Crime in Sports - Not Gonna Front - "Compton Ass" Terry Kennedy

Episode Date: August 4, 2026

This week, we talk about a pro skateboarder, who didn't have the same start as many skaters. He came from a rough background, with no father, and a drug addicted mother. But he thought skate shoes were pretty cool, so a career was born. He makes some major waves, with a fashion label, and collaborations with famous rappers like Snoop. He ends up doing something amazingly stupid, killing a man. You'd think that would teach him a lesson, but he allegedly does something even more crazy, as soon as he gets out of prison!   Think your friend's shoes are so cool that you start skateboarding, make yourself one of the most beloved people in your sport, then attack a fellow skater for virtually no reason, and screw up your entire life with "Compton Ass" Terry Kennedy!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

Skateboarder this week, which I love the skaters, because I have a shitload of skateboards. skated when I was 12 and love it. So good shit. This is Terry Kennedy. This is his name, not the old San Diego Padres Catcher. Different guy. Terry Kennedy, also known

as, quote, Compton Ass Terry. Which is a... Compton Ass? Compton Ass Terry. All right. Terry with his Compton Ass. Yeah, Compton Ass Terry, which is a great nickname. And then the less colorful nickname of T.K., which is just as a

So I'm going Compton Ask Terry. That's a great name. Compton asked Terry. Guess where he's from? Compton? Nope. No? Not even.

He's from Long Beach. He's from California. He's from Long Beach. Is Compton not in Long Beach? No, no. Separate city. Long Beach is by the beach. Because he's from,

because Drey's from Compton and he's from Long Beach. Oh, got it. Compton and Long Beach together. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's that whole thing. Oh, got it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Now you know you're in trouble.

Yeah, we're two separate places. We're coming together for this. Yeah, Long Beach, Snoop, by the way, went to, because my cousin who does research for this show, Ian, he grew up in, from like eight on, he grew up in Long Beach. So he, like, in his year book is Snoop and Cameron Diaz in the same year. Hilarious. Snoop went to, yes, Snoop went to high school with Cameron Diaz and like blonde, you know, spray fucking hair sprayed hair and shit. Either she's dangerous as fuck or he's just a little puppy.

It's just a lot of people from different areas go in there. That's it. But yeah, Terry Kennedy is also from Long Beach. So for Ian, who also was a skater for years and years and skated in Long Beach for teenage years. This was probably fun for him because he got to find out about all sorts of skate spots and shit there that he used to go to. Now, Terry's born May 27, 1985. So not that old of a guy even. Grew up.

Mother problems with substance abuse. Father, not around at all. Okay. So kind of a not an uncommon crime and sports origin story. No, no. And also not kind of a not an uncommon way of life for anybody born in 85. A lot of people. Yeah, just a lot of people.

Absolutely. He has two big brothers. here. He's a black guy, by the way, which you kind of have to say for skating because there's not a ton of black guys in skating. Yeah, that's rare. It's not rare, but it's not super, you know, there's not a million. There's more now, but there was less black guys then. Oh, for sure back then.

There's a kid now on the internet, James, who does backflips and shit on a board. I don't know how this motherfucker keeps it on his feet. It's, people are doing wild shit now. It's unbelievable. It's like everything else. It just progresses and progresses and progresses. This kid is mind-blowing. Now you have to do shit that's so dangerous to do that it's like, it's crazy.

That it's not even, it's more of like a spectacle almost now. Like, rather than technical ability and skill. He's just so athletic. That's more of what it's about now rather than kind of technical abilities and, you know, whatever. It's a different sport. It's got much different. Making a new trick is hard to do also. Yeah, yeah, it is.

It is hard to do. To make the board do something that it hasn't done yet? Well, and just to come up with something that other people haven't done yet because, I mean, there's a lot of people. There's a lot of people rolling around at skateboard. So how the hell are you going to come up with something that's like coming up with a new band name? You know what I mean? Yeah. From what?

It's all been used. Where do you fucking go from here? So, I don't know. Now, a little bit about Terry. What? Should we let Terry explain himself? Terry, tell me. I think we should let Terry explain himself here and do a little bit of an in their own words here.

In their own words, quote, I played football and basketball, right? But I used to always see a kid I played on the basketball team with. I was an eighth grade at the time. After practice, I'd be like, damn, he had fly skate kicks on. And I didn't know what they were. so I'd always bug him about everything he was wearing. Eventually he got tired of me bugging him about his shit and was like, dude, why don't you just skate or why don't you just go to the skate shop and buy this stuff?

