First guy says he’s amateurish and then shows a dope ass masterful painting that even many trained painters could never conceive. Damn I love the humbleness of this dude. Huge talent and no ego, a beautiful rarity
I have visited SG back in 2010 and in 2016. Painted in Somerset Skate Park which is one of my favorite places to paint as it is right next to Orchard Road. I also visited Blackbook and have used Zenith Cans. It's wack that they don't produce it anymore. Enjoyed SG and I plan to come back!
So I once did a poll asking my frens if they would want their flats to have paintings (like the ones at Khatib) , and majority actually chose no, which made me shocked? Like why... Singapore hdb flats are like bunch of matchbox stacked tgt.. It's nice to have these paintings to give a touch of colour or accent to it.
you barely know where we came from and how we’ve developed. if you’ve nothing to contribute to the conversation, then nobody’s asking you to be an empty vessel.
I like how even singapore, the almost "perfect" country have these people who sees its flaws as well.. But at the same time, respectful of the laws and accepts it.
Some prefer paper, some prefer computer but some prefer a wall at the end of the day they are all Artists. So all i can do is respect and appreciate their work. Because i have no such talent.
Well. My lect was so against me sharing with the class about graffiti. Bitch. Street art is where I got inspired and learn to appreciate arts outside museums....
Well, in a general sense, what's poison to some is food to other, and food to some is poison to other. The government is there to promote the common good, a certain harmony, if they see graffiti as an obstruction to the general populace then they would listen to them. Imagine a random guy showing up to your house and spray paint your walls without your permission. Would you be pleased? So it all comes down to mutual respect. Art doesn't always have to be inhibited by anger and rage, we already have a truckload of that.
@@ronneilcabrera2301 some guy in fact tagged my house some days ago. its just a time stamp of someones existence. its not something people do just for fun. in most cases it comes from a deeply existential force. yes there are people (obviously about a bunch in each place of the world) who write their names to find purpose in live. what a surprise. a wizard doesn't become an astronaut just like that. its one of a few forms of art that require the will to do something that could have extreme consequences(physically, finically or both), which actually sets it even with doing sport. people who get caught should pay exactly the real damage + lawyer and not end up in prison surrounded by people that might introduce them to the real bad things. imo this is a put situation since the intellectual value of a tag/graffiti counters the material/optical devaluation of the wall/building its painted on.
@@MapleXD2000 the severity of legal repercussions they placed to those artist are undeniably unjustified. And I agree with you. But why break the law in the name of art? If the state had clearly announced their limitations why denounce it and break it still, then complained about it? I believe the law supersedes sentiments especially when it's trying to protect the interest of the general populace.
@@ronneilcabrera2301 i see your point. but if the law really tries to protect the interest of the general populace, why is public advertisement legal and graffiti not? public advertisement is just as inevitable and intrusive as graffiti. To me at least. It is brought into the public not autonomous like graffiti but by someone paying money. The result is the same. Maybe if all graffiti writers had the money and time to to get permission for every spot they paint, there wouldn't be illegal graffiti, just like there is no illegal advertisement.
People talk about how strict Singapore is with street art and graffiti, but in many American Cities if u paint illegally you can possibly get a felony meaning 1 year plus in jail.
in singapore its very hidden, but there is racial profiling, its widespread in work environment where they hire bilingual speaking. in the military its worse. there is a reason 3rd generation minorities are all leaving or have left the country
I went to sg recently and really loved this art work on the walls...it is so cool that this vid came up on who drew them, thanks for your great work !!
@@soapy2587 He was a popular icon for photography back then. Always got a smile on his face. A nice uncle. On that day I also took a photo of an old man doing net fishing on a sampang at Singapore river at boat quay. It was like the last sampang around. And he was wearing a traditional conical straw hat.
I first discovered amazing Street arts in Penang. The murals there have become a tourist attraction. Ironically I have not gone to check out the locals one yet. Will do so one day.
I hope you got the pic taken before they painted it off....same thing happening in Msia....not many are open to murals...but it's slowing changing ....
of course they sanction this guy to do these happy, tradition loving murals. he is not asking public questions. and with him they de facto have graffiti without having graffiti. u dig?
@@sidewalkslam Exactly. There r many different types of styles, but street art goes way back when street art was essentially tagging walls and wut not.
R.Y while not everyone is into subcultures and able to appreciate the alternative art form, i do agree on your “educate yourself first” comment because them normie just dont know when to stfu and learn some new stuff outside of their normie lives. Lol.
Bruh help i just drew on my bedroom walls and i can hear the mata outside my door, oh shit oh god. Guys what do I do should my mom is going to so mad please i dont want my e scooter to get confiscated
On the other hand on the topic of discrimination, many admire that Malays get to go to SCDF, SPF, or given vocations like store men, drivers in NS. Also Malays can study for free in tertiary institutions if I am not wrong.
