Saber! We met at FIDM when you did some wild style on canvas. Helped you with your paints. You hooked me and my buddy up with some prints! Thank you for being such a great artist!
Saber was by far one of the most inspirational writers from when i was a youngman. Big ups to MSK, AWR and all the 7th Letter homies I met throughout the years at random.
The random it is, the random it is
Saber
Revok
Atlas
Norm

So stoked that after my shitty morning I open my CZcams App to find another PTA episode for me to watch later on! Very thankful that last weeks episode was not actually the last one.
Saber is Legend
Looked up to him 04 to 08 when graff was at an all time high during our time in high school
LA river piece is legendary
Bless you SABER
2tone is a Legend for this
Yes sir those years were crazy.
right now their is so much graffiti also in DT LA
I miss that era of graffiti. You just had to be there
do not stop this Pod.......me and my kids are avid listeners/watchers....... and fuckin SABER is a graff god.........great show
We all love graffiti man
I’m 21 years old & I get paid to get high on my CZcams channel , i love itt tbh. I’m tryna get out the hood, its wicked out here G
Haha
Haha flicked it haha😂💩
I know 2tone always says the pod is over, but these graf joints are so cool. I hope one day we can get REVOK on
Tone, please don't stop doing these! You really have something special here.
💯😤
A week after threatening to end the podcast, 2Tone comes through with the best guest and best episode to date.
still going
This podcast is the best out there.
Who’s your dealer?
Ehh
One time I seen SABER at vons in pasadena with his daughter so I couldn’t ask for him to sign my shirt! But next time for sure! Much Love Homie
Super hyped, one of the best guests. Thanks for this one 2Tone 🔥🔥🔥🔥
My kid goes to school with his 8 yr old, I was graffiti starstruck when I saw him at a school event. He seems chill af.
WHICH SCHOOL IS IT????
@@dysay wtf? Why? Weirdo. Mind your business budd. SMH
YESSSSS!!!!! WE'RE NOT DONE YET PTA CREW.
!!!
What no one realizes is that we were all just deep faked by Adam Sandler posing as the artist known as Sabre. "Turtley enough to be in the turtle club." "Master of Disguise"
Thank you for this 2tone. Please don’t stop this show ever
Listened to this at work today. Hands down best interview ever. Saber is a huge inspiration in many ways!
I reckon this show would be the type where you've either never even remotely heard of Alex and BXR, or you watch it hyper religiously cos Alex is the type of guy I think anyone cool would want as a friend
2Tone is giving folks a place to process and that’s so compassionate.
Facts
Aside from infants he wants to murder to join the slave runner cult
thankyou for putting out another episode 💜
Thank you for not giving up on pta 🧡
Give saber his flowers while he can still smell em.
So happy ur still doing the pod:) thank you 2tone
These are so great!! Please please please keep the interviews coming with og legends!!! talk about what ever! It's beautiful to see just the people in their natural state! Thanks you
I could listen to Saber tell stories for fucking ages man. Dudes the definition of legend.
Thoroughly enjoyed this episode and the graffiti stories. Keep ‘em coming!!!
not even half way through and this is prolly one of the best PTA's I've seen. LOVE LOVE LOVE the explanation of graffiti and it's various purposes/contexts. Saber is a smart dude and your chemistry is obvious. I'd love to see him on again. Thanks for the science.
Let’s get “Retna” on here all spun out !
😵💫😵💫😵💫🤪🤪🤪🥳🥳🥳 RETNA PLEASE
I swear is it just me or does it seem like saber is definitely high on more then just weed
Dude this episode has been the best one yet. More saber stories 🙏🏾 🙏🏾 🙏🏾
omg the way SABER cracks up while telling the "shit" story!!! LMAO!!!
Was hyped that the show is still going and with one of the sickest guests.
Hope to see Chaka LOD and David Choe on here someday
Choe would be awesome. love that guy.
bro the sickes graffiti podcast , legendary hardcore dude much love from Mexico been following since 90s
Wow, I feel like I just took a journey through the underside in one short hour. This guy is larger than life !
Saber, hope your seizures become a lil more manageable and that your mum is in good care 💙
Now this is podcasting
This cast is my childhood…love it!
