I used to tell nikkas back in the early 2000s when this rat-faced nikka really became popular to watch out for this one. Any black man born in the 70s / early 80s and grew up in the hood was not a guy who'd be into skateboards, tight jeans, or alternative punk-style. Then out of the blue here comes this weird lookin mofo pushing this skateboarder culture into hip-hop like it's something we grew up on.
I'm as open-minded as anyone, but still, that culture he was pushing then was just something we simply didn't identify with, The music was cool, but it was the younger, pre-teen nikkas that embraced all that skater sh!t, and within 4 or 5 years they'd be wearing tight-ass jeans, vans on their feet, acting like emo fukkbois and walk around with skateboards as if we have all these half-pipe ramps set up in the city

. And now that punk-hip hop infusion has led us to society accepting men in tights & skirts

. And don't think the gay agenda has nothing to do with this, punk's resurgence in the 2000s was more based on its fashion sense, not the music, and we all know where fashion is involved, there's fakkits behind it. And Pharell seems like the type of weirdo who'd be down to

for any alt-lifestyle agenda.
In summation, dude just seemed to try too hard to be on some "look, I'm into skateboarding & punk, I'm not one of
those types of blacks" even back then. If you up on ya game, these type of cats ain't too hard to sniff out
