It’s always gonna be weird explaining skateboarding to people who have no clue what it’s really about, but Tyshawn handled that pretty well honestly and made good comparisons. Congrats G
It's so insanely hard to explain...especially when you get your board taken from you.
Yeah he handled this well it was kinda uncomfortable to watch
@@WittledogbigWrld real
Ya he did a great job explaining something most people will never understand
They should've let Laura do more talking, she was enriching the conversation with every single thing she said and had some real interest, even showing love for Tyshawn's mother's restaurant. She's got a new fan over here.
Ebro hates women. He’s a classic misogynist.
Yes. There are so many overlaps between Hip Hop and skating. I've been part of both most of my life. So stoked to see Ty on Hot 97, that was a perfect choice. Don't forget there are tons of other NYC skate legends out there to consider for future interviews!
I hope people take 5 minutes to research this dude, he’s gifted.
@@pigandrunt nyjah is that you.
@@kevinmcqueen9180 😂
Tell “gifted hater” that lol😂 man’s was hating
When he Ollie clears the length of a picnic table from flat ground, that's Jordan from the free throw line level air.
Tell ‘em! 😂😂😂
"Tha pop y'can't stop."
Shout out Dill
Switch
Switch* Ollie
I think the black skateboarder Ebro was trying to mention is Ray Barbee. Btw thank you HOT 97 for hosting this type of interview! I've been listening to this station alllll my life and have always been into skateboarding, this was a fun listen!!!
Or Salman Agah. He had a pro shoe on Vans. Could be Ray Barbee though as he was on Vans too.
He said Steve Steadham
@@PsychoCitySkateboards Yeah-gnarly Alva skater! So good!
Nyjah Huston, he is really dominant in the force of skate contests
@@robbiehamilton447 actually It's Zion Wright who got on Vans Last Year before the Olympics
Big up Tyshawn. Rest In Peace Keenan Milton from NYC. That dude was my favorite in the '90's.
he was tryna think of ray barbee
ya
@KobyJINCS hell nah ebro to old to have been a kid in tk prime he talkin bout ray no doubt
He said Steve Steadham later on.
Yes bringing skate culture on a rap platform. I love it
i don’t
Skateboarding and hip hop go hand in hand
100% we need more of that
I fucking hate it
@@Snowlys why is that? skateboarding culture and hip hop culture damn near mirror each other. watch godspeed by davonte jolly on youtube, give it an actual chance and see if you still feel that way
This is the interview that was needed. Big props to Tyshawn 👌🏾
im back watching this 3months later , and Im loving how Tyshawn answered these random questions about race. He talks with his skills. much respect
Good to hear from TJ outside of a skating platform.
Dudes humble as hell & translates skating for them to simplify the understanding for not only them but all the non skater viewers. Dude took out Soty & he’s super chilling in this
Damnn shout out tyshawn, never imagined a skater on this show lmao. KING OF NY
@Thundercock be real man Jah was never going to win
There were so many other soty’s before Tyshawn, I wonder why they never made a video before? Why’d they wait until Tyshawn?
Tyshawn is amazingly humble. I love the way he breaks down core skateboarding for the hosts who know very little and seem to not have done research prior to filming.
Humble? He named his skate brand king.. lol
@@EricGronneberg shhhh
@@kevingeorge7843 lol
@NC Band So because he has a brand named King, he can't be humble??
I thought his brand was Hardies
Wooow, when TJ mentioned his first skateboard being a Kryptonic board my jaw dropped. My first board was one of those, and I recall my mom buying it for me at Dicks Sporting Goods.
that was damn near everyone's first board haha
@@ObsceneZombie for real, I remember the graphic having some type of green dragon on it
@@daedricmirror damn we all living the same life
They were a legit wheel company in the 80s also.
laura showing real love to skate community💯
Soon as he said black skater in the 90s my mind went to Kareem Campbell and then she synced up fifteen seconds later
So sick
Ebro rlly hit tyshawn w the “what’s ur best trick” line lmao
Never heard this guy talk much, came in here saying that I was gonna listen for 5 mins and ended up listening to whole interview, good dude
Hot 97 not tapped in, but good look on gettin TJ on the platform. He is that dude. Peace.
