I’m a product of the world — but more than any other place, L.A. shaped who I am. Being a youth in the ’80s in this city opened my mind. Every ride I would take on the RTD bus system gave me a chance to look at the walls of Los Angeles that were covered in graf. In the ’90s, a tagging crew took over the city and you can see it for yourself in the short doc, Los Angeles Tag Bangers in the ’90s.
