[timcgovern]

i write graffiti and i am 10

[smokeybear69]

I like considered art on walls whether legal or illegal, I don't have any respect for marker scribbles all over public property.... it's lazy and mindless. Some real nice graffiti in this vid.... Stokes Croft is a great spot and a breath of fresh air in the world we live in today.

[TheUntilitsleeps]

hmm never been into graffiti or tagging so im kinda new , wtf is a toy ?

[BasementBeginnings]

@TheUntilitsleeps "Toy" is the graffiti term for an unexperienced graffiti writer. Compare to the internet term "noob."

"Ha, look at that toy - he's trying so hard."

[demotitan]

Rich Minchin, How fake and soul-less do you feel, Stand in front of other peoples work to make yourself look good, Whats the matter, couldn't find any of your own work to rep? I did that mural at Montpelier (in the rain over 4 days) with 3 other writer (and you weren't one of them).

[DerKeks99]

bristol is the town in my english book xD

i´m from germany

[jojeboysybrand]

the dont get it tagging = graffiti tagging is cool you must get it you must know what tagging =

[Strawberry7Lynn]

I know vandalism when I see it. Don't bother me again.

[BNM98514]

stupid music

[chicagocubsfreak]

how do u chose something for yourself to write?

[CharIiePresents]

Stokes Croft ♥

[mieery]

if you like the art so much get a graffiti coloring book.if its on the walls its vandalism anyway,and tags are quick and stealthy,fun.dont do murals if you dont tag.

[josmc93]

MOS- massive

[XxWisdoM96xX]

if police give us time we wouldnt have to tag we would take our time and do a nice piece.

-"WisdomOner"-

[Whitewings2003]

Vandalism

[shotbydalonewolf]

is this bristol VA?

[Simaszkoner]

Yeah, sby tell me, how the fuck do I do a mural on the street in five minutes, (possibly less) Yeah In the 90's people didn't know what It was and didn't say anythin, but nowadays, with the fuckin cameras, and all that, you only have time for murals at legal places, or the fuck out in the country, where people still don't give a fuck...

[pheksy]

0:50 -1:00 lol

[sskillafornia]

....tagging is how it all starts.. then u move ur way on up to bombing and piecing!!! graffiti is nothing without tags.. its like a stepping stool.

[JackWMS14]

What is the track used in this vid?

[rampagerojas]

I love to tag but I agree quality is better than quantity. But I do throw my tag up alot just to be known. Still drawing out my first piece trying to come up with a design. But look for RAVIK and my friends LAUGH, MURAK, and ZURK

[benedicttucker]

I hate meaningless tags and bombs like "city for da cup" or "iofdjfh" made by toys which drip more than their cocks but most graffiti (including tags by decent graffiti artists) make the world a better and more beautiful place. Think of a world without Banksy's political statements, or Obama without his famous (Shephard Fairey produced) poster. Graffiti is art and art is life.

[ickythehen99]

them kids know whats good

[nunchuckerz]

lol i whent to school with tyndale

[tederetus]

fuck the respect man, i dont need pussy ass graffiti artist tell me what to do, i just wanna tag up the fucking city

[stickmister321]

@tederetus And thats why you probably are a toy :/ You ppl are the main reason why ppl hates graffiti.

[WarmPancake]

1:25 you want a picture? I'll bomb those walls out and have pictures of you kids throwing dynamite in a principles office or something. How's that?

[Welsed]

Tag EVERYTHING! Fuck the known system of organic humanity. Inundate and destroy to create and employ!!! Why do people feel like they need to uphold a social standard so archaic in nature??? WRECK!

[tederetus]

fuck yeah man!

[UHOHLonglsand]

yo everyone subscribe to me for mad graff vids im trying to get something going

[TheMyhouse789]

who tinks graffiti is cool when you do it,and when its seened

[Riskibiz]

BIG Up DFens! lol

[djtopdjblack]

dont fking tag something do a nice big fking throwupp or someting, dont be a toy.

[Masterofwarez]

bristol TN?????

[cherubcampus]

its all about the quantity as long as its not complety toy as thats just an eyesore

[watchingurvidz]

Dont tag unless you've got a decent handstyle xD

[cambie30]

bull shit, hit up evrythin....

dont let nuffin stop yaa

stay up

[magzcampos]

obviuosly people in bristol dont know how to tag.. yes thats all shit i saw in the video, but i can say you can spend alot more with a tag than just some quick hit up, look at calligraphy there are some preofessional handwriters you know?

[martinifilms240]

no doubt graffiti is an amazing art form, but it is still vandalism.... not cool to tag someone els's building. it would be as if i wrote my name on your moms forehead, its just not right.

