Graff Guy — Thu, 29 May 2008 05:24:57 +0000

Blasting on the nightly news here in southern California on FOX, BUKET has been picked up by police. He was found, you guessed it, through his and others’ postings on YouTube.

A notorious graffiti vandal who features his work on YouTube has been arrested.

Cyrus Yazdani, also known by his graffiti tag “Buket,” was arrested Tuesday when he showed up for an appointment with his probation officer, the Sheriff’s Department said.

Yazdani was booked on multiple felony counts of vandalism for allegedly causing thousands of dollars in property damage.

“JEL” – TKO; Featured on America’s Most Wanted

Graff Guy — Sun, 23 Mar 2008 04:18:29 +0000

I can’t believe this is the first time I heard about this story as it’s been on AMW’s website since February and was also aired on local network TV last week on the infamous television show.

Here’s the details:

Cops say Candy Ellen Srichandr is bad news: a graffiti artist and a stripper, they say she’s gone from defacing public property with her spray paint to taking part in a heinous murder. When gunfire erupted at a SoCal art show, a family man who Srichandr considered a rival was dead, and Candy was nowhere to be found. Now, police have put this Valley Girl where she belongs: in a cage.

That’s a direct quote from the America’s Most Wanted website.

The story will be airing within the next half hour on FOX 11 (channel 11 on basic cable) in southern California.

More quotes:

In the middle on the night on February 8, 2008, cops say Candy Srichandr was nabbed in Long Beach, Calif. Investigators were tracking her journey with the assistance of your leads, and they knew for sure she was hiding out in St. Louis and parts of Colorado.

It wasn’t until an anonymous tipster contacted a U.S. Marshal in Los Angeles to tell him that Srichandr may be hiding out at a residence in Long Beach. Our investigator and his team headed out to the location — but not expecting to find Srichandr.

They honestly thought she was still in Colorado. To their surprise, she was inside the residence, arrested her immediately, and shipped her off to the Van Nuys station in the San Fernando Valley. She’s locked behind bars, and awaiting her hearing with a judge.

More to come!

UPDATE:
I’ve been getting loads of feedback about this post and you guys need to calm down.
About posting images of graff when I find them: If you don’t want certain people to know where you are and where you’re getting up then maybe you shouldn’t get up at all? Don’t blame me for your own stupidity, you shouldn’t even be graffing in illegal spots to begin with.
About “name dropping”: I post the names of the writers where it’s already legible! If I can’t read it or don’t recognize the writer myself I won’t post a name. And isn’t having a handle enough to hide behind anyways? I mean, that’s what they’re used for, right? So, please, stop blaming others for your own stupidity. Pzz.

Sorry for the lack of updates recently. We’ve been really busy out hittin’ spots, by that I mean snappin flicks at some hot spots. So get ready for all of that.

Anyways, here’s another teaser clip of the new graff/fight flick comin’ out soon called War 4. Two TKO members do a huge TKO roller around the 91/110 interchange. Enjoy!

New War 4 Preview Clip: Buket – TKO

Graff Guy — Tue, 20 Nov 2007 20:49:45 +0000

The whole War videos aren’t really “my thing”. I’m more into the graff than the fights and skating, but whatever. Anyways, this hot new teaser clip of the new War 4 video coming out soon shows Buket from the ultra-infamous crew TKO sliding off the side of a bridge on the 101 freeway and spraying a throw-up in broad daylight. Cars zooming by and all. Enjoy!

TKO hits the mainstream media yet again

Graff Guy — Mon, 09 Apr 2007 08:58:48 +0000

So, I’m searching for some new stuff to post tonight when I stumbled onto this news piece from Las Vegas, NV local news KVBC, News 3 Nightside. In the video piece they basically speak about the trials and tribulations associated with cleaning up graffiti in Las Vegas, all-the-while showing a brand new throw-up of TKO on the back of a suspended freeway sign and on another suspended freeway sign the moniker SWYPE is thrown-up (fairly clean for where it’s at) in black and white.
Check out the following link to see the video and read the news article.

WISHM – RUH: Busted!

Graff Guy — Sun, 11 Mar 2007 07:07:36 +0000

You read that title right! Local (to me) graffiti vandal WISHM from the crew RUH has been hunted down and incarcerated by local authorities through his YouTube account.

Yesterday was the first time that I caught wind of WISHM being caught by authorities (thanks to the ultra-famous news agency News Corp, aka Fox11) and is in custody and facing felony vandalism charges for crimes committed in San Bernardino County and Los Angeles County. It seems that his accomplice MEEK is still at large though.

Here’s the video which caused his downfall:

UPDATE:
I caught this flick on my way back from the bombest Chinese restaurant this side of China, Capitol Chinese Seafood Restaurant (Diamond Bar, CA):

P.S. Sorry about the quality, we were driving and I caught it out of the side of my sight at the last second, luckily we were stuck in traffic.
And another to prove it was the duo:
