From the golden era of graffiti to the new generation of graffiti, Martha stayed loyal to the culture and is still pursuing on capturing graffiti. I really hope young photographers will be influenced by her so that graffiti and photography can work together and keep the culture going!
This came out when my homie died, and me and him use to watch the 5 min with 1up a bunch because of the editing. Rip oliver. Thank you for the memories and the videos bro.
Martha is just legend! How many people can say its was different being and watching DONDI in the yard/platfrom than 1UP? WHAAAAT! Who else can say that?! Insane! The Queen of taking amazing photos of pure graffiti!💯💎
I grew up on Style Wars back in the 80s, so good to see her still loving it and doing what she does and I have been a huge fan of 1UP for years. Every time I travel to European cities I'm always on the look out for their work. What a combo!!!
Woww. What a video. These guy's energy is infectious. 1UP & Martha Cooper collaboration was epic! So cool to see their energies come together. Martha & Henry's book is still inspiring to me after all these years. 👑
This video has not enough likes by far !!!!! If you are a writer from the old days or new you should know who Martha Cooper is period she inspired the world to photograph early graffiti and publish it ...I started in 1982 and to see her on missions with 1up at her age is beyond gangster .thank you so much for doing this together this goes in my book of legendary actions
One of the only forms of "crime" I can think of where something is created rather than destroyed. Thankyou for taking the time to document this. I feel this is important.
From time to time I come back to this video, cuz it’s just crazy, seeing how 1UP is and how they do the pieces, it’s mad, and they had pieces I was like, “how tf did he did that?” After realizing, it’s a crew I had a whole different perspective, when I first got in love with graffiti I thought to myself, “how can I make this work of art? “ started by tagging and now involving to graffiti, it’s just so fun, and the adrenaline rush u have while doing ur piece, makes the game a whole different experience. I can’t thank enough for all the artists.
The momy of all vandals. One of the crew in the Panthéon of this art. So many emotions for me even if I'm not vandal. Thanks a lot for doing it and sharing it!! One love!
Soooo sick!! Always love being able to see the whole process instead of just the end product. Esp the whole train car pieces(or 3 entire cars at the end omfg), and the dude rappelling down the side of that building lmao. I've been to Berlin once, and seeing the graff was probably the most memorable part of my visit.1up, Martha and Ninja are total badasses!
I hope people that don’t like graffiti but still have an open mind see this. The genuine art, talent, planning, community, and so much in this realm of existence.
Bullshit. Kunst und einfach nur große Schmiererei sind zwei paar Schuhe, das hier ist keine Kunst. Ich will Farbenspiele, interessante Muster, Kreativität und nicht ein ausgeblichenes, immerwährend gleiches simples Logo, das verzerrt, schmierig und einfach nur groß groß groß mit einem Feuerlöscher innerhalb von wenigen Sekunden halbherzig gegen eine Häuserwand geschmiert wird.