And I'm like, nah, man, I ain't trying to skate, man. Hell nah. You know, just trying to be too cool. So that's how he got introduced to skating was through the fashion. Because he liked the yetneys. He's like, you got fucking badass kicks on it. And this is probably 90s, eighth grade. So that would be like 98.

There's a shitload of skate shoes. You could still rock airwalks. You could rock fucking tons of shit. Vision Streetwear is still around, I'm sure. Vision's still around. But Vision really fell off by like 92. They made some ugly-ass shoes. Airwalk kept up with it till about the early 2000s and all the DCs and all that shit took over.

They're doing it still, though. Airwarks? Yeah, yeah, yeah. But they're not really considered kids. Those are still going on. Vans are, yeah. But like when I was a kid, vans are like were for old people. Yeah.

You know what I mean? Like now they've come back when I was a kid skating. Like you didn't wear vans skating. Kids would make fun of you. You'd get beat up for that in New York. Really? Fuck yeah. It'd be like,

what are you wearing? They were certainly around in 99 again. They came back hard. But like 92, like in New York, nobody wore fucking vans. That just wasn't a thing. You didn't wear vans. You wore like some chunky shit that could take some abuse. He said eventually I ended up going to this park,

called Cherry Park that was in downtown Long Beach and saw two other black kids I knew. From there, I felt comfortable because I knew them two dudes. And after that, I just started going up there every day. Okay. So I think for a while, he was like, do I skate? Do black guys from Long Beach skate? You know what I mean? Like, is that, I like the shoes, but is that enough, really, to transfer to another culture here?

Now here's an interview from blackenterprice.com. And they said, how did you get started in skating and ultimately starting your own businesses in the industry? And he said as a teen, a friend who was a sponsored skateboarder at the time taught me how to develop my skills. I'd see him after school and he'd be skating in the nice skate shoes and gear and I'd ask him how he got it. And he told me he got the gear through sponsorships. I want it in. So it was really the fashion. that drove him to this.

I wanted free clothes. It wasn't even money. He was like, that's a dope shirt. And he was like, I got it for free. He's like, how to fuck you do that? He was like, take this board, make it flip like this. And he was like, all right. I get free shot, no.

Cool, sounds good. That's fucking awesome. And that's, man, as a kid when you're skating, too, you'd look through the fucking, there's this little booklet, little catalog that would come out. It was like small. And it'd come out every month at every skate shop. And it had every fucking board. It had every brand, every board they had, every wheel, every truck, every fucking all the t-shirts

in the back. East Bay for skaters. Yeah, you'd look at it every month and just drool if you were poor. You know what I was? You just sit there and drool and be like, oh, I want that shit so bad. You couldn't get it. So I know what that feels like. He said, he told me to just start skating and performing in the gear.

I started connecting with other skaters and from there I was addicted. I loved it. I put together my best tricks on a minute's worth of footage. And from there, the company opportunities came. So that's the thing. By then it was 85 years born. So yeah, I mean, if you're early 2000s, you could do that. Wow.

There's digital video. It's much easier. Whereas in like 92, how the hell were you going to do that, basically? It was a lot more difficult. He said he would sometimes hide his skateboard or walk the other way. to avoid the neighborhood gang members because there's shitloads of those and different gangs, by the way, too. Different ethnicities.

My cousin was like, yeah, there's Samoan gangs, there's black gangs, there's a Vietnamese gangs. There's like, it's like the fucking warriors walking through Long Beach. So he said that they would call him white boy and they couldn't understand why a black guy would skate. So this wasn't like in the black culture, this wasn't considered cool. This was considered like white shit. Called him white boy.

Yeah, yeah, white boy, what are you going to do next? Go put a Fugazi tape on? The fuck are you doing? Like, listen to some punk music. Yeah. Where's your lifted truck, white boy? Yeah. Where's your truck nuts?

He said, but I just saw through the negativity. To me, this is what kept me out of trouble. Through skateboarding, I was able to see outside my neighborhood and expand my horizons. So that's the thing. That's like somebody seeing a kid who got a football scholarship and going, oh, shit, you can get out of here. Yeah. He saw kids skating and having, like, companies give them things. things and like going to tournaments that weren't in the neighborhood and shit.