Love you 2Tone! Saber!
This episode alone is why you can't stop, won't stop!
Fire interview, keep them coming brotha.
The longest upload on CZcams I've ever listened to or watched without skipping has been a music album and an animal documentary. This evening I add this very interesting upload to my "undivided attention" list. Simple set up with a table, table props, nice little background with family pics, great production team behind the camera and interesting individuals. For real. I never stay tuned to most things on you tube unless it's about animals,music and big booty black women twerking compilations. Especially this long, cause of my limited data. Love the intro too. Funny and intriguing from start to finish.
Gonna need a Saber Part 2 for sure
for real.
Need revok next
No doubt
YES!
Agreed and retna
And Rime
And augor
Absolute banger episode the pod might be running out of time but the episodes keep getting better
duuuude you gotta bring Saber back on for a pt. 2!!
Get Vision and Tame and Wisk , and WTf is the deal with no body ever talking about Geso from 1988.
love this channel keep doing your thing bro great job :)
I grew up on Santa Fe and Mateo. I watched the Saber pieces all my life. He was my hero. This EMIK UFT. Peace to the legend. Mind, body and soul. The exchange.
Such a great episode!! Saber seems hella down to earth and is hella funny too! Haha sick stories!
I remember this foo was THE graffiti GOD growing up I remember my dad driving on the 5 fwy and looking out the window down to the LA river and seeing this absolute MASSIVE hit up “SABER” then seeing magazines showing just how big this thing was you can see this thing from satellite view lol a human body was the equivalent to a cm on a 12” ruler 💀
yeah saw it 1st in infamy haha
real Legend! Great interview, saber is easily one of those most prolific writers ever 🙏💯
Got my Saber Mtn can today, stoked...
Even though I'm a little late it's great to see Saber. I've been seeing Saber probably since he started. I've been going to Ventura since 86. I used to drive by his MSK Capitol at least twice a day for at least 2 years. I also have taken the train past his LA Wash top to bottom multiple times. It'd be great to have Mear,Toomer,Norm,Revok,Chaka,Claw and soo many more o.g's on this pod
Norm is resting in peace. Angels Will Rise
Best Intro ever lol. “Let’s put that dog in the trash” 😂
“805” Santa Barbara area! I remember HAZE he always used silver and blue. Great interview!
Remember Kick and Psalm from Oxnard? they were so dope
@@sovereigncosmicwildman that’s old school brah too! I believe I seen some of their artwork in hobo jungle in Ventura.
@@sovereigncosmicwildmanI got Kick posted in one of my music videos. Chill dude
He’s from the southern part of the 805 tho
@@user-nl6wo6od8i interesting did not know that. I wonder what happened to him.
What an awesome podcast! Super happy to hear you squashed your beef with JA. REALLLLLY curious to know who from NY helped you to fix the mega piece XD!
Please let us know, sounded like it's been long enough to spill the beans! Salute and mad respect!
My guess is MQ.
@@wolfpecker5710 my guess is that I think it was over someone going over a SANE piece in NYC and also a lot of them NYC cats don’t like “out-of-towners” bombing their city and having way better styles lol also L.A. cats were connected with DMS crew and that’s beef with all them XTC YKK KMS RIS cats etc…. My guess don’t quote me on that though 😅
@@YouCanChangeYourWorldToday everything you said is pretty much on point with the exception of feeling jealous of better styles.
Legendary piece I remember seeing that as a kid more than a couple times it was incredible !
All the best SABER, give the king his roses
This podcast is right in the center of my interest's Venn diagram
A part 2 would be Great 💯 much love & respect ❤️🙏🏆
This was top tier great laughs and amazing stories. I would love to pick this blokes brain. Mad respect y’all 🔥
That lil sigh after the intro bit😂
Best podcast, please don't end it!!! Chip Bailey hahahah
Could tune in every week to listen to Saber stories
48:35 “The best time to paint Venice was in the morning, I didn’t want to get killed by Shoreline Crips, I didn’t want to get pressed by Venice 13, the best time to paint Venice is in the morning.”
