The real crime is letting those buildings go to waste!
¿What would the GIV pay to get his "GIV" "I ♥Venice" tag spray painted up there?
Graffiti won’t be cleaned up on these towers until someone purchases the project and completes it, the developer ran out of fund therefore no Security and no Clean up can be afforded
Oh there's going to be a Window Cleaning company cheap enough
That’s what L.A. is hoping for. They want to “force” a sale of that property, so L.A. can reclaim it from the Chinese that currently own it.
This 'clean-up' is not a bunch of guys painting it over with paint rollers. this is going to cost seven figures.
Such a shame. So much empty space and still people can’t afford rent and have to live on the streets. This society is embarrassing.
LET SOME MORE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS IN! THAT WILL SOLVE THE PROBLEM!!!
Building isn’t finished.
People aren't homeless because there aren't places to live.
It is hard to believe they started this development and "ran out of money", there needs to be some kind of plan in place if a developer runs out of money then new owners should be appointed somehow if some entity flakes out, because this is a disaster just letting them deteriorate and get vandalized. This is the bigger story the graffiti just brought it to light
They don’t live on the streets cause rent is too high. 😂 they already know they live there cause they choose to, and they refuse help, like 92 percent of them. Many of them aren’t even from California.
What a shit hole LA is turning out to be if you want to graffiti do it on your own house and respect other people property.
this place was foreclosed and never finished. Some chinese company.
Meh, that abandoned and unfinished building is an eye sore. If they’re gunna leave a mess like that sitting around why not make it look cool (not my taste either). Screwing up a luxury apartment project so bad it’s just sitting there is more shocking to me than this level of vandalism.
How is it hurting u?
It's now an even bigger eyesore.

I'll tell you what if you grew up in venison and Santa Monica in the '60s and then to see what it looks like now you would cry. I've been out to visit. I don't think I'll ever come back again.
The old charming beach towns with character and characters are gone. Now it’s a bunch of rich people who have taken over and erased everything that made the beach communities so special!
I watch color films of LA and Hollywood in the 1930s 40s and 50s wow it was an incredible place back then compared to the toilet it has become.
Tijuana used to be nicer when it was mostly dirt streets. It was safer, food was safer, people were chill. Bullfights, just like in Spain. Old school.
I heard East LA was nice back then!

In defense of the police, the District Attorney Gascon will not prosecute many crimes, nor enforce laws that are on the books. Therefore it is a waste of time for the police to chase after these taggers as the DA's office will do nothing.

It’s vandalism plain and simple. Like a dog pissing paint on a fire hydrant, marking its territory. You won’t find graffiti in Japan. That’s why they have strict immigration laws.
If they spray painted 🎨 the iconic statues, would that be considered art over art 🤔
If this is art then: homeless encampments are residential rustic living art. 1000s of old motorhomes on the street are vehicular art. Pooing on the sidewalk is excretory art. Shooting up heroin and fentanyl is medical art. Home invasion is residential exploratory art. Shoplifting is unlicensed product borrowing art. You can go on forever. LA City of Angels.
Imagine giving tattoos at bars to unconscious people as a prank and saying "it's just art bro calm down"

Thank the Los Angeles city council and LAPD for collaboration on this great work of art.

Graffiti and Art are two different things. Those eyes at the very end of the video are art. Code words, tags, signs or what ever you call the meaningless, to most, letters and numbers is just vandalism. Then when others tag over part of it it just looks like garbage.
You want tax money to be used to protect the property of a chinese billionaire ?
@@rubenser1454 no I just want vandals put in jail when they're caught. That's clearly not happening anymore if they feel so emboldened to do this.

LA has DEFINTELY changed in the last. 5 years
You may have noticed that most futuristic, dystopian, post-apocalyptic movies depict these kind of heavily graffitied abandoned city landscapes, so its a self-fulfilling prophecy. This is also a reflection of the disenchantment of todays youth with modern society.
Wow - 'Back to the Future 2' is really becoming a reality in LA.
And Mike is there being his cheery self, immune to the decay of the city he lives in.
@@taoist32 I wouldn't say he's immune considering he's covered and helped some of LA's homeless.
It became a reality in 2016, all over America, when Biff became president. If we get Biff again, we're all screwed. Everyone blames the Democrats, but what have the Republicans done for us? I want to know. Other than block democrats from getting anything done, like the new border law they are blocking to stop more illegals, because they don't want Biden to have a "win". That's not Biden's win, that's our win they are preventing.
or robocop ... biden is dick jones and BLM is clarence's gang.
i for one embrace a dystopian future
more eye pollution...its a sign of decay
I AGREE.
Its a worldwide issue. Governments turn a blind eye to it and it goes unpunished. Meanwhile, once beautiful cities like Athens, Paris, Berlin, and London are being destroyed. The list is much longer if you watch any YT travel vloggers. It's not only abandoned buildings either. We're currently in Màlaga Spain and are shocked by the graffiti and tagging, especially on historic sites that are over 800 years old. Disgusting.
New form of pollution..... totally agree with that statement.
Graffiti in Europe is absolutely appalling. Far, far worse than L.A. or any American city. One place you see almost no graffiti? Japan. Super clean, organized country.
THE ILLUNINATI WANT THE WESTERN CULTURE DESTROYED
Nah. Not “Governments turn a blind eye to it and it goes unpunished.” /
Berlin gonna Berlin. Berlin is one helluva place... There is nothing beautiful about Paris either. They are cities....
It’s disgusting. Sorry from a normal society member.
😂 yeah
I work in the railroad industry. Most of them are tagged and defaced.
I was in the building about two weeks ago. You should see inside of it it’s worse. And most of them are not kids are grown ass men. 25-40 years old

