People forget we in the 21st century those 1990 20th century type hoods are gone unfortunately and so is the creative energy that brought you graffiti

Used to like seeing the tags in the source back in the day... SEEN was one of my favorites. Inspired me to hit up the old Detroit train station back in the day

Still see a fair share of it in the Bronx new and old

They recently tagged up Lil Tjay’s “I’m Back” billboard on Fordham

That's an oldschool family friend. I used to have a screenprint of that shirt he's wearing. It was done by a crewmate, King157 (TDK), and it says, Be True To Da Game. It had way more stuff on it than the that shirt does though. Might have to see if I can track down that tee. I always kick myself for misplacing that poster.

Lol, that's my cousin in the thumbnail for the next video to play at the end of this one too

I'm not talking about tagging up subway cars and shyt. I'm talking about graffiti and graffiti art in general. shyt isnt even big like that anymore and on top of that, I'm noticing that shyt seemingly got less popular the more hip hop became pop and started to lose its history and roots.
in LA the graffiti community is active as fukk....

my boys hit graff wars every year and get hitup for crazy commissions and mural projects...

one mural project in San Diego getting my boy $70k for 19 days of work

:wow:

Miami's been making use of all kinds of talent with murals on several multi-story buildings. Legit art out there. :ehh:
