More War4…Sorry For The Lack Of Updates

Tuesday, November 27th, 2007

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

Tuesday, November 20th, 2007

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!

Cameras Are Popping Up Everywhere!

Wednesday, October 10th, 2007

Well, it finally looks like cities and states are spending some real money on graffiti abatement, by installing still and video cameras, along with motion detectors in some cases. Here’s a perfect example:

Law enforcement in Kern County has turned high-tech in its fight against graffiti.

With a click of a camera, law enforcement will now be able to catch taggers, at least on tape.

The Kern County General Services Department and Sheriff’s Department hope a talking surveillance camera will deter taggers. It says, “Stop. Your picture has been taken. It is illegal to spray graffiti or dump trash in this area. Leave the area now.”

The camera first warns verbally, then flashes a picture when someone walks by.

For every camera site, the county said they have seen a 95 percent drop in graffiti.

“We’ve had some real interesting pictures that we’ve shot over already that we wish we could have shown you tonight, but we have some really good shots, and they’re doing a really good job,” said Richard Johnson from the Graffiti-Off program.

TKO hits the mainstream media yet again

Monday, April 9th, 2007

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!

Saturday, March 10th, 2007

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:
