Over the weekend, London-based graffiti artist King Robbo passed away at the age of 45. In 2011, Robbo was put into an induced coma after an unexplained brain injury. He spent the next three years on life-support before his death.

Robbo 484 started writing in the late 70’s early 80’s, and started painting trains in 1984 going on to paint steel all over Europe as well as the New York Subway. His main cru’s WRH, PFB and WD carry wait across the world.

In 2009, before the accident that led to his injury, Robbo began a two-year feud with British street artist Banksy. The battle went back and forth for two years making headlines, prompting interviews, and was the subject of a documentary aired on national television.

Chester P of Task Force has made the track “The ballad of a legend” to raise money for King ROBBO’s family.
