Classic LA Stickers

A grip of classic LA stickers riding high for years.

Slaps from Back UAO RK, Blind, Skarekrow, Paz, Zeal, Rums, Tzek, Bankrupt Slut, Spattah, and more.

UAO RK

Back bombs a giant UAO and RK letters inside a construction zone in the Valley.

Go With What You Love

Blind and Back from the UAO crew get up literally all over Los Angeles.

But the tags left on the streets haven't given many insights into the artists themeselves.  But this UAO sticker clearly shows some of the things they dig.  Like the Indianapolis Colts, the Angels, and that cool little floating wizard dude from He-Man--what's his name?

Tag It Up!

Graffiti tags in downtown Los Angeles from Fishe KOG, Fiver, Back UAO RK, Derse and ? OTR.

Back x Serch

A couple of big names who get up all over Los Angeles.  Blind UAO and Serch RTH team up on this hand made sticker stuck up on 3rd street.

Shut Up and Kiss My Muscles

Funny sticker saying 'Shut Up and Kiss My Muscles'.

Stuck up on Melrose with Blind/Back UAO 419, Soze & Irok Rotting Fresh, 1810 Mob, I4got, Rail and more.

Get Up, Stay Up!

Totally stickered out sign in Hollywood.

Massive slaps from B5, AWK, Yale, Roho, Boast, Samdzl, Roar CBS, Aigo 326, Arson, Probes, Dino, Had, Caps, FRK, Back RK UAO, Gamel, Newt and many more.

2012 Best Sticker Artist of the Year - Kings of Los Angeles~

For 2012's Best Sticker Artist of the Year, M&F is taking it old school back to the roots of graffiti.  Back in the pre-internet days, the only way to get your name known all over the city was to get up all over the city.  Those who got up city wide would be crowned Kings of Los Angeles.  Well, there are still some Kings of Los Angeles, and the Best Sticker Artist of the Year goes to 3 such Kings, Blind One & Back One UAO RK and Arson.  

Even though this award is for Sticker Artist of the Year, these are all graffiti writers who use stickers to slap tag the city.  All 3 of these artists also tag ferociously and Arson paints graffiti a lot as well, but stickers are their main medium used in smashing every corner in LA.  These artists' passion, determination, and reach can not be questioned.  Every time M&F ventured to a new area, we were continually amazed at how we would always find evidence that these artists had already rolled through.  These guys get up and hold down spots.  From Hollywood to Downtown.  From Long Beach to Chatsworth.  From Venice to Pasadena.  Walk down your block, its there.  These guys get up all over.  Literally.  Blind One, Back One, and Arson are M&F's Sticker Artists of the Year 2012 and modern Kings of Los Angeles.  Stay up!~

Special shout out to many more Sticker Artists who did some amazing things on the streets of Los Angeles this year.  Honorable mention to HNTR, Asmar, Plavex, Rotting Fresh Crew, 455er, PCH Crew, Join the Surveillance, Branded RTH, Bankrupt Slut, Love Krew, BNW, 125er, REM Crew, 2much, Batle, Gone, Half, and Plzr.

Pud McQueen

We once knew a dude named Pud back in high school.  He got the name when his brother's used to tease him with the word, and then it stuck, and he became Pud.  Even after graduating college the dude still goes by Pud.

Apparently, there is more than one Pud in the world.  New but water damaged sticker from Pud Mcqueen on Melrose.

On a HUGE sticker combo sign with slaps from Begr, Rich, TSF, Plzr, DB, Orie, Haeler, Fonze, Poe, CBS, Bankrupt Slut, Jaber, Blind, Back, UAO, Red, and many more.

First Responders

Melrose recently underwent a big buff, and spots that were once loaded with stickers, like the back of this stop sign, got fully buffed.

Well, the blank buff didn't last long, and it seems fitting the first two artists to get up here are Back UAO an Bankrupt Slut--two of the most prolific sticker artists in LA.

To Live, Die and Go All-City in LA

Blind and Back UAO RK get up everywhere in Los Angeles.  Seriously, take a walk around your block--wherever you live in LA, and you will probably see a sticker or a tag from these uber-prolific graffiti writers.

Blinder and Back One have definitely gone All City, and this sticker gives a shout out to LA.  Its a good motto--To live, die, and get up everywhere in LA~

This sticker was spotted deep in Porn Valley, past the 118.

This might be an old slap tag because the red is completely faded off the postal sticker and the crews that Blinder reps are ILG and UOR, which he doesn't put up as much anymore.

Up Everywhere, Everywhere

Kings of the city right now~

LA All Day!

Stuck Up

Up All Over

Committed as One, Son!
