The roots of Scottish graff





For me the real roots of Scottish graff are within flicks like this. Breakin was a massive phenonamumble back in the early mid eighties and this is where our graff scene was born. Yeah there were people writing their name before that but i dont buy into the fact that that is graff as we know it. People make a decision to pursue the graff line rather than the "Boab was here" thing and this is the point in time that those decisions were made. As well as being a breaker lots of guys tried their hand at graff and this is where the first real explosion came from. These flix are from Glasgow, The Plaza i think, and were submitted by the Monstercolors crew. If you look hard at these flix you may see a familiar face.

Its all about burnin'
