hot take but the kid is a bit of a dunce, expecting to get his footage from the guy/company that put him on, filmed him, supported him in some way via taking him to spots and feeding him. After burning the guy/company by saying he no longer wants to be in his video. Guess everything was cool until Gifted Hater started talking shit, now junior doesn't want to play for the losing team. Mikey is probably the Kook of the Year, although he really wasn't exploiting this kid. Drove him around and filmed him and gave him some shine in the video. Pretty standard stuff for a flow kid to do. The kid is good but he's not blowing minds, pretty basic fs rail chomping by the looks of it.

Now that I think about it, it's pretty smart burning Mikey and IC with this shit, using the negative hype around him/ the brand to boost his own name. Becoming like a martyr for the cause. I'd be surprised if that was his angle all along.

Really, it just pretty wack to burn the dude that was putting you on, even if that guy is Mikey Alfred.

One of the kids jumping ship said they were being lied to about the footage and what was being used. The dude grinded like a 20-stair and it was put in the trailer.

Also Mikey mentioned having to also pay the filmer in addition to the $700k for hostage footage screenhots... but now the filmer is leaving?

The kids were probably eager to get started with a company that was at one point affiliated with reputable pros of today.
Like it or not IC did have some accolades before falling off

THe grom said I appreciate everything but it's time tog o, and Mikey responded sounds good bro. Mikey only retorted with the $700k ransom after the kid about the footage. $700k isn't a "sounds good bro" response. It's reasonable for him to ask for some cash to cover the time/effort but if he'd made a realistic figure he could've at least got some cash from a shitty situation.

The clickbait "we robbed someone" video has some susitivity and it seems probable that they didn't know how they'd be portrayed until seeing the final product

Obviously there are two sides to the story so we can't fully know... 
But if dishonesty, cringe marketing tactics, and using the brand social media to be defensive toward overwhelming valid constructive criticism.. aren't enough reasons to leave a brand in your opinion, I'm really curious to know what you would consider appropriate grounds to leave a brand?

Is it normal to ask $33 to get in the door at a premiere? Most premieres I have been to have been free. (Barring small premieres where the door pays for a case of beer or something.)
I know dude isn't having an open bar/buffet. That means $33 plus food/beverage. But hey...magic...i guess...

It's not that serious -

Is that a thumbs up or a middle finger?

Davonte and Sunny co-signed on Logan’s post.

Imagine Mikey just deleting Godspeed off the IC YouTube channel any moment now…

That's what I was wondering along with "was this drawn by a child?"

Wait is this Mikey's singing?

I think Mikey has been lacing his own music into his edits for a little while now

Hate to say it but that’s a Jay Worthy track, of one few misfires in an otherwise mostly killer catalogue.  Makes perfect sense Mikey would be into it.

Thanks for the clarification. It's a pretty iffy track but it takes on a whole new dimension when Mikey keeps signing it into the camera

He’s deserves that 700k he took them to spots AND bought them food.

i know we're all joking about this, but this is actual grooming behavior and really suspect.
[close]

What exactly do you suspect Alfredo Mike to be up to?
[close]


It IS possible to want to help and mentor other young men without it being grooming. The term, "grooming," has HEAVY sexual connotations attached to it and even though Mikey is Mikey, it's supremely fucked up to label someone as a groomer when you have absolutely no basis to do so. Maybe he was, "grooming," them to be a successful skateboarder.

Did Rick and Mike groom kids who they kept in flow purgatory? Has every other adult male who ran a board company and took kids on trips a predator?

Don't say that shit about someone.

Word the GQP loves that term and throws it around at educators like it's nothing. The term is getting mainstreamed the same way cuckold was.

i wonder if actual cuckolds are pissed the same way skaters were when thrasher shirts were everywhere

imagine a group of poser-cuckolds hanging out bragging about their wives getting smashed but they don't have the clips to back it up.

Just went through the whole thread. It goes from Mikey getting called out by Tyshawn for dressing wacky to the utter and complete collapse of Illegal Civilization.

Hollywood and the whole Los Angeles area in general just gives me the creeps. I just finished reading Less Than Zero by Bret Easton Ellis and I am thoroughly scared of the geography of the city. I hope Mikey Alfred finds himself soon and doesn't
end up getting lost up in the hills at parties on Mulholland Drive. The canyons will get you man, avoid them.

Mikey really has the vibe of one of those kids on that MTV Sweet Sixteen show... like everything he does needs to be a production about him and also he wants several outfit changes and a musical number

Does you think we’ll be witnessing a live streamed social media meltdown, a’la the Doubles Ltd. debacle?
I admit I’m a horrible person for taking delight in the misfortunes of others, but I’m still gon’ pop some corn, cross my fingers & hope for a flaming fiasco.
Looking forward to his rebranded persona as a conservative pundit/impresario named Alf Michaels.

I wanna play you in a game of SKATE for the right to continue talking shit on me.  You think you got me?

There's a point where he's talking to some random person on the street even... I skimmed through and it gets a bit more audible but god damn I gave up. Someone in the TJ SOTY thread had the audacity to say this is a really good interview...
