out n doin it jus dont.

  • seriously , what the fuck , do u want a bigger writer scene or a smaller, yes u want a bigger ,so stop tryin to be a 'look up to ' and sayin ' dont do it little kids , its not clever , and i kno i shudnt.'If u really dont want people do begin , u shudnt of sed shit.

  • so get of your high ass fuckin horse,and quit thinking ur god niggas,a mothafucka that eats breathes and shits paint would never say some shit like that.....that shit bugged me out....peace

    CaSE_OnE

  • he grabs a forty at the end lol

  • fucc that shit all my friends are incouraging bout' it.

    even if it seems slow; just lie and tell then thier dope.

    keep bombing, stay up, don't stop!!!!

  • man ... ive been writing for 9 months now ... and when i started ... i heard writers saying u know '' its a sickness , or youll lose family friends and all that'' and i was like whatever but now damn ... its true this shit takes you over and if lost my friends and all that shit ... its true but still im not gonna stop but thats me

    r.i.p semz

  • thoughtful words from a writer, he knows whats true. but never stop writin

    R.I.P SEMZ

  • Yooo Ill Neva Stop Fukin Writin Man! Fukin Graff RULEZZ! Live To Write..Write To Live!!

  • ok dude i have seen a lot of friends get locked up for a long time because they did nothing but tag. Art is great dont get me wrong, but is it worth your friends and freedom? He is obviously over the politics of the game and is ready to move on and start using his art to make himself happy not others. He proved what he had to and he is speaking from experience and he is just telling the younger scene what there is to lose when you know your the best.

  • im invincible.

  • Comment removed

  • rip semz

  • Speaking of egos, true, you get that feeling of invincability, like your the man, you rocked the system. But that can destroy you, you have to stay humble and keep yourself under control. There's always someone better than you, go out and learn from them, most of all have a good time, get your name out and stay safe.

  • word.

    rip joey!

  • ok if you get caught and the know your face and all these can they charge you for everything with your name on it or just what they caught you doing because i heard of writers going to prison someone please inform me man i really want to know

  • Man, I'll be laughing my head off how all of these tools set themselves up and make it nice and easy for their local police authorities to track them down, you've cut their work and search labor by 80%. I write and I'm trying to get up as well but never, never,even if I were a teenager would I ever fucking expose myself the way these tools have. Ha ha ha Toy or veteran....I'd never do it. Of course, you're ass will go to prison especially the damage you do and your age.

  • most small cities can only charge/convict you of the thing they caught you doing/saw u doing. if you were doing something a week ago across town and you just wrote the same name the time they caught u doesnt mean you did the one across town. so they cant charge you with it.

  • R,I,P,

  • RIP

  • i hate thinking about the down sides of graff, its true what he says though

  • word, makes me wanna stop....but....but...but....ba­hhhhhhhh ahahahahahahah imma be doin throwies in heaven.

  • semz is right man,my life sucks.

  • lost a lot of time in jail and

  • yo, i agree with TagginUpYourBlock, ur rite dawg but graffiti helps me cope with shit, & i wouldnt want it to be legalized. it would extract the joy of goin out & bombin shit, theres a sort of rush that goes through ur system. i dont really think that graffiti is for everyone. i especially hate kids who write cuz its ''cool'', i can careless bout wut ppl think, its an escape from all the negative in my world that can only be expressed through my writin.. stay up -TOXER

  • Word.

  • I love graff but what he says is fuckn true: you can give a lot of effort, time, all your life to graffiti but graffiti will never give you anything back, except some satisfaction...

  • but if people get no satisfaction people start to get low self esteem

    thats why people that have high self esteem have alot of hobbys and graff is one of mine and that always keeps me occupied

    and graff will maybe get you fame

    ,look at seen and cope, but like i was saying graff is also expression

    if everyone in the world did graff im pretty sure it would be legal, its just once you start you cant stop and no one understands that exept other graff writers

  • u talk some right weird shit m8 lol (if everyone in the world did graff im pretty sure it would be legal) are you sure heroin and murder would be legal to, what a sill thing to say, FOOL.

  • yeah im trippin i dont know why i even said that haha but i should make a video like that jus wit my advice though haha u feel me?

    just say fuck the law, go out and write!

  • respect for this joey, there really is more to life than graffiti, although we the graffiti writers often forget that... r.i.p.
