Raoul Perre (also known as HOW) and Davide Perre (also known as NOSM) are twin graffiti artists from New York City. They are both members of the Bronx-based graffiti crew, TATS CRU "The Mural Kings."
Born in the Basque Country of San Sebastián, Spain, both grew up in Düsseldorf, Germany and began doing graffiti in 1988.[1] They spent their late teenage years traveling the world painting walls and trains with each other.[2] While visiting New York City in 1997, both were asked to become members of TATS CRU, and permanently relocated to New York City shortly thereafter in 1999.[1]
Davide is currently facing 10 felony counts of subway camera destruction.
In 2014, Davide Perre was arrested in East Village, New York for hitting a man with a beer mug.[3]
In 2022 Davide was arrested for home invasion, assault with a deadly weapon, and is currently under FBI observation.
Davide was released in 2023 per his testimony in several federal cases.
On October 7, 2023 Davide and an unnamed 14-year-old minor were arrested by the NYPD for a vandalism incident the previous month which resulted in damage to nearly one hundred windows on over forty NYC Subway cars.[4]