And he was like, oh, this is, I can get out of here like this. So he had his, was first sponsored at age 13. Oh. By vans when they were making a comeback in 1998, like I said, late 90s, which was a big step because that gave them gear and exposure and they take pictures of you and shit at that point. And playing tickets to go skate. Fuck, yeah.

In different places. Yep. And he hooked up with local skaters at the parks that were also sponsored. And, you know, then he ended up getting a bunch more support from Baker skateboards. Oh. This is only, he's only been skating a few months. So he must be very athletic and good at this. It's one of those things that's good in general.

And skateboarding, some people, it's very strange. Some people can get on a skateboard and just do shit. It's just weird. Some people have crazy balance and they don't need that. practice. It has a lot to do with core and your control of your feet. Yeah. Because you can skate.

Most people should be able to stand up and push the board pretty easily. I would hope so if you have a reasonable balance. Yeah, it's the ability to make the board do things and then land back on it. That's the hard thing. Yeah, that's the difficult part. It's tough. But if some people, People have a knack for it that right away.

It's crazy. You'll see a kid if he gets on a skateboard right away. He gets the balance. He figures it out. And you could tell, okay, that kid's going to be a good skater. Whereas other people, it's harder. But anyway, his mother ends up dying when he's 14 years old from drug-related issues. So that's not great.

That compounded a lot here. So that's not good. So he ends up living with his grandmother. Drug-related causes, they said. Oh, no. O.D. or some other, you know, Hepitis or who the helm? Yeah.

He got the nickname T.K., which is not much of a nickname, while Compton-Ass Terry started from his brother teasing him, calling him a white boy for pursuing skateboards, for pursuing skateboarding. So basically, so he had a lot of like, you know, he looked like a street guy. So they called him Compton-ass Terry. that's just the way it worked

so he gets into he's got the early sponsorships he's got shoes he's got a board and just having a new board when you fuck one up is a huge deal huge deal when you have no money skateboards were you know even if they were $60 $60 a lot of fucking money back then

and my mother wasn't giving that to me Baker made cool ones like their logo was badass oh they were like that the block letters and shit Baker was cool So he's in like local contests and shit like that about age 15 and, you know, doing, there's always everywhere skating. That's one thing about skating.

You got to do that shit every goddamn day. Oh, my God. That is a very... That's your transportation everywhere. Yeah, and it's such a specific skill. It's like hitting a baseball. Like, you could be the best at it. You take two months off.

You will not hit a ball the first 10 that are fucking thrown at you. It's just... You're terrible now. You need to hone back in on that. It's hard. So he then relocated. in his late teens into another part of L.A.

to be, I guess, closer to the industry is the way he put it. And he's doing like, kind of honing his skills, getting ready to do amateur video segments and shit like that.

And by the early 2000s, he's in magazines. He's making appearances on companies' videos. They make these skate videos to every company used to make them to showcase their skaters,

basically. And when you were a kid like me, you'd be sitting there watching that shit going, oh, they're doing that, okay, you know, blah, blah, blah. There's like some of them that are just legendary, these skate videos. We watched 100 times. So people started to notice him because he, number one, is so new at it. He didn't, you know, he wasn't doing this since he was eight, like a lot of the kids. So they were, everybody was always impressed with him.

And he's a very good technical street skater, too, if you watch him. He's good. Kifin on. He is. So he was in a bunch of videos produced by Baker where he's got a certain charisma of the way he skates too. That's the

other thing. Skating isn't all about technical shit. Yeah. It's a certain it's like basketball when it comes to that. You know what I mean? Finesse. You can show me all these fucking fat Europeans all day long and show me their stats and then when I watch him play, I go, I don't want to watch that guy

play. He looks like shit. He plays like a big, yeah, he plays like a fat guy at the YMCA. I don't want to, like an old fat man at the YMCA. Show me somebody who's got style. And, you know, you want that. You want that whole package. That's why Jordan was so famous. And so, you know, he had a charisma out there.

You noticed him on the floor. You know what I mean? He had an attitude in the way his body moved. That guy feels so homosexual to say. It's very gay. It's very gay. But he did. There was a bunch of guys like that.

that just had a certain swagger as Sean Kemp out there in the 90s, a guy like that before he got fat when he just had a swagger to him. Stacey Ogman. Yeah, a certain way they moved in a certain way that just made them look for Alan Iverson. Everything he did looked fucking cool

on a basketball court. Just look cool if you're a kid. Even the old man from the Blazers, Clyde, he looked great. He looked so smooth. It was fascinating too because he looked old as shit. He looked old and he just looked all bald and shit. That was just a look a year.

