The Board Bangers build upon the urban skater image fostered by Pharrell Williams and Lupe Fiasco with "Skateboard Thug." Shots of palm trees and waves dissolve around the rappers, while skaters slowly rise and descend on a halfpipe with the same confidence with which the Board Bangers describe their lifestyle. The action happens within a tight letterbox with rhythmic graphic elements that appear on the white frame. If the group makes good on their promise of a video for each track on both of their new albums, then this is just the beginning. (review by Craig Belcher) --> watch "Skateboard Thug"