[megapengwenman]

Tag every once in a while, do throw ups and back jumps most of the time, and if you got the balls and the time do a piece. if you can't do pieces, back jumps, and throwies, like they like like shit, then stop spraying you fuckin toys.

[stekke1995]

tags can be beautiful

but the really beautiful ones are extremely hard to make

[Bristollie]

mate a toy is man who dont know and just follow the crowd..brismans know real art

[stickmister321]

toy is definition of noob in graffiti lang :/ he suck at graffiting

[alteam]

Everything you do is art,just harder to se some times tbh...

[dje14]

What do you mean when you say "Your a toy!"?

[sk8r4lifematt]

i hate the tags that are written by the toys

those whitouth style

[gotenku]

What's the point?

[Sven0228]

QUALITY BEFORE QUANTITY!

[MrDarthJerk]

yeah i got about 100 slap stickers im new to graffiti but i slap them all around school but im still a toy but i dont just put my name on it i fill it in and stuff

[canoandy]

lmao u slap ur school

[PKTO92]

How is it bad for the community like the little kid said in that video?

[clancyophetveld]

tagging is an art , but it has to be don good !!!

[uathebest]

idiot,taggin is just 4 giggles GRAFFITI is what u could call an art.

[stickmister321]

u know, taggin is really hard too, thats why u see alot awfull ones. but yea, graffities are better of co, i just do stickers.

[CTDevon]

@uathebest TAGGING IS GRAFFITI BITCH!!!! Fuck outa here with that nonsense..U prolly just can't tag right faggot

[StuntMafia98]

i wrote mmy frst tag when i wuz 6

[llMars]

Nice!!

Yo

[Terrekon]

i agree, u cant have one w/ out the other; you cant have murals w/ out the marker tags. there are a lot of really nice tags out there, but toys just ruin it for everyone.

[graffitiking100]

0:34 fuk him. no one ever said that tags were sopposed to be art. this is a onesided documentary which the goverment made to stop graffiti. ILL DESTROY SHIT AS I SEE IT BE IT TAGS,THROWIES,BURNERS,PIECES

[graffitiking100]

0:32 fuk him tags started graffiti. no one ever said tags were artistic. thats like sayin that cars doesnt look artistic. no one said that in the first place. this is a one sided opinoin that the goverment made to stop graffiti. ill destroy shit as i want be it tags throwies burners, pieces.

[mo2cros]

dont spray paint on private property. Instead work hard to bridge the gaps in your teeth, because good teeth are a clear sign of intellegence. If you have lots of missing teeth, chances are your an idiot

[Woofwoof350]

Wow You Stupid

[ThePerfectStrangerz]

shitty

[5596857]

i love taggs ..

n i love to go

2philly

[guitarchim]

i can see why they were talkin shit about taggers....all the tags i saw in this vid were toy ass fuck! theres some nice tags out there but they were just showing the toy ones i guess

[FLVKO96]

taggerz r takin over u kant go anywhere n not see a piecekeep it up n stay SIC

[honkercianj]

graffiti started of as tagging and grew from there, if you dont like tagging but love graffiti then thats like saying " I love rock music but i hate guitar".

[JudahLionOfZion]

that's in no way related.

Tagging is the predeccesor to graffiti in the same way pong is to grand theft auto.

Tagging is extremely simple, and takes little to no creative thought. Graffiti is practiced for hours, and even the placement of the piece is usually thought out

[LightDarkStupid]

heard that one before, its very true

[StokerOne775]

@honkercianj No, tagging is like one string of the guitar. nothing with out the rest. taggin sucks if its not legible or lacks style...

[HardBodyNyC]

Wannabe new yorkers

[walkman95]

omg ur such a fukin dik u comment on every english video and say somethink bad coz u suk off america sooo much

[mrhello111]

is that why bristols known as the graffiti capital of the world

[aapiesnuf]

I love seeing tags, shows that the city is alive, especially these days the tags are getting better and better because we have all kinds of different colored inks and mop paints.

[ajuk1]

I agree with the first bloke, it's a pitty so many people can't distinguish between art and mindless tagging where it really should not be.

[fcbristolcity]

Vandals creating eyeshores. The walls sould be whitewashed.

[gus361]

those kids were brainwashed

[Strawberry7Lynn]

TAGGING: Little things please little minds. People with low intellegence.

[kill4fun]

@Strawberry7Lynn Have you ever done it?

[Strawberry7Lynn]

@kill4fun God, no

[kill4fun]

@Strawberry7Lynn Then you wouldn't understand, would you? It's closed-minded people like you who have the real 'low intelligence'. Also, you misspelt intelligence, ironic much?