Look at the people on the show interviewing what would they know about anything who are these mfs lmfao
Tyshawn on hot 97 is crazy lmaoooo
This interview was great, a group of people genuinely wanting to be enlightened into a deeper layer of skateboarding and I felt Tyshawn did an excellent job representing what it’s all about 👊 💯
the fact that he brought up FA shows how much he valued his time there and what he and the rest of the team helped build
He's authentically cool and chill. He's not trying to be anything but himself.
love to see it, keep shinin!!!
stoked to see the crew showing skateboarding love...blessings into the new year
im stoked for Tyshawn but even more stoked for the youngins who get to have him as a role model. as someone who started skating in 2000, it's wild to see how far the sport has come
Hopefully people realize how big rap and punk culture is in skate culture
Dope as hell seeing Tyshawn come this far. Been watching him from the start and seeing him grow into the man he is today is crazy
S/O to Hot 97 for putting black skaters on the platform, we need more of these. Even if the whole core base thinks Nyjah was robbed of SOTY, Tyshawn the truth
Facts tyshawn goofy tho
Bunch of lames think Nyjah won. If you don’t think Tyshawn won then it goes to Louie or T-Funk. Not rape boy
they need to get Nyjah on here to spit techno raves and model slaves chats!
Every core skater ? You ain’t speaking for us lol every core skater hates nyjah. He’s a rapist and just a try hard foh
Man Tyshawn is way too humble. For those more on the outside of the skate scene this man released some absolutely historic skate footage over the last couple months. That kickflip and backside flip between the train platforms and the switch ollie over the picnic table are all tricks that had never been done. Also just the most wholesome dude in skating. Everyone should be rooting for Tyshawn.
Not really anymore he’s getting a pretty big but it’s deserved after being fucked over by FA and skating for supreme forever without being paid
Humble and wholesome might be the last words that I would use to describe him these days. This is just him putting on a facade for the mainstream media after all that soty fiasco.
Yea because talking down on skaters that have a drink deal or do comps is humble. Give me a break. Humble would be to not even speak on it.
@@Jcutts707 Having a drink deal is fucking whack and we all know it. I got way more respect for someone who'd rather pass on the money than sell themselves to Red Bull. I have no problem with skaters getting paid but have some goddamn dignity about it.
@♐BRILL 39327 lmao Jamie Foy is wack. And Zion Wright. Ok , the list goes on and on of skaters sponsored by drinks, ya gota make money to do what you want and actual skate companies barley pay them so what would you do all mighty know it all and judge of who dose it right or wrong.
Damn my man TJ made it bruh!!!! I can't believe I am seeing the SOTY on Hot97 !!! Skating has come a long way
Happy to see this 🔥
legendary , thank you for having this brother on the rap platform ! very very dope
Wow she knew Kareem lol. Kareem, Ray Barbee, Sean Sheffey, Keenan Milton(RIP) n many more, have had huge influence on sk8 community.
Surprised me too to hear Kareem mentioned by Laura
@@shreddinontape Kareem is in THPS so he's known!
Yea Kareem had mixtapes/album and he was well known in Playstation days. S/o Ray
@@HappyBowser777 I know he was in the game but she knew him and lived near to him so sounded more of a connection than just seeing him in the game
Don't forget about Sal Barbier .
Laura said Kareem Campbell and I was thinking exactly that , she cultured!
Ebro just needs to let people talk man. Loves hearing his own voice.
Drives me mad, he talks over him all the bloody time!!!
Aye it’s wild that tyshawn won soty twice and didn’t pick up a skateboard till 2010. Generational talent …
I feel like he’s naturally talented. The way He skates is so effortless
It’s pretty obvious why he was picked not a good thing to see Thrasher going for a popularity contest and how much they can get paid because they can promote tj and get idiots like Ebro to be interested in this white boy sport as he said I mean what a moron
@@thebayharborbutcher9115 tj just relatable I don’t think thrasher promoted this. And Ebro seemed genuinely stoked … skating just isn’t what he does and that’s fine
kareem, keenan, sheffey, rawls, watson n barbee (prob vans dude he was thinkin of) def nice few famous af-american skaters back in the day..
S Steadham, R Chatman, R Allen, S Barbier, Peanut Brown, Brian Ridgeway (editor) the list goes on….
This guy is an amazing fucking skater! He deserves everything good that's happening to him.
This is dope! NYC skaters getting love form Hot97..wouldve never thought
This is actually the best interview with Tyshawn I have ever seen. Thank you for this.
wow i aint know ebro was tapped in like that, make me like him a lil. Tyshawn a real one
My two favorite cultures coming closer together ❤
Love Tyshawn, Skater to the core. Funny hearing him explain the energy drink sponser thing lmao I'm glad orange shirt finally understood
TJ is a legend, a gift to skateboarding and black culture!! Hyped he's starting that new board brand with Nak fr
"I know the owner of the mall" - Tyshawn 'Smooth Man ' Jones
Bro got wisdom. This alone will help king grow. 🐐🔥
made my day bro
About time! Let's go
3:40 I think this is the first time I've heard of a top level skater saying they learned about skating from a video game! That is so cool, and I feel like it's fairly new seeing as how those games are about 25 years old now. All the pros who started because of the game would be in their late teens or early 20's. I bet we'll start hearing this a lot more in the next decade. I skated before THPS but the game and the culture around skateboarding at that time is what really made me dive into it fully.