@Didi Tribal Have you served NS? If not you will not understand such good 'discrimination' that the majority of the combat vocations personnel see. A store vocation gives the person a lot of free time. Some even get to stay out and go home daily. For driver, they got a license for free which is very relevant as a civilian. And everyone loves to get into SPF and SCDF. I am not sure about the free tertiary education thing. I just know that in the past it was free. It was quite a low profile thing and I dont know how it works.
@Didi Tribal I just checked, there is an awesome tertiary tuition fee subsidy programme for needy Malay family. Can cover 70 to 100 percent. Such a programme does not seem to be available for Chinese. So this is another good initiative for Malays
@Didi Tribal I check that for Malay, 1400 SGD per capital household income can get 100 percent subsidy. The Chinese has a bursary scheme but must be 690 SGD per capital household income and they get 4000 SGD as subsidy per year. So it is a good scheme to help Malays to move forward
@Didi Tribal The annual tertiary tuition fee in Singapore for NUS starts from 8200 to 9000 +++ SGD for most courses. This is after an MOE grant that most would receive. So a full subsidy is substantial as compared to a 4000 SGD bursary
You guys don't get it don't you, the fundamental base of Graffiti art and street art is rebel. Behind every artwork has a story ( depth ). It's subjective but art is never just about esthetic, it's the emotions and technical skills.
It is ok if the govt says ok. U cant just go around drawing on people’s properties. I guess theyve found the right balance . Approving art n putting them on proper places
I'm a Singaporean but I find it kinda racist they don't let us muslim join alot of stuff in the army but they make us serve and then they said racial harmony
Good thing that it has changed already. And that point on being a sniper isn't true. Ive worked with a malay encik who was a sniper back in early 2000s. Hes part of the SAF shooting team. Chill dude who has an aura of mystery. Those who've seen him will know who im talking about.
why is the comment section if this video is not prohibited like the one with Asian Rappers ? The higher brothers support police brutality and you call them rockers? this is stupid
I guess the long hair increased the chance. And if there are exposed tattoos, it will even be worst. Cannot blame the police to have some baseline profiling.
Honestly i dont get the malay profiling part it should be appearance profiling. Nobody in life will force u to get tattoos piercing or outragous outfits.
Scanned by the cops just because the guy is a Malay? Oh please! I am a Chinese. I have been scanned by the cops many times as well. That's not racial profiling. And cannot be sniper because he is a Malay Muslim? Well, there are quite a few Malay Muslim commandos, Malay airforce pilots, Naval divers and even a Malay Army general. I don't see they are racial profiling. Not everyone can be snipers. Gosh!
sksksk what would a chinese like you even know about racial discrimination faced by minorities in Singapore. Y'all are the reason why systematic racism against non-chinese Singaporeans exist.
@@Irkkan Enough with all these nonsense about no Malay pilots can?... 1st Malay Airforce pilot was in 1992, 27 years ago... 1st Malay F16 fighter pilot is Yusri Abu Bakar in 2001, 18 years ago.... Please google if you do not believe
Appəl that one transport pilot lah dei. The fighter pilot was in 2001 yusri abu bakar after that? Discrimination does not mean there’s never been any malay as fighter pilot. But they put one so ppl like you would say Ah there see got malay before wat hahhahaha even chinese army soldier said he was mistaken for being a malay and he was followed by a high rank cos he was in a place where malays 'weren’t supposed to be in that area'. I won’t say much anymore but if you really think there’s no discrimination in sg......
"I wanted to be a sniper but I couldn't because I'm malay and Muslim." You don't get to choose your vocation. You only get to request them. I'm not Malay and I've chosen to be a driver and they didn't even give me that. This guy is just insecure. Claiming that racism is "institutionalised", even though Singapore actually punishes racism with jail time, is ridiculous. Its funnier when you look over at the neighboring nation of Malaysia, home to the Malays, and they literally have a law that puts Malays first. Their politicians boast about "Malay Privilege" with the Bumiputra Law which guarantees priority for Malays in banks, housing, employment and education. Every single one of my relatives suffered under Malay law in Malaysia. So much so that they left to live in Singapore. In Malaysia, they were given no education, no loans, no jobs, etc. This guy should return to Malaysia if he wants to be treated like a king. If life is so bad here then go home.
People here talking about things they dont know. Smhh! How about just appreciate the art? Go get a life if all you see is only positive and negative. Goddammit.
@@yopin7026 of course they are different; Graffiti carries the illegal connotation which is applied to the malay male, while Murals carries the sanctioned by authorities connotation, and it's not racists at all, just yellow privilege.
Of course The Singaporean Chinese is label as a muralist as that's what he does. His art is not focused on the letter which is what graffiti is all about.
As a singaporean, I genuinely do not mind these art works on the streets as long as it is not rude or racist. Also don't draw on the mrt or buses.

Well thats sterotypes. We can be better. This is a society issue.
