@@livereaction943they are throwing him up in memorial I thought I was losing my mind like why would he hit the same spot 7 times with different styles it’s pretty cool never seen it like this he must of been well respected
Shoot I didn’t know GRIDE had passed either…there’s so many GRIDE up north, so crazy, heavy in Seattle right now. And Tacoma too. I’m from the bay but was just on a trip to WA. So good
I never cared about graffiti until one day iI realized "Man, I keep seeing this G-Ride work everywhere, this dude is crazy". Thanks for opening my eyes to the art. RIP
I love how I recognize those Spots! It's been about 15 years since I've been active but every time I drive back thru the town all the way down I5 now the writers in this Doc definitely stand out. Great work!
It’s so crazy actually seeing how all this is done. I’ve only lived in Seattle for a few years and always saw these tags. It’s cool to see a face and voice to match with them.
Rip Grider! Wesh is a top notch dude, all the dudes of MSP are legendary, humble, and this doc is so well done. A real look into what art and graffiti in the northwest is! Well done!!
When my family drives to Seattle I really enjoy looking at the way the freeway graffiti runs with the car. The letters change with the speed and everything. Fun stuff!
watched this last night, was surreal seeing them tag that billboard i drive by everyday. turned on the radio this morning, hear one of them got arrested for it 😅😅😅
Years ago I asked how a writer had passed away on the internet and was schooled by a few guys to never ask that information unless you knew the individual personally, solely out of respect. Now I pass that on to you.
went to seattle few years ago, MSP and Kodak were crazy up. The amount of ups Keans and Gride had in Seattle and a little outside Seattle was mesmerizing.
I do Grafitti in Philly. Someone posted the link to this documentary on Reddit and that’s super cool gride got all this footage before he passed. Also pretty awesome all the people who wrote his name on the highway. Sorry for your loss, he def won’t ever be forgotten! Legend status !
@@AndyBoy616 thank you for your kind words. It's awesome how his crew & brothers are keeping his name up! Makes me feel better everyone showing all this love! G-RIDE was a legend!!! But to me he was my king my son my baby! 😢 once again Thanks for your words. ❤❤
Great documentary. Really eye opening to see behind the graffiti art I’ve seen my whole life. Artists living truly free. That’s a great inspiration. Wish graffiti artists did more to ensure their community avoids spraying over random individuals private property, beautiful architecture, and murals though. Keep it on corporate and city-owned infrastructure. It’s more powerful that way imo.
I remember seeing my first Gride piece, it was on a dumpster on 64th and Yakima Ave in Tacoma back in 2002. It was one of the first pieces that made me wonder what this graff game was. RIP Gride keep Making Shit Pretty all through eternity. ❤🧢
I love seeing graffiti, especially in my home city. I always look at the city and think, what would it look like without graffiti? It would look lifeless and empty. Graffiti are the tattoos of the city, each tag and mural has its own story and I think that is pretty cool.
Cool to see GRide. Never knew him but everyone i follow has so much love for him that it makes me sad knowing i never will meet the guy. RIP to him, hope his friends and family are doing well
7:27 another factor why freeway spots are so prevalent & run in Seattle is they fall under the Department of Transportation jurisdiction, so they have be the one's to buff it not Seattle city government. At least that's my understanding
I watched this video a week ago. Driving south down I-5 thru Tacoma and Kent this dude got his name on everything all the way down to exit 109 in Oly RIP GRIDE 🕊️
Great documentary! That blockbuster is a couple blocks from me. I don't write, but been keeping track of Seattle pieces for the 2 decades I've lived here. This behind the scenes footage adds valuable context as someone who just observes from the outside.
I Write Because of ‘MSP’. Y’all were my one true inspiration that got me into writing. Just Moved back to Florida.. and I’m killing it out here, there’s not much of a scene - so someone’s gotta do it. I aspire to get my name up half as many times as y’all from MSP. RIP GRide
@@Smokesubud, your telling me the city looks better with ugly big corporate logos? Look at the bigger picture, this makes an urban city feel less like a hell scape.
Need you to make a part two that features the Dog Town collection in north Seattle. They have the worlds largest collection of graffiti art and restore the historical legacies of a ton of graff artists
Man.... I still can't believe he's gone. I've been following his work around Washington state since like 2014, damn it's really been 10 years?! My God. Hey, the whole time yo, this dude is up from Seattle Tacoma EVERYWHERE in between CLEAR UP TO ASHFORD right before the mtn!!!! I did my first piece In 2016 but I started tagin more like 2014 and Gride was the first name I seen twice lol he was the first one I seen 1000 times too haha but it brings a tear to my eye for real. He's been this like goal of mine to meet him one day and tell him how much he inspired me for real and now I can't. Guess there is only one way to pay my respects now... RIP GRIDER.... oh I got one more thing.... where the fuck is KEANS in this video?! Cuz yo, that dude is fucking psychotic !!! Keans, if you see this, hmu!!!
@@JasonScroggins-c4i then go paint more Lol soon you will run into many people as long as you are really out there puttin in work. its just another writer bro…
Putting Rio in this went unnecessarily hard great Doc bro I enjoyed the hell out of it smokin and sippin coffee glad they do it right in rain city Big ups -HELTK
Seeing MSP out here hard AF made me wanna go back out and write again. I'm an old head now and work for a city entity. Keeping it light out there these days. STAY POPPIN.
I remember gride hit the m's rideshare lot with big ass "g" 's before all the ride on the banners. 😅😅😅 That cat was up everywhere from here and as far south redding ca rest area.
yo weres scoty p at? Now now that dude is all over the nw and beyond. suprised i didnt see him on here. awesome to see this though, lived here all my life so seen all of these.
Saw a WESH tag on a freight down by Barstow. I'm living near Sac, previously lived in the Bay and Oregon, saw this Doc like 6months ago SO SICK to see a fuckin WESH piece heading to Vegas, the place of everlasting life for artists. Revisiting this Doc from my hotel room, since I remembered it heavily featured WESH, Ive been tripping for hours bro. Legend for real The American Bansky🫡
@@joelodyssey4475 I've had a group together trying to clean it up over the summer, we're all awful writers but at least we can cut the damn bushes back and keep it tidy out there. a huge piece got put up on the tall wall and covered up every piece, all the way back from 2020 :( shit hurts to see.
rest in piece met GRIDE and SCAPE at a the same show in Oakland they both were super genuine nice people
I just saw a newgride tag in my city... But that's sad rip 🙏

