Tag Bangers

A crew of 15–20 homies who mark their block with a signature tag, symbol, or code. Some move like full street crews, others “tag bang” for reputation, sometimes even claiming loose ties to bigger gangs like the Crips, Bloods, or Sureños.
Most keep it about wall work over heavy violence—but respect still counts. It takes guts to tag and defend your name, even when bigger sets press.
Tag bangers are like entry-level gang bangers—mostly paint over pistols, but don’t test ‘em. Some will still prove a point.

Combination of the words "tagger" and "gangbanger". A new subculture that has developed mainly in southern California. Not really considered writers, they tag, never piece, and almost never do throwups. Often they carry guns and bear more than slight resemblance to gangs. Not really considered to be true writers by writers, but are mostly considered a hinderance and a negative influence on a creative writing and piecing scene.
if you live in los angeles then most people in a crew are tagbangers. they tag their crew name and their writing name and slash out other crews and people and hit up people looking for them and fight with them or the crew depending on who slashed what or sometimes may even shoot the enemy crew even if they didnt slash them out but because their crew slashed out him or his crew.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
