this song for sure kicked off the skater era

[SunGod]

I'm from L.A breh
its like i had no choice

I never fell victim to this. We used to clown the jerking nikkas. You disappoint me, brother.

 

[How Sway?]

nikkas is really in here saying Kick Push started the poser skateboard era in HIp-Hop?
Vans by The Pack had nikkas buying Sk8 hi's and Famous shirts
That song was getting way more play than Kick Push

I dont know about that breh.

i heard kick push way more than vans, but i was still in chicago around that time so that may be why

 

[How Sway?]

Kick Push was a dope song but if we are being real, skating didn't catch on like that among urban youth as a result of that song. I'd say skating really started being trendy around 2010.

If you want to be really real you can thank lil wayne for influencing dudes, who otherwise would've never picked up a board to start skating.
But Skating was slowly becoming more popular among black and 'urban youth' anyway.

Naw Vans peaked at 58 and Kick Push peaked at 78.

You know you're getting when people start getting nostalgic about mid 00s

 

[DIMES]

Breh you were out here doing the jerk
I hated that dance so much

The jerk era was a time to be alive




If u could jerk nice school wide crowds would form & baddies would recognize

Bay Area nikkaz starting trends

Bro I will always have love and respect for Bay Area nikkas.
Real shyt everybody thing it's a joke but y'all really did set a lot of trends in this Hip-hop shyt and never get the respect y'all due

They blessed us with the cover...............

 

[MF budz]

Vans had vans popping and shyt but i know nikkas who legit went out and bought a skateboard after kick push. I remember my white friends being pissed at kick push, "all he does is an ollie in the video" .

That pack album was getting played at every high school party though.

thats how i was at first but then i said whatever helps bring revenue to skateboarding and keeps the guys paid then fukk it. I can point out the posers and smh at em snd keep it moving. Skateboarding damn near died in the 80s i dont see that happening at all now jist keeps gettinf bigger and bigger.

Skating was "trendy" from the late 90s on
