Question

What is the difference between tagging and graffiti?

Answer 1

I would say that tagging is more like marking your territory/seeing where you can get your name (tag); graffitti is an artistic expression using specific techniques, much like other art :)

Answer 2

graffiti is the fat letters and have sumthin like pictures in them and tagging is one word like lines that form letter with no spacing...you wud have to c it 4 a betta idea

Answer 3

Legally nothing.  On the street, graffiti can mean anything, from art to simple words, but tagging almost always means just written words.  However, sometimes people consider artistic words as tagging.

Answer 4

Even though I hate both..tagging is more gang related..and graffiti is more artistic...some of the are pretty cool....just wish there was some place for them to do it legally and safely.....and this from and old f**t.