[jacklental]

tags are the soldiers of the graffiti movement , the more you do the more ground you cover faster and without tags there wouldnt be those beautiful pieces you see .

[fcbristolcity]

Tags are for people who can't draw. Its not art, it takes no skill. Taggers....get a life.

[1919maze]

graffiti startet off as tagen ifa wall has 1 tag it looks a bit shit but wen dere is lodes ov em it looks a bit better but thro upps are sick

[Sultana81]

I really think some suits don't like graffiti because it reminds them that the drones they expect to build their houses and clean up their takeaway wrappers might have more talent than them hidden away with less chances in life to prove it.

[rucks0ne]

most tagging is un-artistic crap, everybody has done it ,everybody has learned from it though, and it should be killed off. the only form of tagging thats good is when somebody writes something influencial or makes you think. that is the only form of tag which is good. the rest are kids thinking they are brave by shitting themselves and rushing 4 letters onto a wall at 4 in the morning when the only person out is the milk man. and the most unprofesional thing to say is ' toy ' bunch of children.

[rodrigodda]

1 thing it to do a real good tag, and the other thing are the suckers idiots that write name of bands, their names with an horrible letter and those stuff...you should arrest idiots, NOT tagger and graffers

[jprez94]

Toys

[TherrorTazz]

damn tagging is part of graffiti

like it all or just don't like it

[haircutbob2]

That's like saying that if you like graffiti, that you must like every style of graffiti. Very untrue.

[DonJuanDeMarco2]

Yea.. tag your work then

Plain tagging is a complete eyesore and stain on the environment.

[b0grillaz]

GOOD

[Farkeman]

tagging is homo , every1 can do it and its diff with graffiti...

[shanedude93]

tagging is a form of graffiti.

learn your shit.

[rumdrunk]

it doesn't make sense if that's all you do like most kids

[Sultana81]

rumdrunk sorry but your comment doesn't make much sense

[oogiboogy]

Without the TAG ,piecing and doing burners is impossible.

First comes the tag, then comes the throw up, from that comes straight letters, and so on and so on. Learn.

[shabbykins]

that was a hella well done video. what was the music?

[mattyboyz1]

im a bristol rapper check my stuff my peoples

[EmmanuelSkatess]

4:32 that 54 taggin shit is also all the way down here in houston its everywheree

[NumberZero999]

2:17 "You got some crack man?"

[cardiffman2008]

its much easier 2 get up in america coz theres not that many cameras i got more respect 4 british writers coz we r taking a bigger risk theres a camera on nearly every corner in britain.

[bitchinnnnn]

u can get artisitic short tags tho like special graffiti writing using a marker pen,,,,, and anyway fuck the government we scrawl what we want

[namezryan]

true dat bruh!

we hittem up!!!

[whi0019]

yee tru tru

[cambie30]

yeah...a nation under cctv, even the busses....but they dont understand our nature

[xPYROMANIAC76x]

that shit at 3:29 thats just shit disgusting

[madguitar2]

00:41 looks like the place

in gta san andreas

lol

[megaplayah]

i don't agree. even in tags there are a fine line between a toy and a skilled writer. respect for taggers that balance it well with throwies and pieces.

[bartoszrost]

yeh there is a difference but u get a lot more longer sentence for doing big pieces so u wanna tag and not get caught or u wanna do a big piece and get fined 10,000 dollars and spend 4 years in jail?

i dunno its changed now

[graffkid4]

tags are what make graff

tags are good you just have to develop good handstyles

[thebluemoonriver]

your camera work is brilliant! interesting video

[islandvideos]

Good video

[SteelCityRoots]

i agree in one way that tagging is something that makes graff but lets be serious who is more likely to get called a toy? a tagger or someone who does pieces? i just have way more respect for a piece than a tag. i say keep your tags as a signature added onto a piece and leave it at that

[shawzie1916]

a nation under cctv

[knockoutbro]

i bett if people wouldnt tag instead bomb with style, were you can read it they would bend the rules a bit but they have to just stop scribbleing on the walls thats just stupid

[tuggersd]

lmao shut up please

[namezryan]

yeah

[minibeamer09]

mos is shit real talk

[LE13GRAFFITI]

hes got some mad ups tohugh bruv

but yh your right hes shit no style

[doodeyboob]

these people are right tags man, ther pretty sad one colours too are so bad (UNLESS ITS an illustration or stencil)

[shanedude93]

no wonder they hate taggers almost all the tags they showed were bunch of fucking toys who cant tag for shit not even one bit of style

[MockStoneLLC]

lol thos kids sound SO FUNNY! no offence.