Love seeing older and younger folks really genuinely getting along well. Got the same feeling from going to the skatepark today, seeing teens skating with an og local
Glad to hear the culture is still going strong, not skated in years but it was always like that. As long as people were chilled and had respect, nothing else mattered
@@aliasofanalias7448 it’s so sick, teens and 40 yr olds dapping eachother up like they’ve been boys for life. And always time to get back on the board, I took a massive break recently, still getting back into it
@@kianr2200 Yeah man always time, my body wouldn't like the slams anymore though I feel, it's easy to eat shit when you're young you just get up and eat shit again lol. One of my best mates now was 14 when I first met him, I was 18 and he was just one of the young skate rats, I always told him if he keeps skating he will be better than me by the time he is my age, and that's what he did, even though he didn't believe me at the time. Years later neither of us skate much but we're really good mates, age gaps are a big thing when you're young but I always found with skating it wasn't a thing, it was like if you skate you must be alright. I miss being a proper skate rat, cruising round with a crew, bombing busy streets, parting the seas of people feeling like you're on top of the world, wearing ripped clothes and shoes and not giving a fuck about it. I remember I skated for about a month with some Emerica's that had the sole completely ripped out from flips where my big toe was, I ended every session with a grazed and bloody big toe but I loved it man, having a little remenisce now lol
@@aliasofanalias7448 man this reply means a lot. You pretty much described the main reasons why I love to skate. As Im writing this, I have holes all over my shoes, they’re barely held together. And I get that about slamming for sure. When ur older u gotta take less risks. Just remember the skate community always there for u if u ever want back in
@@kianr2200 Glad to hear it man, it brings me joy to hear the community mindset continues. Yeah you know all about it! Why I always used to keep duct tape in my bag lol. So much more to it thank skating as well like sitting with your boys on the field watching the sunset after a long session (or sunrise if you write lol), all the funny times and memories that are created, it was easy times. Love bro, really appreciate your message. Maybe when summer comes round I'll get the board out, can't believe I'm one of those guys now 😂
I had my very short graffiti phase in early "high school" years here in berlin and they where everywhere..really the only crew that still stayed in my mind even after 15 years..big love
OMG so gut..... Meine Mutter ist 10 Jahre jünger als Martha und ich hab ihr das gezeigt mit der Aussage: " Wenn Du jemals denkst, Du bist alt dann guck dir Martha an." Darauf gab's erstmal nen Jägi. :D
I absolutely adored this, I was at school when subway art came out and it ignited a passion for street art and photography that lives with me today. I owe this lady a massive thank you. Martha you are a Legend. ❤
My hero, literally. Been a fan since early 90s. She's singlehandedly truly preserving hip-hop history. Even today rappers have zero clue how important she is. Much love MISS COOP.
Lowkey what a fucking vibe, it’s interesting to see how people get the wording so high, and I love the act of vandalism. Idc what people say its brings color to the world 😂 Martha also killed it on the photos. 18:27 OMG LARGE PIECES LOOKING FUCKIN SICK CONGRATS
Most importantly, its a culture, where the individual goes right against the centralized rule. Its an act that asks for anarchy. A remembrance that puts everybody in the power to make a choice above any restriction.
I’m not against anyone expressing their opinion, but when things are presented as fact we must remember your opinion is purely and utterly subjective. 😂 the giant black smiley face is my favorite.
@@tatepierson4626 beside the fact that it was obviously my opinion, it is in fact a fact. It is so much a fact that it's illegal just about everywhere.
@@gekfurian everything they are doing is illegal I can’t understand your stance. I do understand it’s quicker than the other works they do and larger but it’s no different legally. I see it bothers you but that doesn’t mean it’s any more or less vandalism than the rest of the things they do. No one’s house was fire extinguished, same Public spaces as the other pieces they do, same public response with citizens watching and feeling safe not running away.
A Villian is a World Destroyed, There main mission is to take over the world or destroy it. She is a Villian But instead of destroying the world, She takes it over by making beautiful art.

I just believe She deserves a better name rather than "Legend" Great work 1UP
That woman was 75 when she ran with the crew. Unbelieveable. If i'd get one wish in life, i'd like to have her energy now and later on.
They kept her young!
SHE IS A COMMUNIST-HIPSTER
Love the authenticity of Martha. She wasn't just photographing from a far. She was there with them the whole way
The love they have for this old lady is absolutly heart warming. What a champ!
shes been here since day one. she help put graffiti on the map
as a person living in Berlin, I am happy to have these guys creating a culture, a movement and arts in the city!
was bruder
what culture? bombing tags.. thats not culture its turf ownership
Really you see 1up tags everywhere?

They moving together as a 1 team that’s the best part
dude I LOVE that 1UP is still killing it all these years later.
one of my favorite books, really cool seeing the video behind some of the pages. Shout out Martha, truly a legend. Thanks for preserving history!
Sometimes, us delinquent men need an older women to support that creativity. this was super heartwarming watching all the fun they had together
Martha has such a great aura and passion! What a wonderful person
