Tucson Paint

Lots and lots of rival gangs have been getting there ups on public surfaces. Taggers will mark any noticeable and hard to reach area just for the sake of being seen, gangs will do it clearly so they can claim there territory.

A lot of Taggers do have beef with gangs but for the most part they go there separate ways when it comes to who tags where. Sooner or later, most building service contractors will come across some sick paint at a customer’s site. I've heard a lot of these company's that erase tagging are spending a ridicules amount of money on trying to cover it up, I guess were doing our job.

New Name...

I found out someone else is writing Toner which is a totall boner kill cause i loved that name. I hear hes the type of tagger that will just shot me so I decided to change names, I ain't getting shot. I don't think a name is worth it but someday it might be, I guess ill never know.....

A Day In The Life Of A Tagger

In the last couple days I've seen a crazy amount of ups around town with guys that and new to the game. Buses are turning into a favorite spot for quick ups, The windows are covered and people on the bus don't even bother to say stop as my sand paper brushes the plastic window of the bus.

Buses are a place were a lot of beef goes down one guys sees an other hit up that is "biting" his shit he crosses the guy and from there on out its war. Beef could lead to 2 things someone getting killed or someone making a new name. In the tagging world you and someone else can't write the same name or you battle/or scrap, who ever wins gets the name and moves on. If you lose the battle and continue to write that name you will most likely get shot, stabbed, or beat down.

T-Town Tagging...

Tagging in Tucson is a huge deal when it comes to high school students along with many of the few adults that still tag today. Tagging originally started of with a guy that wrote "CORNBREAD" to get attention from a girl he liked with a few tags, soon turned into a full time mission, getting up so much that he gave himself a crown. "CORNBREAD" also had a partner in crime who wrote "KOOL EARL". "CORNBREAD" pretty much set off the tagging game to a fresh start influencing people all over the world with which taggers call "ups". Ups can be anything that you write but, there are certain names for different hit ups for a example "QUICK HIT UPS are something you can do in ten to fifteen seconds tops. As BOMBS can take up to ten minutes depending on what your write, PEACES are two to three hours of just beautiful art work , and BURNERS are the sickest peace you can do usually containing about three to four colors.
