“RISE & SHINE” NYJAH HUSTON PREMIERES AND COVERAGE
This was a week chock full of premieres, events and buzz surrounding Nyjah’s new RISE & SHINE part. We kicked off with a private screening at Element’s headquarters.
The day after the screening at our Irvine headquarters, a viewing was held at The Berrics in Los Angeles, California.
A day later, another private RISE & SHINE showing was held at Transworld‘s skatepark in Carlsbad, CA. After a heated and sweaty session, fires were re-lit after watching the vid.
The next evening, we celebrated the opening of our new Universal Citywalk store with a premiere. The crowd was massive and kids were hyped.
To correspond with the release of RISE & SHINE, Thrasher posted a Hall of Meat clip featuring one of the nastiest slams Nyjah endured during the filming for RISE & SHINE. It’s never good when you bounce on concrete. FYI: Nyjah got up and got the back smith.
Strange Notes posted a vid of Nyjah warming up at his hometown park in Costa Mesa, CA before heading out to film for RISE & SHINE. I wish I warmed up like that.
Phew. Helluva week and helluva video part. Get yours HERE. Get stoked and go get some.
