The Forgotten City has a really good new montage up right now.

Static III New York premiere info. Projected date is the weekend of the 19th of October.

Were the Board Bangers not enough? Need more reasons to hate skateboarding? Here you go: “As rap icons Pharrell Williams and Lupe Fiasco present skateboarding as an integrated part of their personality and style, and with skateboarding itself already a pop cultural phenomenon, urban fans are now incorporating the fashion and lifestyle of skateboarding, experimenting with both skateboarding as a look and active sport.” Totally dude. And who in their right mind refers to Lupelle Phiasco as an “icon”? Maybe if O’Shea Jackson were still in top form we wouldn’t have all these assholes running around in lime green Bape hoodies rapping about skateboarding.

Here’s some more idiots talking about nonsense.

The Tompkins Box + Sam = “The Box Was Hot With Rick and Meza” (?) AKA a new totally awesome, artsy, and slow TF clip.

And remember, whenever you fight at the TF, you’re only upholding tradition.

Just in time for October, we got a September montage together. Features Matt Mooney, Jake Johnson, German Nieves, Leo Gutman, Shuan Webber, Dharam Khalsa, Ben Nazario, Watermelon Alex, Ty Lyons, Miles Marquez, Billy Rohan, Lurker Lou, and Ted Barrow. Thanks to Brengar and Yago for contributing footage. I also opted for allowing advertising space in the begining of clips from now on, so you may notice a corporate logo or two at the beginnings and ends of videos now.

Billy’s Greatest Hits Part 3 coming soon.

I Hate Skateboarding (and Rap Music)

September 17th, 2007 | 10:18 pm | Daily News | 11 Comments

sep172007.jpg

Top five reasons why I hate skateboarding (and the rap music that adapts it as subject matter)…

1. The Board Bangers – “Cause the Beat’s Hot”

2. The Board Bangers – “Lose It”

3. The Board Bangers – Interview

4. The Board Bangers – “Skateboard Thug” (seriously, you’ve got to be fucking kidding me)

5. The Board Bangers – “Skate Like That”

I wish Old Jeezy would cover this issue, but I have no doubt that this stretches past the furthest limits of jungle gym homo-ism. (And personally, I’d rather sit through an hour of the O’Reily factor than watch more than 30 seconds of those videos ever again so you have been forewarned). These assholes (and pretty much everyone, especially hoes like Kanye West and 50 Cent) need to take some lessons from these guys.

Old Jeezy Interview @ Daily Pill

The Hipster Olympics: I’ve made a concious effort to remove the (other) h-word from my vocabulary because it has completely lost meaning over the years and covers too-wide of a range of specimens, but this is without a doubt one of the funniest You Tube videos ever.
