- Banksy's identity was always a mystery - that is, it was a mystery until today.

I am a writer for over 17 years from Miami I am in MSG 28 crew .. I met Banksy in Miami when he first came to paint wynwood for Basel ... the person I would first meet in this story starts with Ben Eine (an acquaintance of banksy) my first clue and an small entourage of people visiting .. so my crew was contracted to buff the walls for the artists coming to paint for basel in wynwood... we were painting his wall for him when they pulled up .. my crew mate told me that he was a "special person who he could not name but I figure it out" .. they got out of their suv and I shook hands with them and they thanked us for our work we chatted for a bit... what stood out is that when they introduced themselves Ben said "this is my special friend" and we all just smiled.. right there I felt like I was in the presence of a deity .... then when they left my friend said "he is him" .. "now you know"... I was quiet .. I just said thank you to him.... later that week I saw them walking around one night just in the sea of people in wynwood .. nobody knew he was hidden in plain sight .. he was just another face in the crowd (just like me).. but I knew... I just nodded and smiled as I walked by.. and that's what real graffiti writers will do. We are ghosts in the machine... I share my story maybe nobody reads this shit .. but I lived it and Im a real person .. but I will tell you this .. how banksy operates is not how the general public thinks... and still to this day .. I know what he looks like 100% ... but what makes you deserve to know. you aren't one of us... just an outsider looking in .. EDIT: he isnt in this video
Then you know Robin.
That video interview isn't even the real him. He is a legend in his own way
Banksy isn't a graffiti guy though. He's a stencil guy, a street artist if you will. He's no writer though
I agree. I sort of respect what he does, but he's not a writer. Its a whole different world out there as a writer hittin tags and throwups. Banksy couldn't do that shit and I couldn't do what he does. Banksy is street art. I am graffiti
Educate yourself about what graff is dude.
@SAMZIRRA says the guy reppin Banksy. Maybe take your own advice smart guy
He's a Artist and Sculptor Very intelligent Robin Gunningham and he is not Boring!) ❤
Banksy used to tag a lot before he became who we know today. He used to tag with a group, until he found that stencils were faster and easier when he once almost got caught. At that time as well, Bristol was going through some governance/political problems so he used his stencil political work to get the message across. And people around Bristol loved it and use his images during protest. Of course he created his political style that made him popular.
It's in the name hey? Robin... Robin Banks.... Banksy
Jo? No.
Gunningham sounds nothing like "banksy"
That's not Banksy lol... wtf -- He doesn't work alone. This is one of his partners.
Source?
Well... having been around Bristol for years and East London everyone knows Robin Gunningham is Banksy. So much supporting evidence it's undeniable, but never truly revealing his identity keeps the mystique going.
Not a secret on the graff scene, but who's gonna officially admit that they have 'vandalised' ( media term, I think 'improved' is more apt!) All these locations, buildings etc???? I wouldn't!!!
Well the guy that’s in the interview with his face covered that “supposedly banksy” has straight hair the guy in the photograph with the stencils and spray paint that also “supposed to be banksy” has curly hair, and both have different face features from what you could even see in the pictures, definitely NOT the same person.
the guy with his face covered in that old interview really looks like Robert Del Naja to me. The eyes at least.
Dude.. banksy is a created artist..
This is what people love.. drama.
Mystery .. they made this guy up to generate a shitload of money.. this is the whole shtick.. the whole image about this artist..
You know he’d be put to death in like multiple countries, don’t out the man for clout.
The newspaper The Daily Of Sunday wrote about it in 2008, it´s nothing new.
PUT TO DEATH? LMAO HOW
@@rabaldar9269 say he was convicted of terrorism in Jordan. The state is murking his ass.
Stencil art with political takes is boring and all his art works are commodified by the very people he seems to mock which he profits from, not to mention that much of his career is attributed to stealing blek le rats work. There are thousands of people who paint graffiti out of passion alone which outshine him@@owlpelletstew
Put to death.....
Really? For artwork??? And no I don't wanna hear about how he shouldn't have been there.......he's a graffiti artist. If you think you know......your 5 steps behind
I'm also very interested in Banksy.
He is also popular in Japan and becomes a hot topic.
I created a piece called "Frog Throwing a Bouquet" inspired by Banksy!
Y'all some damn snitches.
yep, they ratted him out 😂
Graffiti is an umbrella term for a collective style of urbanised fonts
What a Legend.
He’s wild haha
that interview isn't him, compared to all the other images of him, doesn't make sense
Your a work of art
You're
He's worth £50m now... so if it all ends tomorrow it's been very lucrative whilst the anonymity lasted.
I’m not going to tell you in fact that you’re right, but he is an interesting artist!
I liked the video you made but Banksy is 3D in the video safe from harm from massive attack you'll notice a slight indentation on the left side of Roberts head and in the banksy interview you'll notice the same indentation.
OMG LOL. "Robert Del Naja is known for a helluva lot more than just graf.
Old mate looks way older than 28 and if U look at the eyes in 2003 they do not match with photo of old mate 2004
Bank sy or bank psy as in psyop. Is a collective. Aimed and successful at creating art that makes money. Astronomical amounts of money. Job well done "Banksy" job well done
He is NO graffiti writer
Rip king ROBBO
That's definitly guy from Massive Attack with t shirt over his face
The video interview? Tone of voice is wrong for it to be Robert Del Naja
Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Yeah
Motha F|{ Banksy! Long Live King Robbo! 💯‼️🤘🫡
Please stop calling him a “graffiti artist”, he’s not a graffiti artist, he’s a street artist, there’s a difference.
That’s good detective work!
So educational
