You’re going to be in a video game soon right?
Yeah, I’m going to be in Skate 2 for, I don’t know, Playstation. My character looks just like me, it’s got the tattoo and everything.
Is it your first video game?
It’s my first video game. I don’t play too many videogames but this one’s really cool.
Did they make you skate in one of those cyber suits to get your movements?
Nah nothing like that, it was pretty basic. They just took pictures of me, in like 360 angle. I went into this voice recording studio in LA where they recorded like two hours worth of stuff from me.
They’ve got you speaking on it?
Yeah, we just recorded things like, “Congratulations, you’ve made it to the next level!” or “Ride on!” or “Heads up!”
Did you swear for the slams?
I was swearing a bit but they probably take that off…I’m stoked to be in it though, it’s good publicity and it’s good for numerous things. It’s kind of why I’m doing this Kingpin interview as well, you know. The world is bigger than the US and the US magazines, and I just want to be out there on a broad scale for the fans out here in Europe as well. Just a little Jah blessing!