They need to be arrested and charge
And then remove it.
That's not art. It's a mess. They should be fined thousands of dollars for this. $10,000 and up, and order them to clean it up.
the guy who did the project is broke and in jail now... for stealing basically
@@dertythegrower that doesn't mean these vandals have the right to destroy property. Graffiti IMO is garbage when they destroy property. It's like cats spraying their territory. Disgusting.
You'd rather see kids getting doped out on the sidewalk instead of painting their names as big as they could on the side of an abandoned building. Sad, you must be a Christian
@@SomeOldLesbianliterally nothing was destroyed. Notice, we didn't break any windows or throw debris over the balconies onto cars and things below. Nobody has been hurt. Because we are artists.

@@jacksonordo659 so who's going to clean that up? It's vandalism.

Graffiti, at least this kind, started in NYC. Most parts of LA do not have any graffiti, actually. Gets painted over. DTLA has become a wasteland, though. Most of us locals never venture in there unless you're going to a concert or sporting event.

people commenting against the graffiti? What about the city and contractor who allowed this to go ahead and sit derelict for years? That's the real crime here, not graffiti ffs
That's what I'm saying. It's just sitting there taking up physical space not being used for anything. Knowing Los Angles, I'm sure some homeless folk or low income folk would like to have something actually affordable yet not do shit about that.
The entire skyscraper is an eye sore. Who cares if ppl graffiti an abandoned unfinished building.
It's like seeing a defuct plaza that sits there for 50 years but bitch when a couple of ppl do something with it. Like dude why do you care now?
I heard that Jose Huizar, the former LA council member, accepted bribe money from the chinese developers who own that building. That building has been empty for 5 years because construction was halted. Huizar was arrested in 2020. Coincidence?

@@michaelvanhorn3271 nah bruh. anyone who knows even a little bit about art knows this is indeed art. it takes skill and talent to do this stuff, i know because i do it myself :)
I truly hate graffiti 'artists'. It isn't art. It is destroying someone else's private property. And even if you did spray something that took some artistic talent to do so, you still forced it upon someone who probably spent alot of money on the property you are 'beautifying'. Ever heard a story about a graffiti artist spray painting his own house up? Nope? neither have I. There's a reason for that. He wants his stuff to stay nice and new looking
Wahh wahhh wahhh 🎻 🎻🎻
not all graffiti is done on private property 😂😂 relax
Depends where they graffiti. Some are cool, but doing this on people's property is a real d-bag move.
It's art by definition
@@bentonja668 No, it is vandalism. Art is something you do on permitted walls or buildings. There is a lot of beautiful graffiti art around the city, but this ain't it.
There's no real consequences, that's why it's so excessive
This is what Gavin Newsom leaves in his wake.
Oh, but this state is the "10th toughest state on crime" according to him. Delusional dude.
If people consider this to be art, how would you feel if I randomly came around to your house, car, and other possessions and just randomly sprayed whatever I wanted all over it? Still keen on it now? You wouldn't want to stifle my art and creativity now, would you?
One can both consider it art and not want it on their property without permission
@@rheel6747
Amateur Art!
Meh, I don’t feel that bad for the company. Through mismanagement they ran out of money and had to abandon construction. They let a lot of people down. Leaving an unfinished building sitting there doing nothing is an eyesore. The graffiti artist just added some flare to a sad mess.
@@marjoryrainey73 Some of it, yes, but a lot of those guys are seasoned vets in their game

Graffiti is beautiful it gives character to the street it also gives easy signals in what type of neighborhood you step in.

@@billmurray4206true. LA has always been this way. But something has changed over the past five or six years. The energy of this city has also changed. It feels like it's dying.

While I appreciate art this is just vandalism and scribbles and it looks like one huge arm pit. People so entitled to do whatever they want to private property with no consequences is a bad recipe for society in general.

