Ok, enough controversy for one week! Back to some good, old fashioned, hot skateboard moves!
The biggest and most pleasant surprise of the past week was J.B. Gillet coming through with a four-minute part every bit as good as you’d expect a J.B. Gillet part to be…like even ten years ago. If we were to base a consensus on his sparse appearances in the few final Cliché projects, this was completely unexpected. (Related: Our J.B. loosies remix from spring 2016.)
The most unpleasant surprise was some actual devil editing like fifteen seconds of “Devil’s Pie” into the start of this part, only to cut it off. I get that J.B. and French rap are synonymous in skateboarding, but that was stupid.

It is actually shocking that JB has put out solid parts in THREE different DECADES. Don’t know what they’re feeding him over there, but keep killing it. Jeez.