If he representing skateboarding I am happy it’s him.
Tyshawn Jones everyone!
I use to have that as my background lol now I got his bs flip over the train tracks!!! Thank you for the best backgrounds!
i remember following him when he only had 500 followers 2012 after he 360 flipped a 10 stair and toymachine flowed him. Great seeing his progress
"Some OG TJ..."
Dope
Yooo sick seein skateboarding repped on here!! Skating was always popular in my hood bc it's relatively cheap to do too. Old heads used to have me do tricks all the time lol
More skateboarding interviews
WE MADE IT 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
If Ebro talked to the young rappers with this energy a lot of things would be different
Great interview! I couldn’t help but laugh when I heard one of them say skate was a generic game 🤣
Hot 97 x Skate Culture is the start of something really special❤
Tyshawn is the truth. Shouts Ebro for providing a platform for him to shine brighter. Massive congrats 2x Skater of the year
Bro wha this made my day fr I ain’t expect this
SOTY 2022 what!!!!! 👏🏼 lets goooo
True, you gotta see how good he is!
This is such a big crossover for skateboarding. Way to represent Tyshawn ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Love the show! This was an especially rad interview!
Great to see Tyshawn on here, one of the best ever to do it!
Tyshawn has had some fantastic song selections for videos too
Saw a clip of Tyshawn skating Paris in timbs killin it and became and instant fan
About time! 🔥
Yoooooo this is lit!!! TJ on Ebro they gone hate this!!#SOTY🔥🔥🔥
Big respect for his thoughts on drink sponsors
Y’all Goated for this The Real King Of NY Streets 🔨, Skateboarding and Hip Hop always went hand in hand for me from the jump , hope y’all invite more skateboarding guests
Thank tf outta ya’ll. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Tyshawn is one of those guys that say something regular but it still sounds profound
Been a fan of homie for a hot minute. Dude can skate.
I love the part where he didnt act like he was special even though he is. A LOT of pro skaters will have the same trick arsenal because they are all performing at the highest level of it. Some have a little easier time and some dont with certain tricks I'm sure but, these guys have been doing this their whole life and as a skater myself. Your goal is to learn ALL the tricks in the book.
His mid tops are probably one of my favorites shoes. Found them randomly at a Ross.
Thas dope
This was interesting seeing a skateboarder being interviewed by non skaters.
I really liked the questions asked🫶🏾❤️🇿🇦 S/o to Tayshwn for the SOTY ‘21
Dope ass interview, keep putting on Tyshawn.
There was some of the best black skaters back in the day man, javonte turner , kareem, Stevie . Love the legends
Skateboarding isn't for any certain race, this podcast sucks.
@@joshuasmith6346 agree but.I appreciate the legends and tj already a legend
@@jakegutierrez2323 soooo many black skaters I looked up to back in the day. I was a 90's skater
Hell yea Tyshawn this gotta be a dream for a kid from Bx
Dam this was a great interview
this is so FUCKING DOPE...SHOUT OUT TO EBRO, LAURA, PETE AND THE SQUAD....THANK YOU
Respect to this young man!
Kareem was a beast. Love what Ty is doing for the skate community
Slammin’ interview. 🤜🤛 Happy New Year !
Finally 🔥🔥🔥🔥 need to get the og Kareem Campbell on here 💯💯💯💯💯
👏🏽🏆👑 I wish there was a few of his clips mixed into the interview
There's been tons of top pros that are black. I can't speak to whether it's accepted in the hood, but one time I was skating in some hood in the Bronx I wanna say, a white kid. There were some serious characters at the spot. As soon as they saw I was skating I was fine. Infact they even told me the trick to hitting the gap into the street, timing the roll up by the change in the street light. This was in like 2001.
Kick Push Kick Push and coast!
Tysawn a modern legend for sure. Great interview.
Let's go TJ! SOTY again my boy! 👊🙏
Tyshawn is absolutely amazing. That Ollie over the picnic table defied physics. Still think Nyjah might’ve deserved SOTY though, both are amazing though
Naaaaahhhh man Tyshawn is for the people. Nyjah's only for himself. Being a respected skater is about more than just what tricks you do.
@@BRILL-vb1jy Yea you made that up and have no proof. Just holding another black man down.
So sick seeing Tyshawn on 97. He kills it.
Damn the music parallels are a good way of explaining it
Shout out the king! Love this! Thank you hot 97 👏🏼
Tyshawn: “It’s gotta be big money for me to do a drink sponsorship”
Ebro: “What’s big money?” 👀😏
Tyshawn: “Seven figures”
Ebro: “Gotcha” 😈😂
Ebro the pocket watch king 😭
Relatable content I asked for skating in the hood , I feel so seen finally
Tyshawn 🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️& hot97 from way back🌎❤️🎉
crazy interview ! tj really goated! so close to home