I remember painting venice at like 3am in 1997-1999 climbing poles and shit catching tags and ghetto bird flying over shining light on us. Never had run ins with the sho lines at that time but they were always out during the day and santa monica boyz always beefing with eachother.
Holy shit saber laughs like he definitely lost a lot of brain cells during his time painting
Dude… this was one of the greatest pods ever
Love to hear the graff stories, Would be dope to see a mister cartoon interview!! :D
One of the most intriguing podcasts I've ever seen. Please more writers 🔥
The first 8 minutes and I'm hooked 🤣
Dude, we need more SABER
BEST CZcams CHANNEL SINCE CZcams BEGAN 💯
Good episode guys
He came through! Already know this one for the books
JA In Drag At An Art Show Thats Wild Story We Need The Full Story
I was a writer thru the late 80's early 90s but went to the joint forever so i missed sabers era😢. Respects still, POIZEONE
You’re doing life bro? Damn
great interview
Much love
Great episode!
excellent episode !!!!!!!!!!!
We need MQ on this show
JA!!
@@villiantwo JA beefs it with all these west coast legends lol it won’t happen. Old school beef
@@YouCanChangeYourWorldToday if someone got the top guys from east and west for a convo would be epic. graff has always been very territorial. like hip hop. would be cool if we started breaking that barrier
@@villiantwo exactly! Now that these guys are almost 50 years old ! It would make sense to drop their petty immature teenager beef especially over silly graffiti! And show these younger generation of wannabe “Graffiti Writers” how to evolve as a man and as an artist ! besides Graffiti is just Graffiti at the end of the day ! Art is not a crime ! But it’s all the other B.S. that’s associated with graffiti that stops the hip-hop element from evolving like ego, drugs, violence, crime, robbing, etc. that has nothing to do with the ARTFORM of GRAFFITI & the true essence of Hip-Hop. Peace & Respect 🙏
@@YouCanChangeYourWorldToday well said. even up here in toronto its very territorial. I assume its crazy in places like NY or Cali. graff is slowly becoming mainstream but never wil be fully for obvious reasons. but makes no sense for top crews to be beefing, when if people stated working together there'd be no stopping the movement. and good for the culture as a unit. beef will always exist in graff, but showing some top guys resolve old
shit, and maybe drink some beers would be dope
So dope....my new favorite channel.....
Got to love Saber and his honesty full marks bruv
Best pod!! Saber is a goat
Wow u got Saber !!!!! Amazing episode 🎉
Bro, more writers. This was so awesome! ⚛
hell yeah!
Holy shit this interview was fucking EPIC!!! SABER is the fucking man!! i love hearing his stories!!
Wolfman 2tone really jazzes me up man
King Saber!
we should have this guy back dude
Never stop. PTA
mad society king
God damn that was a banger
This was such a crazy one! Loved this shit!
I bet it was revs that got him to go fix the LA river roller piece. It Just makes sense based off the “and you’re Gona do it my way” statement and knowing revs body of work etc
I hope there's a part 2 with special guest Revok.
👎
Id love 1.5 hours of revok talking. stories for days too.
I need another SABER episode
I can picture young saber all wired the fk up and going crazy, this shits great.
Great wisdom. ❤
greatest episode of all time
Awesome storys! Goodstuff SABER!
1:35:20 I was just thinking about the bathroom at the Venice Pavillion like a couple days ago. I remember walking in there by myself at like age 14... maybe even a year younger. The bathroom was dark with no lights working, and you only had the light from the outside leaking in. It was completely bombed with graffiti from ceiling to floor. It smelled like piss and shit. And you may or may not catch some transient in there tweaking, doing something sexual, or out to do harm to anyone who comes inside. I still somewhat have nightmares about that place.
MQ helped him fix the la river piece, id put money on it
My guess would be gkae but who knows
@@mattwilson7443 Gkae is from LA, they mentioned a NY writer helped him fix it. JA and MQ have had a long running beef which is why its my guess.
@@connorduncan4657 didn’t catch them saying it was an ny writer. Still weird thinking about MQ being specific about highlights and such
@@connorduncan4657 yeah MQ was my guess too!
