Just To Get A Rep – new film on graffiti artists

There’s a new low-budget documentary out called Just To Get Rep.  It tells the story of graffiti culture through the eyes of legendary artists from around the world.

What’s interesting about the film is that it takes a look at the  ”love-hate relationship with graffiti and Hip Hop” culture.  Now, this is something many of you may not have known because we all know graffiti is one of the essential elements of Hip Hop.

Some of the kings of 70′s urban art are interviewed and give a history of the movement.   Cornet and Blade recall tales of “bombing the No. 2 and No. 5 trains in New York and ditching school to watch their creations flow through the city.

The film’s directed by Peter Gerard and you can download it here.   No set price, they just ask for a small donation.