He looked like that. He looked old as fun. If he just shaved his head and didn't have a mustache from day one, he would have looked fine. But otherwise... He was like 28 and he looked 47. He looked like an old man. Like, oh, he must not have much time left.

It's like, he's only been in the league six years. What are you talking about? And his name was Clyde Drexler. Like, what is an old name? And his whole thing was just very smooth. Clyde the glide, just smooth. Yeah, that was him. So he had an appearance in Baker.

2G in the year 2000 where he shared a segment of it skating and people noticed him right away. So yeah, he's got a real fearless approach to handrails and ledges and shit like that. That's another thing you have to have. You have to go, I'm going to jump up here and I'm going to fall 10 times, probably drive my ball sack up into my chest cavity eight, nine times before I come anywhere near landing this shit. You have to be okay with that in skating. And then by the time I landed, I'll be worse for where, but everybody will be so impressed. That's where skateboarding left me was in the, I'm not going to destroy my ball bag for fucking 10 straight times before I get this right.

For glory. Yeah, I'll do, you know, I'll, I'll, you know, I'll, I'll try to kickflip into this, you know, grind and I'll do that shit. And I'm not doing anything crazy dangerous jumping off of shit. That's not my, I'm just, I'm just, That is the funniest part about the whole sport because there's, if you're just doing this on the street court, it's not like on your, you have a phone app that's like a gamble game and you can make money that way. There's nothing. Lose your house that way. Gonna pay you. No, not at all. Not at all.

You have to fucking love this. That's the thing. It's got such an internal battle of me versus this fucking goddamn gravity and scale. skateboard who are working in concert against me, by the way. Yeah. The skateboard's not on your side. It's on gravity side. It's you're on your own, basically.

And the other part is if I break this board while doing that, now I walk home. Yes. When I was a kid, if I break this board, now I don't have a board for a long time. I'm fucked. And I walk home. I remember my friend's board got ran over by a car and we just stood there. It ran it right in the middle and poof, just snapped it. Yeah.

We just stared at it. it for like three minutes because it was just like oh you're crazy bro you're not getting shit we're both poor he's like we're not that's over that's over with you're not getting that back go get your go get your trucks off it i remember just got handed him the skate key like yeah trucks i guess i don't know man that's fuck so um yeah this gives him a big uh you know people start to notice him right away and if you're like the only black guy on the video too you stand out which also helps you know what you mean and your style's different too than the other guys. So he's in three videos here, 2001 and 2002. Go for Broke. And then another one called

Baker Summer Tour 2001, which came out in 2002. Just to make it confusing. It's an expose about yesterday. Yeah. But he was still really an amateur at that point. He's finally a pro. He signs with element skateboards in the early 2000s. I've never had an element. so I don't know if they're any good or not. I mean, I've heard they're fine. Yeah, I've heard they're fine, but I've never skated them myself to know kind of how they are.

So, yeah, he does that. He releases signature board models and does promo videos for them here. April 15, 2003, there's an interview with him from Up in the Cut, is the name of the publication, the quick rise of Terry Kennedy.

And yeah, So he says, where'd you grow up? And he said, well, I was born at St. Mary's Hospital on Atlantic and 10th Street, which my cousin Ian says is a few blocks down the road from Long Beach Polly, which is the high school that he and Snoop and Cameron Diaz went to. And I assume where this guy went through. They said, you've never lived anywhere else except Long Beach. And he said, I've never lived anywhere else. Straight, L.B. always. In the same house, he said, nah, I moved around.

And he said, you live with your grandma. And he said, still live with grams, holding it down 24-7. Grandma doesn't go out and run the streets. That's good to know. They said two big brothers and did they skate? And he said, never. They said, you're the only one in the family who skates? And he says, only one making that cheese.

Oh, boy. Everybody else can do what they want. I'm skating. They said, how'd you get into skating? He said, called up my boys, Evan Hernandez and Knox Godoy. And my friend Marcus used to go up to Cherry and play basketball at a little basketball court. They used to roll out onto the stage over there. dudes would be over there skating off the stage while I was at a little basketball

practice trying to do my thing you know baby Iverson that's what they called me back in the day because I had the braids but never mind that Jesus he is all over the place but never mind that anyway when I was four so also whoa I went to school with Evan he started skating out of nowhere and I was like damn I saw him up there at the stage over the summer and I was like what you've been up to damn for real i kept going up there and seeing him and i was like fuck i was getting over basketball because they never started me because you weren't iverson right you weren't you weren't exactly baby iverson i think is what that all you had were braids for that yeah um he said marcus was like you should start skating knox was actually the first person to hook me up with some shit he used to hook up

Evan and Marcus back in the day too. Started skating in some globes. Those were my first skate shoes. I had a birdhouse deck with low ventures trucks. That is venture trucks. Skating a little twig back in the day off the stage. Busting my pop shovets, 180s, shit low basics. So a little pop, you fling the board.