[LE13GRAFFITI]

oi thats how i speak lol

[dudeshutup2007]

I agree tagging is one of the things that make graff what it is I have been up now for about 4Years or so and I hate people saying "Tagging is just scribbles" And it clearly Is not.

-CONE-

[cuntflakes]

space is a penis

[samra3000]

yhat mos dude is crap. he cant do a piece for shit.

[bambaclad86]

saw a mos piece the other day in king square, bristol, sick!

[ch3rri101y]

that looks like ronaldinho with the long pony tail 1:16 - 1:20

[fuckyoubitch18713]

if u cant peice do not bother writing pieceing is art tagging is scribbles.

[fuckyoubitch18713]

eh if ur a child or still in grade school this stupid disrespectful crap will impress u... but if u r a man this kinda shit just angers u. Wait until u have a home of ur own that u pay for then see a bunch of writing on ur wall and then tell me how u feel.

[Nacho773]

Graffitti isn't done on Churches, homes, or hospitals

[bmanf]

or roads. anything public is allowed.

[Blest247]

mos is shit!

[EJ6ciVic]

but graffiti evolved from tagging.....

[scees99]

thats theproblem with kids today they goo out trying peices and all this and they have no handstlye at all you learn your stuff from your handstyle i dont peice im shit i only do handstyles and throws until i can learn to put my handstyle into a peice

[fysikone]

tagging is the very essens of graffiti, and it will always be.

[xxxxxmaxxxxx]

taggin is a big part of respect and "GRAFFITI"

SAFE "RISK"

[GoldGraffitiKing]

haha i reken.. haha

[zeadtheman]

taggen is crap. you gota admit no one looks at a tag and goes "WHOW THATS SO COOL!" where as REAL graf its more than a name

[bs45ay]

tagging is not real graff?? Get it straight. Back then graffiti was nothing BUT tagging. It basically is what graff is about.

Its not for people to look at and say " WHOA COOL BLAHBLAH"..

pfft. Tagging is REAL Graff.

[RUSTOLIO]

only toys like this dont understand what real graff is been writing for 3 years now, and fucking tired of people telling me that tagging is wack.

[TheBlackAndWhiteMan]

Thats real, I been up for like 1 1/2 years, and people telling me random shit like that... It's annoying, to each his own.

[Leoooonard]

tagging is graffiti just gay ppl just want art and colour man you got it twisted tagging is the first graffiti

[kester133]

if it wasnt for tagging there wouldnt be any pieces

tagging is what started graffiti and its about getting ur name up

[Leoooonard]

yeah man that what i said

[jhansen85]

whine whine whine boo hoooo hooo oh no they wrote graffiti on my wall....

deal with it people and if you want to become an artist too you can dig out your favourite drab white or boring grey and paint over my tag and be content in your little censored universe.

[SK8ordiepunk]

fuck these guys dnt know wat they're talkin about if it wasn't 4 taggin graff wudnt b wat it is 2day n any true artist wud b down with taggin these r all a bunch of toys

[mrhello111]

[SK8ordiepunk]

soz dude ddnt realise

well if thats the case fair enough but how the fuck was i sposed 2 know tht all im sayin is thts the impression u get frm the vid

neways the polices plan aint wrkin if they think gettin ppl like them to say shit like that on documentries ppl will always tag n before ne1 can peice they have to learn to tag simple as

all i can say is i hope they aint given up illegal graff completely coz tht wud b a shame.

[Kr0nicKing]

oh and you know what your talking about.

suck my dick you fucking poser.

skating is for faggots.

[SK8ordiepunk]

i aint interested in startin arguments with little bitches who want to talk trash over the internet all i did was voice MY OPINION on what impression the video gave ME and if i was wrong ok sorry so fuck u and fuck anyone who's so arrogant they can't see past their own little world.

[mikertones]

that little kid said "i reckon" hahaha

[honkinpigs]

were can you get good graffiti paint in bristol

[shogott]

see the good thing about graff is opinions of other people dont mean shit i mean everyone in the world looks down upon graff bu that hasnt stopepd us before you gotta start doing tags to d pieces and shit so when they say i love that but i hate that well i couldnt have done that piece if i didnt do that tag. and actually i started out with throwies but tags come easily to me to bristol graff has some OK stuff but where im from we raised the bar alot L.A. baby!

[wooshDX]

i dont like tagging to but i started out tagging

[TheWhitey]

In the wise words of Mode2: 'A piece is a tag but thicker and bolder with outlines' - Something like that.

[bletso123]

taggin is how u start

name me 1 artist that dint start taggin wit a marker
