  • Now it can't be denied that skateboarding may be an element, but to call it the Fifth Element isn't exactly correct. According to the God Father of Hip Hop, Afrika Bambaataa, the Fifth Element is knowledge, wisdom, understand, peace unity, love, and fun. Yes all of them together to make the 5th element. Yes, all of those together. If you get the chance check out the Bboy History channel. There are a ton of documentaries.

  • @sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeit that has to be one of the most ignorant comments on youtube. Read a book

  • @IChaseCarsNotDreams not if they want to do it all day every day. how could they afford it? he's talking about on a professional level, like all college students are in school to get work. and nothing is wrong with monetizing skill. that's exactly what you do with skill when you have enough of it. everyone does what they do for money. bills dont get magically paid by parents indefinetely. and saying that with a name like 'Ichascarsnotdeams'...

  • Ryan Farley is wrong. Skaters should skate because its what they love, not to get sponsored.

  • did u get an a

  • the song is from people under the stairs love there music

  • @sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeit its not even about race. Its about being from the inner city, the rough life

  • skating gave me so much the last 15 years, that was the best thing in my life so far. i cant quit it though i really should cause i hurt my ankles so often really bad. thx for the vid

  • Hip hop came from black and latino people acting black and latino. Seeing as the majority of skateboarders have been white throughout it's history it's safe to say that skateboarding is definitally not hip hop. Souls of Mischief just saw a market to sell their work to dorky white boys pretending to be street as did Wu Tang. P.S. I'm a dorky white boy who used to skate.

  • never had so much peace to the art of skateboarding.