I’ve always loved the original graffiti artists from NYC in the late 1970s and early 80s. Watch the documentary “Style Wars” for more info on that era. To me this is going overboard. In NYC we have designated areas for graffiti and even tho many will tag outside these areas, it’s dealt with so it doesn’t get out of control. Billion dollar apartments… just unreal to think how that money can turn into garbage. Thanks for the video Mike!
Toy lol
nobody uses the designated areas because it takes away the concept of graffiti
What a coincidence, right before the grammys 🤔
That’s not art that’s vandalism.
hello everyone did you know that that building that just had been tagged by graffiti artists has caused over 1.7 million in Damages and all of it has to be removed by a special company with special machinery and chemicals that could be a little bit dangerous for the environment I don't consider this art I consider it gang dirt as it is made with a chemical to begin with this is not a fine art painting
I also lived in Berlin Germany for a little while and I'm disturbed at many things they have tagged as a lot of people have no respect over the item they spray paint like a memorial or even a statue should be off limits to all taggers even worse would be items where commercial businesses are trying to sell their goods most people get turned off with graffiti
Berlin is the L.A. of Germany. On every level. Politicians to homelessness to drugs.. graffiti... everything
nobody care about your point of view, what is graffiti or art for you. Nobody ask
well weather ya like it or not ITS ART. Anyone who knows even a little bit about art can agree. This sure is art weather you like it or not. And as for ppl in germany tagging memorials i can agree with u that its wrong. As a graffiti writer myself, me and most writers have certain rules and boundaries we do not cross such as cars, memorials, churches etc. Honestly probably some kids new to the scene that thought it was a good idea to tag that memorial.

I've been to China, have family from former USSR, I've never seen or heard of this kind of thing in either. But I could have missed it of course. Come to think of it the Chinese have alot more respect for their cities than Americans do. And I know the same is true in Russia. You don't see this kind of bravado in these crimes like you do in Los Angeles. I live in the foothills like 20 miles outside LA and that's about as close as I feel like getting to it nowadays.
China and Russia are pretty homogeneous societies where people have respect for their countries. Los Angeles is extremely heterogeneous with many residents from other parts of the world who don't feel Los Angeles is "their" city. So they have no respect for it.

People should respect their environment. Scum of society in L.A. the whole place needs a complete overall as it's becoming the sewers. The taggers had the nerve. No wonder peoples taxes are getting higher and fewer services get provided. Thanks to the guy who shared his drone footage. As you say there legsl places to paint.

removing paint is a job I wouldn't want.
I do HOA work for a few communities, which also means covering graffiti on sidewalks and pressure washing signs. It's easy to do and does give me work, but its kind of annoying. I'm all for graffiti in a legal spot, but doing it in a place where its going to be removed is stupid, and a waste of everyones time, including the artist.

You should come up to me I didn’t know you
You mean the containers? 🙂
Sitting since 2019?!?! Where is the city council in all this? Leaving such a huge project unfinished is a blight on its own. The city should have expropriated the property and completed the build and turned the project into a community housing effort within the first quarter after the construction was stopped. The bottom line would always go to the negative and costs will be beyond the property value but at least the units would be in use. I don't endorse the vandalism but it points out the city's need to clean this mess up before what's left turns useless and dangerous from exposure. It is probably the prettiest statement towards urban decay in LA and the city needs to step up with lawyers and cash.
Wahnsinn! What a mess! 😳

where do they get the money to afford the spray paint? Do they buy it by the pallets?
Buy??lol😂😂😂🗡
They steal it. It's part of the subculture
Most spray paints are locked up these days.
@@darlenemc3586 went to college with a graffiti artist . the guy said him and his crew bought in bulk at $2 per can. He said back in the day it was easier to steal but now cans are behind the register or locked up. He also said a couple guys of the guys he paints with have sponsorships and are given free paint. They also keep left over paint from commissioned works.
This graffiti reminds me of old Glasgow town (Scotland) where the gangs had their tags written on the walls. Enter their territory at your own risk.
Its not the same as graffiti though
That’s what happens when you leave an unfinished project and this so called artist get a rush or natural high off these crimes.
Property damage, trespassing, & what else? Public nuisance? & no shame in their game. It's on other news that they are stealing everything that is not too heavy to be carried away, Internal building damage
Nice work keep going ❤
It's not even good art. Just some random logos.
Taggers... 1990's... I remember undercover cops said they were Hollywood, can they make a film, then arrested the taggers after they sprayed up while on cameras.
Wow
In Portland Oregon were I live now the graffiti has gotten worse day by day. Last time I drove through a few weeks ago it was really bad. Now California has 4 illegals on there way who were released from jail for beating a NYPD officer wtf is going on in this country its sad
Thanks for the video
When you see this and then, see the statue of David by Michelangelo, he was only 26-years-old, that, is art.
Ur the best GIV!! Let’s go get you to that million!!!!
I’m more upset about how many people can’t afford a place to live than I am that people painted on a giant building that won’t be affordable and blocks out the sun.
Gruesome is dead set in destroying the state.
AND THE ILLUMINATI THAT CONTROLS HIM AND PAYS HIM. This is the work of the upper controlling powers of the world that are trying to take down Western society. That's why there are allowed open borders. The target is to take America and Europe down to third-world status to form a one-world communist government. They want a full collapse to bring in communism is the ultimate goal of the Illuminati power elites. Not to mention they are forming and planning global famine. Bill Gates and China buying farms and now created new forms of meat in a lab.
Tagging is the lowest form of art
So you admit its art
It's not art

Something like that could house a lot of people.
The residents of LA love this stuff,otherwise why would they keep voting blue. They’re getting it ready for the homeless to move in.

Wow I wonder how many cans of paint they used for that creation of art as they call it ? I'm not sorry to say little by little America needs to stop letting people make a shit hole out of this country .
