SKINNYMAN - THE SMOKING VAN/ BAN
April 27th, 2008
The Skinnyman/Ugly Kids story goes like this….
Here at The Ugly Kids Club we have a lot of love for Skinnyman.
Since before we started working with Skinny…. a lot of The Ugly Kids including myself were big big fans.
Council Estate of Mind is a one of THE classic hip hop albums, period.
And in my opinion a battle MC is one of the truest forms of Hip Hop, so make sure you hit up The Jumpoff battle archives for Skinnyman to see how serious with the off the top lyrics he is, google it, youtube it…. anything blad. Trus.
So last summer, getting a call from Skinnys manager; Shinobi saying Skinnys a real big fan of us was donuts. We linked up and it weren’t long before we popped off The Smoking Ban collabo Tees. We linked up with Skinny and The Mud Fam on their UK tour in autumn 07 and joined in the ridicolous drink and smoke antics. Check the Myspace blog…. big ups to Bomb. Ha
The Smoking Van
Skinny has started touring again this year, so we pimped his ride: Ugly Kids Club style.
Westwood may be a big dog but he aint got nothing on ‘Big B’. I dont wear rings, but im gona buy one so he can bow down…
WWW.THEUGLYKIDSCLUB.COM launch
Skinny performed in the main room on the night of our launch.
We take care of our fam here at The Ugly Kids Club, so we kitted my man out with a special ‘cowboy’ outfit… we even sorted him out with a Cowboy gun which he was happily sending out guns shots wit. Bomb dealt with the hat, BV merkled the creps and i did the blood splattered suit.
Big ups to Robin Bharaj for the pics…
Brand new Ugly Kids Club and Smoking Ban Collabo tees
You know we had to drop the ‘dead cowboy’ graphic on a tee… available in 5 different colourways.

As we near the one year anniversary of the ban being put into place we will be re-releasing The Smoking Ban Tee for the very first time online exclusively through us.

I was lucky enough to have a sneak peak of the smoking van and it looks great actually on the real van.
