Black Claw Presents - Iron Will Video: SABER 

Really loving this deep discussion with Saber. Thank you both for all that you have done for graffiti, and tattoo culture.

Thanks for this interview. All the best to you all.

Definitely love watching SABER interviews. I've been a follower of his work since I saw the L.A river piece when i was a youngster, that sparked the flame of obsession in my soul. It definitely will be a sad day for L.A. and the culture when this guy leaves us, but until then, I'll continue to enjoy the madness he produces.

Ahhhhhh DUUUUUDE!!!!!! I can't really explain it (potentially a reader of this will get this) but when you feel like you've been watching the video and gaining so much energy, inspiration and honest to fuck realness and poke the screen to reveal youre only 19mins 38 secs through the creative energy experience gifted once again by Grime and Blackcaw.... AND ITS FUCKING S A B E R since I first saw some mad flame doused blue dice on Bug's wrist and asked (20 years ago) who did them and he said Grime, raised an eyebrow and explained who you were.. I've been deadass inspired and pushed by how you have shown the capabilities and creative avenues from then till today.. Nice one Bruv! 🖤 ✌

This series is so good/ inspirational as an artist

I had seizures for 10+ yrs. It was very dark, I stopped taking the garbage from doctors and have been seizure free 3yrs. I wish him the best health,met him bk in 99’ in SF. Good dude!💯👌🧛🏻‍♂️ROTS OFA!

The "stomping kepts head in ! " Gotta be a good beef story.

SABER THE BEST!

Loved these fellas. Thanks for keeping shit g real✊🏼

Saber always speaks deep when he does a interview/discussion about the graffiti culture.. His perspective and outlook about graffiti art is interesting and makes you think differently.. One thing I realized from what he has said is that what gang members deal with and see in the hood so do we.. The difference is we go through multiple hoods and never know what could happen..

OOOh Hell yeah. Shoutouts to my boy Aloy and his crew. Thanks to Black Claw for dropping these. Saber the legend. Always

This is by far the best episode of the series. Thank you for the inspiration and energy.

what got my attention was saber saying he don't believe in god/jesus.....saber, likes the word SATANIC, that's hella crazy, the only reason why saber still here is because of the most high,ELOHIM ....god keep blessing saber....hella dope interview....

I cant believe hes 44 ,we are getting old my friends

Saber is 1000% raw energy

Dammm perro if y’all love saber pray for him and hope he finds peace in his heart and finds a relationship with the lord, doesn’t mean you can’t draw and make art still 🎉

God bless you brothers, man

Graffiti is the most important Artistic Movement of the second half of the 20th century up thru the present day. And, the only artistic movement to have been created by children & youth with no formal training. That's why it's so important. Art by the proletariat, for the proletariat. Using the property of the bourgeoisie & the State as its canvas. Turning the artists into outlaws. Truly revolutionary. One day, its importance will be recognized. SABER is easily one of the top 3 most important artists alive. But ranking artists like they are athletes or something is a pointless endeavor. Dude is dope. How he distills his pain and struggles into beautiful pieces of art. Exactly like Van Gogh did. It's crazy how overlooked & stigmatized graffiti still is, despite being somewhat embraced by the art galleries, collectors & big corporations (usually just to sell our own culture back to us.) Your average Joe on the street wouldn't know who the hell Saber is 9 times out of 10. It's crazy how, just like Van Gogh, he is mostly overlooked by the world at large during his actual lifetime. In 50-100 years from now (if civilization is even still around), he will be celebrated as one of the greatest visual artists of his time. The city of Los Angeles will probably spend millions in the name of culture & tourism commemorating his life. And probably re-create the giant river piece. That they spent millions to buff with ugly ass tan paint in the first place. Instead of preserving it like they should have. The art world is so short-sighted & fickle. Don't ever get discouraged if your creations are not widely embraced. Most people don't know shit from Shinola. Especially so-called "experts" and art professors who get paid to sniff 100 year old farts. There's incredible art happening here & now. Don't ever get discouraged by those fools. Make your stuff, whether it be Graff or music or whatever, and rock with it. Don't listen to naysayers. Distill your misery & suffering into beauty. That's real alchemy right there. Saber & Van Gogh are great examples of real, live alchemists. Give the man his roses while he's still with us.

Thank you saber you have blessed us all with this interview and you forever fueled my life with inspiration And drive for my own artistic endeavors that I hope I will one day thank you face to face for the fire you lit under my ass at a young age looking for my own direction in life you helped mold the art world we live and see today and you will be regarded as one of the greatest in history ever no doubt to you the world and all the fortune it has to offer ❤

Huuuge respects to all you guys!!

Space one LWK Luminous Warrior Knights big up to you guys keep the vibe alive keep creating

❤Saber tha genius tha Master..

Hell yeah

"Graffiti is the outlet for all the mishaps and the misfortunes and the weirdos and the fuckups and the sociopaths and everybody who needs an outlet that can't find one" 49:25 Epitome of Graffiti "Graffiti is special. It's also the lowest of the low. It's the most disgusting vile garbage of society."
