Much respect to you min one.All the rtw cats were my idols as a subway graffiti writer,(RICH,NE,IZ,QUIK,SACH,BOE,etc).I remember the 80's like it was yesterday.I went walking by the a yard in brooklyn the other day and saw in the concrete pillars an" iz" throwie and and "BO" tag(this last writer is underrated,he killed the a and c lines in the 80's.).I remember alot of graff writers were scared of bombing the dewey yards in coney cause of RTW.Young writers feared RTW and with a reason these guys didn't fuck around.
True story what you wrote? I always had a hard time understanding how RTW had a seriously feared reputation. Just looking at min, quik, bilroc, they seemed like hippies. I wasn't there tho.
@@DanielSmith-br1zi they were hippies. Bill Rock and Crunch were tough mofos. Rasta and Rust were deep into martial arts. It didn’t get psycho until the 80’s and especially the ball busters in the 1 tunnel
Yo MIN I got your Subway art graffiti poster you signed for me at South Street seaport New York some years ago I got it framed and hanging on my living room wall... Much respect to you.
I'm mad curious to know who his pops was. There's a bit of a recurring theme with writers who put in a lot of work that come from well off families. Not taking away anything he's done but it is an interesting coincidence.
His dad owned a number of pharmacies in midtown. Min mentioned it in a recent interview with the Museum of Graffiti. Great interview, check it out if you get a chance.
i dont know why he isnt doing canvas or anything to put up for sale. all these old school writers are making dough in the galleries these days. ths dude should be balling!
@@villiantwo Who knows man. Seems like he`s had a hard life and has a steady job now taking care of his daughter. Maybe that`s balling enough for him after all he`s been through. And not everybody is horny for the limelight like the ones that are eating off of canvases
Whoever appeared on "Wild Style" got famous and people know their names and pieces up to the present day. As for NE / Min One, he´s certainly one of the very charismatic writers who have been portrayed. It might help nowadays cats seeing his personal development - and how his son is "his heart". I´d like to know what he thinks about present equipment; it is so much more suitable than it used to be, even on second-rate surfaces...
@@jiveturkeylee This a@@hole robbed one of the nicest people I know at gunpoint and was treacherous to more than a few people who thought he was their friend. With back up of course. As human beings, we earn respect. Compassion for him ? Sure. His life seems fairly crappy as a result of his actions. . Respect. No.
No disrespect to Min but I always think about this interview when I see a Min tag and it looks like it was done by a child learning how to write the fill in on that gate is actually comparatively better then any NE I've ever seen and that he'll still do today with over 40 years of experience doing it
Those NE throw ups all over the ding dongs were ugly . He was quantity over quality. Then he went down crack alley into a hell realm and you can still hear in his voice the life path he chose.
@@kagyu1 how come crack DESTROYED almost every "legend" of graffiti from NYC, Philly and Baltimore??.. you meet them now and they're either doing really good work with AA and Sobriety, or a born again Christian doing great things, or they are finally living a normal life.. they absolutely LOVE talking about 1981-1992ish.. I know all them types dudes.. "I remember back in 85 me and so&so did the 1 stop and then finished our cans with hangover tags on the edge of the building all the way around". It's like how come you dudes never ever ever bring up what you were up to 1993-2007ish. How come? How come we don't know where all the legends and kings were in the mid 90s to late 2000s.. lololol

Dude shouldn't hate on that lil piece. No offense, hes a legend after all. ..but his "N-E" wasnt anything special. At all. But either way Im a fan. Liked his pieces a lot. Unique
balle 733 it’s sexy, graffiti taste is subjective and rules don’t exist. Disproportionate letters can be cool, it’s definitely not toy. Also many of the styles in the 70s and 80s were still developing and kinda whack by today’s standards. Lotta old writers are just self righteous and stuck in the past. Is what it is, take it with a grain of salt.
balle 733 those are some of the best known writers of the 80’s, obviously their work is great, but you’d have to admit that they too started as toys. That’s all I’m saying. They were also the minority of writers then, most people copied them. Styles blossomed in the 80’s. Look at 70’s graff, most of it was garbage by today’s standards. You can’t argue this. They were literally building the basis of style. They didn’t have people to copy, they created their own styles. A lot has changed since then, many people borrow from them, sure, but styles are still being created too. West coast graff is hella different, some of it barely resembles 80’s/70’s ny stuff. You can’t trash all of it though, a lot of it is really good. That’s a classic 90’s flow there, letters are fine, maybe off kilter but that’s called style. Look at literally anything ich has ever done. And also don’t pretend they had time to sit there and make sure every line is perfect, lol. You sound like you never bombed before. You probably just saw style wars and think you know graff now lol. And taste will always be subjective. Any writer will tell you that. I hate when people act like dictocrats about graff. We started this in defiance of rules, don’t tell people what to do. People will try new things, if it looks good it looks good. And if everyone did the same thing we wouldn’t have styles.
balle 733 west coast writer. Not from Europe, just a RUclips name. No point arguing with a 14 year old tryin to flex. All of those people you mentioned wrote throughout the 80’s. They began in the 70’s and kept painting into the 80’s. Most of their best known work is from that time. Never said they were garbage either. If you are gonna diss what was on that door then you might as well diss every other NY bomber like ja, sane, bruz, sace, smith, mq, kez5, etc. Learn about graff before you speak. Just cuz someone from the 80’s calls it trash doesn’t mean it’s trash. Old writers do this all the time. Look at cope, literally everything he does is dissing other writers. JA does this too, it’s NY culture to be a bit arrogant in graff, don’t take it so seriously me suburbs of Iowa bomber lol
joeyy dvsn people tend to go by the script and play into the style wars drama with cap. Dudes a bombing legend, that’s The core of graff, anyone who judges it might as well call themselves a street artist.
