After thinking a bit, he really should have called it Ultraviolet.

are they rushing the release of their company so TJ can gun for SOTY this year? that's the only way i can justify the graphic design choices being made here - hopefully they rework the logo/graphics/everything

[close]

No. In a recent interview he said he wanted his video to have been released back in June/July but Thrasher made him wait to put it out. He also said he doesn’t care about being SOTY and they should give it to someone who just did one trick that stands out over people who release multiple parts just to flood the footage…

if only there was a way to upload videos to a site that everyone can access on the internet at anytime

You openly voted for a gentrifying, bland, scam artist. You’re in no position to call anyone an idiot.

Looks like a vape company

Best comment, but SO many other great comments. Thanks for filling my workday with laughter.

I'm Tyshawn's fan but holy shit, that logo is beyond horrendous... what in the "design is my passion" is that?! I'm at a loss of words honestly. And the name... Jesus Christ.
Honestly this makes Nyjah's Disorder look good in comparison (let that sink in).

this logo looks like they went to snoop doggs instagram and DM'd the first person who commented "im a young aspiring graphic designer hit me up if you need an album cover or profile pic."

Short king summer, baby.

[sluggers]

Obviously an homage to the Odd Numbers song in Andy Howell’s part in Useless Wooden Toys.

[Pete]

I was expecting it to be pretty bad and generic but this is really some Tony hawks underground shit.

The snoop dog comment section quote is one of the funnier things I’ve read on here in a while.

The words literaly came out of his mouth. The interview is posted here somewhere.

Nakel can be the jester, except instead of funny and harmless he is not funny and violent

King Tubby is the shit, love me some dub. Dude basically created the foundation of edm with reggae in the 60s

[close]

Well umm, Lee Perry created dub. But yeah King Tubby and Scientist are incredible masters of the craft.

Lee Perry did not create dub, it was "created" when a sound system operator named Ruddy Redwood went to Treasure Isle to have some acetates cut for his sound and the engineer accidentally left the vocals off one. He played the vocal-less one at a dance later that night and the crowd went wild, after that he started asking for more acetates without out the vocals, thus the birth of the version.  You would also be remiss to not mention Prince(King)Jammy, Prine Philip Smart, Errol Thompson and Sylvan Morris as super skilled dub engineers.

Well he certainly did release the first dub album 'Blackboad Jugle Dub" with King Tubby and had been experimenting with it long before then. Lets argue about it. I do appreciate your knowledge.

looks like one of those skate 3 team logos you gotta pick in game

can't find it but I remember hearing tyshawn's intro to professional skating was playing the first EA skate game

I hope he progresses past the logo real quick. I want to like this but don’t care for the logo at all

Java Java Java Java enginered by Errol Thompson and Herman Chin Loy came out before Blackboard Jungle Dub and is generally credited as the first dub album.  Not trying to be a dick but if you are going to correct someone else in the first place you should have your facts straight, nothing personal.  I'm a huge Reggae nerd and an old one at that so there's that as well.

[baggy spandex]

OK it would be legitimately amazing to see Tyshawn get the Kehinde Wiley treatment

Love Dub. Thanks to older bandmates, I was introduced to it at a relatively young age. It's one of the most psychedelic genres out there. I really like the legends mentioned, but no one's mentioned my personal favorite, SCIENTIST. His "Rids the World of the Curse of the Vampires" is so good, not to mention several other albums. There's great UK Dub stuff too like Linton Kwesi Johnson, Mikey Dread, Mad Professor/Ranking Ann, and last but not least, Dennis "Blackbeard" Bovell; he gets extra points for producing the Saâda Bonaire stuff and Post-Punk classics like The Pop Group's "Y" and The Slits' "Cut". There's also the On-U Sound label, which went all sorts of different ways with Dub.

Thats highly debatable

Fuck yeah. His albums with this same artist's cover art are all so great. Nice one!

[hayduke lives]

love prince fari i and the arabs too. who are some other roots/dub greats? the discussion of the artists and history of this music is way more interesting than a boring zoomer board brand. tj rips, naks a kook and seems likely the edits will be sick skating, weak graphics and goofy supreme clothes.
