The Pharcyde - ‘Drop’.
The Pharcyde + Spike Jonze + Beastie Boys cameo = mint.
Also contains the best 8 words in a row in hiphop…
‘Cos I been up in my lab assem-ba-lin…’
Tremendo.

Epicly Later’d - ‘Andrew Reynolds - The Madness’.
Without sounding too wanky, this is so motivational for me.
I work with a guy who’s life is dominated and, at times, crippled by OCD and I have used Andrew Reynolds as an example for him on a few occasions. The impact it has had has been pretty incredible.
I showed him a bunch of Reynolds video parts that he thought were ‘really really good’ (“I like it when he jumps down the stairs on his skateboard and lands on it and keeps going”) and then showed him this one, in which he explains his OCD and talks about his acceptance of it being a part of him and actually helping him along the way.
It helped, so I talked about it to his psychologist and now he sometimes ‘prescribes’ it for young dudes in the same sort of situation.
It’s only skateboarding.
Gorillaz - ‘Plastic Beach’ trailer.
Quite excited about this coming out, looks like it’s going to be grand.
Apparently it has Snoop, Kano, Bashy, Bobby Womack, Mos Def, Gruff Rhys from Super Furry Animals. De La Soul, Mark E Smith, Lou Reed, Mick Jones and Paul Simonon on it.
Flipping heck.
Crailtap Girl park feature.
I wish I could skate more than I wish I could BMX.
Stuff like this is why.
Soul II Soul - ‘Keep On Movin”.
And the 6 month rule lies bleeding on the floor choking on it’s own ribs, this track having beaten it to within an inch of it’s life.
What a smasher.
New Cardiel video.
Longtime followers will be aware of my obsession with John Cardiel and his story, so to see new footage of him cruising about on a bike after being told he wouldn’t even walk again is inspiring.
I just wish the video was of him doing the stuff he talks about doing instead of just talking about it.
I’m pretty sure he wishes that too.
‘You know, just staying healthy, just doing it, you know what I mean? Just doing it in a different way, doing it on bikes…it’s fucking cool man, it’s cool just seeing people take on a whole new vibe on a bike…keep cruising, keep doing your thing, you know what I mean?…keep moving…if you ain’t skating, you better be doing something…’.
Word.
‘Macho Taildrop’ trailer.
This looks like it’s going to be weird and good and it has Rick McCrank in it, which can never be a bad thing.
