You're philosophic thoughts are very enlightening and they actually made me feel better. I'm not like most of dudes in your audience, I've been hitting panels for about a year and a half now after several years of street bombing. Whenever I'm out at the lines, alone late at night, I think alot about my life. I have an extremely nihilistic point of view and I have fallen over the years into heavy drugs and intense depression. trains are one of the only things that gets me out of bed at this point (Ichabod said the same thing in an interview and I literally got shivers, I knew exactly what he meant).... Its really difficult to find the strength to pick yourself up once you're down in that bottomless pit. Thanks for your words of wisdom regarding life GR
Hey mate, I hear ya. How have you been in the couple years that have passed since you posted this? I hope all is well, I have been trying to get better too.
Killer video as always GR, love the philosophic rants they're my favorite part of the videos not many people touch on these subjects anymore. Shout out the Stussy tag on the other page bleeding through! 🤘🏼
"You make art for your own amusement...its just a past time. It's what you do. Like If you really wanna do like real art for yourself i guess, don't worry if people arent buying it or not, it don't matter..or if you feel like people don't think it's important or whatever. People didn't think Van Gogh was important if he was alive." Quality ass Advice
Love your preaching at the same time as you doodle, most of the stuff is already heard but can't be said too much. Always better than people just saying what they're doing in their vids. You definitely inspired me to continue with art. Thanks!
green ranger you are the BEES KNEES!! I LOVE LISTENING AN WATCHIN WHILE I DRAW ALONG YOUR THE MAN!! KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DO!! WAITING ON MY ORDER FROM YOU NOW!!
Great video my man! I recently got into graff and the process of putting it on the walls and into the sketchbooks is what really did it for me. So to me it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to get into trouble and be stressed doing it illegally when i can enjoy myself for hous on a legal wall... Let the haters scream till they they drop... I'm having the time of my life. Cheers from Austria!
this i agree on... learn to troll on the internet, and in IRL too. and i'm a nerd since 1987, and (former) writer since 1993... did you know that many writers are nerds?
I'm a older cat and I been catching tags since bout 88 til now I can do throwies and the whole get down but in the end I love to tag. In my opinion I feel I'm pretty decent in my flows what do u think am I just not evolving or is there alot of other cats who feel like me?
peace bro. I'm 38 and your rant is accurate. whaddaya gonna do. times change. kids are computer ppl. gentrification is a real thing. But yo, I've been meaning to ask you, and this is in no way a negative dig on your work, I genuinely dig and actually.love your work and vids, but you aren't one to worry about tangents, huh? where lines meet as opposed to overlap. where your arrow's 3D meets the left side of the E. or the bottom of the U where it butts up to the D (haha). yours overlap, yechnically, but its so slight i almost dont see it. maybe it's just my steeze but tangents irk me big time. idk why I even bring it up. I have nothing but love for ya, bro. You're an awesome artist and teacher. peace to you. salute.
Making graff great again, keep up the vids man. I aint wrote much in years and you got me wanting to tag again lol been 15years since i last did a piece even lol
Yo bro your stuff is insane, you are so skilled, love your videos. So I'm literally just trying to get into graf I'm over in UK n don't even know what markers/pens to use. Like the pink you went over the blue with, could you give me some help n tips. Would really appreciate it bro??
Chartpak markers r the alcohol markers and then the markers he lays over with r molotow high solid paint markers. Look up molotow HS acrylic paint markers g
Hey man don't trip on people's negativity they need to know everyone is different in life nobody's the same n sometimes you can't rush an artist because art to me comes n goes if your not feeling it you don't get good art ..if your feeling if it flows .that's how it I'd for me I got way to much stuff to catch up on too trust me 😆.keep it up first time ever Checking out ya stuff pretty cool 😎 👌 I'm gonna subscribe 😎
Hey, i just wanted to say, you hit the nail right on the head with the whole nihilism thing. One leads to another, and they all end badly. It sucks, coming from personal experience. But, on a lighter note, i love the blackbook videos man! Also, do you know when you're gonna be doing the wxyz thing?
the music is before the Khmer Rouge era mostly mid 60's into the 70's my mom used to listen to the Cambodian rock n roll music of that time when she was a teenager. Meanwhile my dad was in the Khmer Republic army fighting against the Khmer Rouge communist until 1975 when the communist Khmer Rouge won the long 5 year war.
