“CHAKA” I Hope you doing good carnal probably You forgot about me but I can forget The famous CHAKA in the west back home I was with you in RID! Keep doing what you doing I just saw You video on you tube! God bless you carnal!!!!
I remember getting caught by SDPD for ditching school in the 90s...they brought us back to school without searching us and my homie caught a tag in the back of the cop car with a streaker. I was like fuck they gonna come get us now cuz we were up all over.
Hey Daniel, we were the ones that gave you that famous name CHAKA. I grew up in Aliso Village Projects by TMC area. Just want to let you know you are a bad ass! Remember FLEW from W247? I remember you riding your scateboard with your backpack..anyway nice seeing you again on this video.
Thats Daniel Ramos one of my child hood friend he got his name in the early-mid 80s from his peers at Utah str. elementary in Aliso Village Projects...We called him Chaka cause he had long hair and look like Chaka from the old T.V show land of the lost and he took that name to fame who woulda thought..
I remember Chaka. All the news stories. Growing up near Los Angeles I remember seeing his work in the streets when I went up there. Some of these people are super talented. It's great they are using their skills for something positive, instead of just messing up peoples property.
He inspired me as a kid to hit up every where I went from So East LA where I grew up to billboards overpasses freeways and whole city’s I miss the rush of it there’s no drug like it.
I have never known why graffiti is said to "deface" an object or building. Writers like chaka give emotionless things faces and personalities. long live graff
I was tripping out because being so young i wasn't born when he was active active, butt there a new hit up around tha corner from my house by the Compton Court House..DOPE SHIT
From Wisk's "W" throwups, to West Coasts Artists' "Wildstyle" pieces along the Venice Blvd corridor to the L.A. street gangs warring with Graff artists CHAKA was the name that always stood out... He truly bombed the city!!
1.Does the name belong to a legend? 2. If the answer to #1 is Yes change name 3. Can you prove via photo you wrote the name first ? If yes keep the name 4. Final rule CAN YOU BURN THEM? If not... This is the way i understand name acquiring I'm not an expert just thought I'd attempt to impart some knowledge. One
He was a tagger, that's all he did, I never saw any murals, I went to L.A high with some of the guys from TNT and 2nd2None, he was crazy, he tagged everywhere, i used to tag on the walls myself, but I hit up my neighborhood,

True
Yeah I remember chaka n his brother goofy david. We use to skate 2 gether

I was like 13 14 seeing chaka everywhere if your 34+ you remember this guy he's Los Angeles!!
hell yeah, I'm 37, from AZ, known Chaka from some vacations in SoCal.
I found his tag at big bear on the back of a sign view was incredible
OG back in the day. Inspiration that gave me a vision to tag all RTD buses back in the day SINCH for life.
Did you go to Hollywood High? Unless you’re a different “Sinch”, you and I hit a few places. “KNS”
I remember seeing Chaka everywhere I'm frm Pasadena & when i go on the 110 freeway I'd see it there to
He inspired me as a kid to hit up every where I went from So East LA where I grew up to billboards overpasses freeways and whole city’s I miss the rush of it there’s no drug like it.
you never see that in France! a graffiti artist rise to the rank of star
My man Chaka I still be seeing your tags all over LA
I used to see his tag all over the 110 freeway back in the early 90s.
Nobody got up like this dude. You couldn’t escape his name!
Chaka and Oiler were the gamechangers.
Write a book Chaka! We need more stories! Rock on!
Here from hoodvlog . Nice work
chaka was committed. he went writing all thru the night, til around 5am. that's how he was able to get up everywhere.
Dope took L.A. to a Vandal level back n the day..getting up! 🎨
I have never known why graffiti is said to "deface" an object or building.
Writers like chaka give emotionless things faces and personalities.
long live graff
Because not everyone thinks it looks cool maybe
Or maybe because it’s not your property to do what you choose to do to.
Big piece on the 110 freeway off Imperial. Used to see it everyday on the way to school. This was in the late 80's
He doing what he’s passionate about. That’s true success in life. Finding yo ur passion.
He's still fukin up L.A in 2019-2020 😎
Yooo rusto just hit me with the ad while watching that Chaka vid lol
Chaka once tagged one of the windows of a market my dad owned and when I saw it I was so hyped!!!
I was in high school...by those years..living in LA...and chaka was up on All the highways...rooftops..everywhere...
Daniel aka CHAKA has to be one of the finest graffiti taggers of an era
Chaka is the heart and soul of graffiti just awesome stuff
I remember seeing Chaka in the walls everywhere and wondering what it meant and if they were the same person.
I heard bout him back in the 97 he was being heard all the way to San Antonio TX
Yeah my boy is back! 2021!!!!
I was tripping out because being so young i wasn't born when he was active active, butt there a new hit up around tha corner from my house by the Compton Court House..DOPE SHIT
_You the man Chaka. I'm was an ol skool 90's tagger too_
I have no idea if this true, but one legend about Chaka is that he even tagged his name in a judge's chamber of a courtroom building.
I remember seeing his name everywhere. When did he ever sleep? Lol Glad he's doing something with his talent.
Roger Stories he slept at 6am. nigga was a dropout remember

one of my main influences when it comes to graff most def.
From Wisk's "W" throwups, to West Coasts Artists' "Wildstyle" pieces along the Venice Blvd corridor to the L.A. street gangs warring with Graff artists CHAKA was the name that always stood out... He truly bombed the city!!

Question... what happens if you tag a name that’s already tagged? I just found out I was tagging a name my whole life and it was already used .
1.Does the name belong to a legend?
2. If the answer to #1 is Yes change name
3. Can you prove via photo you wrote the name first ? If yes keep the name
4. Final rule CAN YOU BURN THEM?
If not...
This is the way i understand name acquiring I'm not an expert just thought I'd attempt to impart some knowledge.
