YEA NYC & SOUTH CALI TAGGERS ARE WORLDS APART...WHEN EVER I GO TO OTHER STATES THEY SAY CALIFORNIANS HAS A HARD COMPLEX THAT WE ACT EXTRA HARD & BIG N BAD AND WE ARE ALL ABOUT RESPECT AND I THINK ITS SOME WHAT TRUE BUT ALOT OF FOLKS ARE ABOUT RESPECT. I TELL THEM ITS A CALIFORNIA THING AND IF YOU NEVER LIVED HERE THAN YOU WONT GET IT...WE LIVE A WHOLE DIFFERENT LIFESTYLE THAN MOST THE OTHER COUNTRY...YOU GOTA BE HARD COMING FROM OUTA CALI..ITS A SWIM OR DROWN LIFE IN CALIFORNIA.

graffiti writing is a violent scene reguardless of the region...here the gang culture influences the graff writers...but in NYC..PHILLY etc...fools still get shot or jumped and beef is just as prevalent out there as it is here...

THE DIFFERENTS IS THEY REALLY TAGG AND DO NICE HIT UPS OVER HERE THERES ALOT OF FOOLS IN CREWS WHO DONT EVEN KNOW HOW TO WRITE IN CALI THEY HAVE MORE OF A VARRIO GANGSTER FEEL TO THEM NOT THE TYPICAL STREET TAGGER FEEL...BACK IN THE 80s AND EARLY 90s CREWS IN SOCAL WHERE MORE ABOUT LIKE THE EASTCOAST ABOUT THE ART BUT NOW IN CALI ITS NUMBERS AND BEEF LIKE A HOOD WITH NO TURF.

theres toys everywhere...

The only difference in Cali is probably the prison politics. Crews beef it everywhere but here your crew will only get so far if you don't join up or pay up, if you know what I mean. If your crew becomes real violent and starts to really put in work that is..


Its really hard to have a crew and not end up having alot of beef and staying all about the art in any city. But to me the whole graffiti scene has really died down alot. maybe its just me but its not how I remember it. In my area atleast. Party crews are the bigger thing now.

yeah but i think that party crews will start to die off after a couple of years it's another one of these new fads youngsters are fallowing into im only 19 but ive heard party crews in the 90's where way different than the ones today
by the way what area do you stay at cray? just curious because all that party crew bullshit is also getting big here where i stay at

THE PARTY CREW THAT WAS BIG WHEN I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL IN THE MID 90s WAS REBEL EMPIRE THEY WERE COMING OUTA POMONA/MONTCLAIR/ONTERIO/RANCHO NOW I HEAR THEY ARE STILL DEEP AND THRO PARTYS BUT LIKE ALL THE OTHERS ARE BANGING ON THE SIDE LIKE THATS THE THING TO DO.

rebels empire yeah i heard of them i think that they are beefing it right now with some FAME Krew from chino i know a couple foos from FAME but they are all talk

IT WAS AT A REBEL EMPIRE PARTY A FEW YEARS AGO IN POMONA WERE SOME MONTCLAIR HIGH YOUNGSTER GOT SHOT IN THE HEAD AND DIED BY SOME 12th STREETER THE KID CLAIM A PARTY CREW CALLED WICKED LATINOS AND MONTE CLARA RIFA/LOCOS THATS WHY I ASK THOSE MCR FOOLS IF THEY ARE BEEFIN WITH 12th ST.

Its some Du Rocs in Upland too.

YEA I HEARD THAT TOO BUT WHERE THEY POSTED UP AT?

7th street is ONE spot. Between mountain and benson. Directly Across the street from Bullwinkles or whatever the new name is. Those apartments.

Dont get caught slippin in the hallway!

Yeah across from Boomer's. I really don't see anything around that area.

But I heard just north west from those apartment's, that theres a little hot spot, with some activity going on.

As a matter of fact, this past summer I did see a lot of Black dudes there.

Yeah, that whole little area see's it's little share of activity. All that between 7th and 9th, benson and mountain. I think there's 5 sets of apartments right there. Even on the otherside of mountain, behind the home depo, that little area (those apartments) had/has it's hot spots. Even up on 11th, in those apartments, and the ones next door to walmart, off benson. There's a few spots. Old spots.








yeah that used to be the spot a while back had some problems with them fools from duroc for a while and shit

the only time when youll see ulo, ugt, and wob, across frm the highschool is when there about to get downt with other tag crews.. usually its 1K
but the damn cops been intervening so much.. and its usually fridays or min days..

MY LIL HOMIE PUNK ONE OF THOSE WOB FROM 5th STREET FOR FUCKEN AROUND WITH HIS PRIMO FROM SUNKIST.
