This text presents a first-hand account of the birth of the New York subway graffiti movement during the 1970s, revealing what happened behind the scenes when writers put their lives on the line to grab a scrap of fame from a faceless urban landscape. Legends such as Taki 183, Bama 1 and Phase 2 give accounts of their everyday struggles.
