It's been 30 years in the making and this weekend it’s finally here! Can't Be Stopped the documentary debuts tomorrow night!! This film chronicles the OG CBS Crew’s hip-hop and punk rock origins and rise to the top as graffiti kings recognized world-wide. But perhaps most importantly, for me at least, it’s about the idea of crew, our relationships to one another, brother to brother, sometimes friend to foe, our own unique family dynamics that led us here to a reckoning of our current place in time. We were the ones to bring focus to the idea of crew. We graffiti writers were raised predominantly by our single mothers in Los Angeles, fighting for survival amidst gang warfare, running from the cops, jumping over fences, breaking the laws. We defined the west coast’s most infamous vandals. I have been through fire and rain with my peers; we were only children then, we rose from the streets to become Artists and Vandals before we were men. It blows my mind to think I'm still carrying on just like it was 1986. Every painting that ever was, is, and will be created by my hands derive from the notion that we make this world what we want of it, with our thoughts and imagination, and no one can direct that talent better than oneself. I’m just as much of an anti-authoritarian radical progressive as I ever was, only now I'm vandalizing more than just the streets, but ideologies, putting my writing on the walls into action. Art Can’t Be Stopped! In loving memory and celebration of our fallen brothers OG #SK8ONE OG #ROBONE and all the brothers from this rich LA Graffiti Culture. #ThisisLA