Finally someone did a doc on Seattle ‼️
Yes!
Dope being out here from LA and seeing all the action out here 👌
I love how I recognize those Spots! It's been about 15 years since I've been active but every time I drive back thru the town all the way down I5 now the writers in this Doc definitely stand out. Great work!
I keep this video for motivation to get out and paint. Clear footage, wise words, and good music. Love from Tacoma
Nobody in Seattle-Tacoma can say they've never seen an MSP tag. RIP GRIDE
I see msp, gride, xcit n more
I’ve seen msp in HAWAII. You can’t really be saying they arent in the Seattle-Tacoma area
I see msp every day
I even saw a Scotty p straight letter in tennesee
@@theo-hansonwhich part?
I'm from WA state I see Scotty P everywhere he gets up
I love seeing his mark... Seen it everywhere from Sea Town to Enumscratch
It’s so crazy actually seeing how all this is done. I’ve only lived in Seattle for a few years and always saw these tags. It’s cool to see a face and voice to match with them.
Some solid individuals right there. Hope WESH still clean and doing his thing and may his boy GRIDE rest easy.
Much Love from Cali 🫡
Grew up seeing the wesh and gride tags everywhere, rip to a legend.
How did he pass away?

That stretch of I5 through Tacoma is completely crushed with gride tags. Badass memorial, never seen anything like it. Anyone know how he died?
Duker 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I was just about to comment this ! and there’s all type of hit ups of GRIDE all over the city literally man rest in peace to that man
Years ago I asked how a writer had passed away on the internet and was schooled by a few guys to never ask that information unless you knew the individual personally, solely out of respect. Now I pass that on to you.
hit by car while graffitiing on the side of I5

The love that is showing for GRIDE up and down I5 is absolutely incredible! Condolences to his Family and Friends! RIP GRIDE
can't explain how or why but could always tell Wesh was a cool ass dude. felt like i was catching up with one of the homies. GRIDE FOREVER

I just saw Wesh shots in near my wife's job in West Oakland/ Emeryville 😮
Rest easy G! Wesh killing it! Much love to MSP!
Damn , dude the dude was a legend. The Jack In The Box downtown of Tacoma is my fav.
really cool to see some of the people behind the names i see on my commute to work
