Just to Get a Rep - full movie - graffiti hip-hop documentary 

Graffiti absolutely is a part of hip hop culture what people have wrong is that in actual fact graffiti helped influence and create hip hop, not the other way round.

Been A writer since 1994. And JAone was up all over the city then and still bombing in 2020. Sane, ve, kez5, omni, R.I.P.

Seeing us perform and paint 25 years ago is amazing! Thank you for this.

My favorite thing about Beat Street is that it was filmed during the Winter and it captured the fashion especially sheep skin coats, the shell Addis’s and what it also captured was our rooms all looked that,

I love Graff. I love the smell of the paint. The sound of the marble. All of it

Grew up in the Graffiti scene in the 80s Graffiti was never part of the Rap scene, its a fact, NYC was divided. It wasn't until it was marketed that all 3 were combined.

I wish more people, especially writers (obviously), knew their history! Many of the new generation of writers coming up, have no clue about the history of graffiti. I'm happy to see a solid documentary with many of the 1st train writers, the style originators, stating as a matter of fact, that "modern day" Graffiti was being done well before "Hip-Hop" was born! People like Cornbread started in the late 60's! Cholo-Writing in the west coast & south west, started long before that! Even before the invention of Spray Paint in 1949. So many of the older writers didn't even listen to Hip-Hop when it started being produced. Plenty of today's writers don't listen to Hip-Hop! It was appropriated & packaged into something that was easy to market! I love Graff, I love Hip-Hop, Djing, Breaking, absolutely! I'm also into tons of other genres of music!

Watching this was a really informative and fun experience. Thank you Peter, for making and uploading this film!

Being a bomber from Newark, NJ. I hated the fact we were always in the shadow of NYC in the 80's and we finally started to slip out of it by the 1994 and some of us went world wide But we had crazy fucking styles that only New Jersey writers did and now they been bit all over the world but Newark Wild Style could never be replicated unless you from here. And that style is still special to me, like nobody can ever take that from us! ✌️ Zew1 FR/OUT/SGK/666 Newark, NJ

You cannot dis beat street as package product, one best elements of Beat Street is that it takes place during the winter, lep wearing his sheep skin, we would go bombing on Christmas because we had the yarn to ourselves, I had kid capri in my class in 1981,

RIP DOOLEY CT LEGEND

Paint Louis was banned? As far as I know, just b/c the festival didn't happen every year, the wall was still legal to paint anytime. I remember painting that wall right beneath Saber's massive older piece. It was under the "A" - but you could only see the top portion of a few of those older pieces. Everything on the ground level had been painted over at least a few thousand times. If I remember correctly, AWR (Saber, Revok, Ewok & I think Sever, maybe others too) came & did those huge pieces in '98, during the first "Paint Louis" - But I hit it in like 2011 or so, just driving through. Not during an event or anything. I missed the opportunity to paint it during a jam a few yrs back w/ LD & many other homies, due to serious health problems... but it's still getting painted! It's the biggest legal wall I've ever seen!! As far as I know, people paint it every day! Only about 5 hours away, in Louisville, KY, where I lived for a few years, they tried to make an area a "Legal Wall"... It didn't even last a year! I'm thinking this was in '07. All of the near-by businesses complained b/c it wasn't staying contained to that area... it spread out, as is always does... That city has been getting hit hard for years. For those who don't know... Some of the dopest writers in the US have come from the Ville. So many freight legends, as well as straight heavy hitters that paint it all!! It's nice to see there are so many heaven spots that are hit-up, many are nearly a decade old now & most were done by 2Buck (RIP)... When I first lived in that area, in '03, hardly any heavens were painted. Now it's a whole different story! Like St. Louis, when they said they didn't see much graffiti... HA!!! Now it's completely crushed!! The buff is pretty bad these days in both cities, especially on the highways. Shit doesn't run long, often not even a day! It hasn't stopped dedicated writers though, not anywhere! It's wild to see all the new cats, just crushin' it!! I'm seeing new names every day it seems... Makes me feel old!

정확한 자막! correct subtitles 👏🏾✨

True Kingz ever!!!! MUch Love all these Legands. This new Generation Dosent got shit on the True Kingz. ~Denver Colorado! SKOPER94 TN1 Free all my brothers in the Jam!!!!!

GRAFFITTI STATYED IN PHILLY (1967) (CORNBREAD) it came out of the prior motorcycle gangs dat used paint to mark they territory for gang purposes.. Ny is the biggest MEDIA CAPITAL so they get all the attention.. but Graffitti STARTED IN PHILADELPHIA , PA..... also, the BEST "TAGGING HANDS" are in Philly....... Home of the "WICKED" style, And "TOP TO BOTTOMS".....FACTS

Taki 183..did not start Modern Graff

Do they even know what means what

So Cool, buy a tshirt

14.00 whats that song

Bambaataa was the first to sample little boys bootys

Do your reaserch of graffiti.

Who told that lie to Mark Bodé that his father influenced NYC subway writing, graffiti? No connection between graffiti and Hip Hop. At least for graffiti, it had existed on it's own starting in the late 1960s and kids of that time listening to The Rolling Stones, Sly & The Family Stone and so on and whatever artists of that time. Graffiti is NOT Hip Hop.

Yall never did Queens,

Look it ESPO. KING ing N. Y. C.

UK writers in the know, who's that like, on about seen like, painting at night like? Kelzo? Carl 123 Fista? Sounds like the man mist 1 like but it's not

1800 BUBBLE

I khow the histoy better.

This documentary has some serious errors. Raven, at 32:24 into the video, states that a white academic dude invented the term hip hop and the concept of hip hop (Steven Hager in his book “Hip Hop”. And Raven is in the University of Hip Hop? Where this dude come from? We all know Keith Cowboy created that term, and the culture was being formed in the Bronx. To say some white reporter and author created hip hop culture is beyond fucking stupid.

WHEN I SEE THIS THING ...I UNDERSTAND IM BEING USED , SO THEY COULD REWRITE HISTORY ! THE END ...NEXT !!! - TRACY 168 ' WILD STYLE ' !

Hip hop is not part of graffiti and break dance they say it is but is not

At 7:07 into the documentary, Fargo states that “it is bullshit that hip hop spawned graffiti, that it was around long before hip hop”. No shit Sherlock. No one claims that hip hop created graffiti. Some people are constantly closed/minded as they recreate history. Graffiti is the first element of hip hop, but it doesn’t mean it wasn’t created by hip hop. It’s like saying deejaying was created by hip hop, it’s ludicrous. But it is a part of hip hop. Fargo is an old schooler for sure, but his statement was ignorant and erroneous.

Fargo also states that hip hop did not create breakdancing? WTF??? Either Fargo was affected by the 1980’s crack epidemic or he huffed to much paint that gave him mental retardation. Breakdancers are called B-Boys, which is an abbreviated form of Break Boys. It is a direct correlation to the early hip hop deejays creating ‘scratching’, i.e. break beats on Records, otherwise known as the ‘get down’. Fargo needs to quit huffing, and start reading history books.
