DHarrisburg Posted June 16, 2006 Report Posted June 16, 2006 Holla... we are the hip hop generation...my buddy was at the Ghostface Killah concert about a month ago and he said it was almost all white people. That's because Ghostface is idolized by white hipsters. Go figure. From a promo standpoint, Rap would have been a lousy choice IMO. Uhh... What? Quote
librider Posted June 16, 2006 Report Posted June 16, 2006 From a promo standpoint, Rap would have been a lousy choice IMO. errr? How so? Look on newschoolers, and look at most all ski movies from the past 2 years. All rap. It sells and flows with skiing and snowboarding. Quote

Nipples promo= being sent to industry people - read: desk jockies NS ski movies = made to impress a very small young demographic Quote

Timeless Posted June 16, 2006 Report Posted June 16, 2006 I see no reason why myself and many others on here won't be listening to rap music when we get older. How old do you think you are now Doug? It's funny seeing people being critical and giving advice on tricks since he's the best freestyle skier on here. Is that true outright, or true with respect to his age? I thought we had some other accomplished freestylers on here. I thought the promo was Quote
Justo8484 Posted June 16, 2006 Report Posted June 16, 2006 choice of music totally depends on who you're trying to sell yourself to, and what kind of image you're trying to portray. something like 50 cent might bot be the best bet since you arent really a super gangster, but a little upbeat hip hop with some good flow to it would suit your riding style well i think. to me, that sort of music seems to better represent nipples' skiing.

swdorsey Posted June 16, 2006 Report Posted June 16, 2006 i love the argument over the song choice hahah who cares honestly it really doesnt matter and nipples knew the song before i edited it and OK'ed it so no bitching people or else. If the rider wants rap i will put it in his video but nipples never said anything so i didnt. On the whole gangster standpoint do we really want to look and act like thugs? sorry im not trying to change any opinions or anything but when it looks like you are wearing a trashbag, teh whole gangster/thug image goes a little overboard. I have no problem with hip hop or rap at all if you listen to it and want it in your video ill put it there but if you dont specify dont bitch at me for putting in a song that you dont like. (not saying that that bipples is bitching but you get the point) Quote

Nipples promo= being sent to industry people - read: desk jockies NS ski movies = made to impress a very small young demographic Err, I know quite a bit of "industry people" and I can promise that the music selection in a promo video has little to no bearing on the decision to sponsor someone.

snorovr Posted June 17, 2006 Report Posted June 17, 2006 It's funny seeing people being critical and giving advice on tricks since he's the best freestyle skier on here. I didn't see any criticism that was negative... Kid got props from everyone, some just expressed how they might have used different music so that the promo would appeal to them more. You getting your threads confused? Quote
swdorsey Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 lets not go into whos the 'best' freestyle skier. it will just cause an arguement Quote

toast21602 Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 i was about to. i think i still might take it. i'll have to think about it since Doug's statement is completely incorrect though. Quote
snorovr Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 Doug's statement is completely incorrect though. Is that news? Don't waste your time...You've skied with Nipples enough to know whats up. Quote