What doke did that pisses some peole off is how young he is and the fact that he became so good and piecing his name that hes just done with it.. hes entered the next phase and anyone whose seen what he can create the boy aint lying....imagine feeling that way.. like thats so symbolic of his artistry.. . U gotta think there's prolly all sorts of people that think there on the level he's on.. and people have been graff battling for years.. with one choice hes elevated his craft and these im just as goods know its over... they lost.. no one will ever make a decision to stop using there name becuz getting up has simply became beneath him hahahahhe.... personally i do graff becuz the pure happiness u see when a child ruins every wall in the house with two crayons amd he knows better cuz he keeps doing it smiling the whole time... when i choose to engage in the timeless activity of making a mess thats someone elses problem knowing ur not gonna ever clean it up
Anyone who’s leaning towards a nihilistic mindset should check out Albert Camus, he takes the ideas that take people down that nihilistic road and twists it to a positive, and how to live instead of wondering why. Great videos I’ve been enjoying since I found them recently
Pre-Khamer Rouge in style and some of the songs are from the Cambodian night club scene before >sad things happened to people. I dunno, dude. Do you think young artists in their late 20's are sometimes maybe struggling because >bills and having to weigh their passion against holding a job that provides for their material needs?
I dig what your say but i think its better explained like this... abuncha of people walking in a river upstream all taking about how terrible rivers are and its pointless becuz its so hard all the time.. then some one flys by them going the other way on a boogie board.. the river is life and those are two ways to live life.. cuz life isnt us going anywhere in the river its just an amount of time we spend in it... so spend as much time as u can going with the flow.. lifes to short to be miserable the whole time and complaining on top of it
Your talking about Doke and grim, but people that are saying they don't like the new graffiti like there are rules to graffiti, because there are no rules there never has been, but I'm 19 and have done "graffiti since I was 11, I don't like Doke or grim, because, I think grim isn't a graffiti writer, he's just a artist he can't do lettering he's shit at it, Doke is better are lettering and is more of a graffiti writer, I don't really like all his stuff but what pisses me off the most is that younger kids are picking up his "style" or learning off him and more people are becoming what was known as toys with hit letters and no flow or style, there are amazing graffiti writers out there that should be the ones setting the example don't be talking tips off of Doke or grim, there are no tips make your own style don't rush it at the end of the day the longer you spend on graffiti the better you get and the more you advance in your style.
You just saying all that really shows you haven't really met real writers in the game. My krew and I where hitting trains and a crew wanted to catch us slipping cause we went over them but we cleared it out and we cool now. They putting us on game with rules that go down in yards cause every yard is different. We were told to not go over the numbers, reflective square shits and pick up your fucking trash. These are OGs in the game some are in the seventh letter
@@pvalley3907 I don’t care about people going on trains, I understand there is a history to graffiti but that doesn’t make you good. I’m now 23 and have only improved, I believe my graffiti is up there with anyone’s. Just because I haven’t sprayed all over walls and trains doesn’t make my lettering any worse. I’m currently working on canvas.
@@88MaGiiCzZ88bruh I met writers that are in their 30s with kids still killing trains and walls and it does make you good you can say you can do this and that but where's the work you putting in and trains and walls is for people to see your shit improving. You can't compare yourself to revok Saber atlast gkae gray tie reyes augor heal or close to anyone. You're not a graffiti writer you just a artist
bruhh, your D looks like a rejected teletubby w that top arrow lookin ass, the E looks like the adopted child fighting their genetic metabolism issues. i know you can do nice shit but no matter how many terms you correct this piece needs help XD xD
on some real shit, no hate bro. respect for taking the criticism well and youre absolutely right about style. stay up GR, you earned my respect today hahaha
CAN Control haha it's cool man, I was just so hyped about it and this day because I thought he said, wednesday was the last day to send in and that it will be featured in friday's video. I respect him ofcourse:)
