The site goes pretty in depth on NYC graffiti.

 

Yeah, technically it started in Philly a few years before in the late 60's, but with all due respect to Philly, NY was the one that blew it up, came with all the styles and the train-bombing culture and the whole 9 yards.

 

Cholo graffiti art was going on in East Los Angeles since the 1930's. Two different styles, yeah. But if you look at writers today from L.A., a lot of their style is influenced from not only from NY wildstyle but from Cholo graffiti art and L.A. gang graffiti (which itself is inherited from the original Cholo art).

 

Also, why is this in Channel Zero?