I don't know how to describe that. Take your back foot, push it, and the board spins around. Now the back part's in the front. how many years ago was that a good three years ago yeah three years ago and they said that's it three years and he said yeah pretty much probably more like three and a half almost four now they said do you think you were a little a little young to be getting all hooked up and shit and he said the great professional interview question I found an interview with a genuine journalist. I remember when Barbara Walters had Henry Kissinger on for an interview and she said, you didn't think you were a little young to be getting all hooked up in shit? And he said, Barbara, Barbara, let me tell you.

A lot of N-Shit running around the NBC. Ed Bradley's famous for his in-shit at the end of his questions as well. Oh, he's very famous for it. Larry King was big for it. Let me ask you a question here. Line 5, Tulsa, you're on the air. What's your question and shit? There it is.

What's your question from Maya Angelou and shit? Let's go. Oklahoma City, we hear there's a bombing down there. How's the carnage and shit? Are there dead people and shit everywhere? What's going on? Talk to me. I heard there was a take care.

Are there babies and shit? Babies and shit everywhere. Oh, the babies and shit. All dead. So they said, do you think you're too young? And he said, no, I think I got it too fast. But I don't know about being too young. Where I'm from, you got to grow up fast.

You know what I'm saying? Mom ain't always there for you. You got to get out there and hustle and do what you got to do to get something to eat. He said, yeah, I can admit on that one. I did get it way too fast. I don't know. Some people just have that type of talent for it. The type of eye, like this kid's got the potential to be something.

You know what I'm saying? I guess somebody's seen that in me and hooked me up, the Baker dudes. And they said, do you think that messed up your perception of skating? He said, yeah, but outside the skate world, no. Inside the skate world, people look at you like, yeah, he's a good skater, but he didn't have the prettiest sponsor me tape. Okay, that makes sense. They said, you just appeared out of nowhere.

And he said, nobody can knock me because the rules are the other way around. Tables is turned. Anybody would take it. You know what I'm saying? it's like hey how you doing okay oh so you're friends with them yeah cool seeing you skate did a couple tricks liked your attitude and then the next month people be on some shit like nah nah you didn't deserve it so it's exactly like it's exactly like stand-up comedy is what you're saying yeah exactly i mean he just described stand-up comedy and shit yeah i saw you got an applause break yes

right you did all right i saw you doing your thing and I figured, fuck it. You're friends with that guy. You went on the road with that guy once. You must be a good comic. Sure. All of a sudden, you're an opener at the club. And then this other dude, he's been trying for years and he ain't getting shit.

That's what he just said. So how did you first get it hooked up with sponsors? And he said, Andrew Reynolds used to come down to the park and pick those dudes up, Evan and Knox. One day, Andrew and Beagle, that's who used to film us back in the day, came down. And Evan and Knox were like, can Terry come? That's when I filmed that shit in the first Baker video. All that shit I filmed was from that one day. Actually, it was two days, a Saturday and a Sunday.

First, I went to L.A. to crook the Beverly Rail on the day Evan front side flipped it. Then we went to the stairs underneath the hallway, and I did the half cab and steezed out, you know? You know, Jimmy? It's a trick. It's all part of it. Steased out? Yeah, yeah, it's part of skating. It's like, yeah, the trick he's doing, or not a trick, but I, yeah.

And then it was like, damn, this kid's cool. I started hanging around for a minute. Right as I started hanging with them, they alerted Baker. It was like, we'll carry these three, carry these three ams, and we got the pros kicked out. Okay, they're the amateurs. That was the goal, because before they put on Evan and Knox, they didn't want to blow it up that tough. the whole goal was to take some kids out of nowhere, then blow them up like they did, you know what I'm saying?

And it fucking worked out. He said, so you guys were the little crew and then you went your own way? How did that come about? He said, needed the means at home. You know what I'm saying? Like my grandma and fucking bills, I eat everything, man.

I didn't even know if those dudes could take care of me. They said stuff and never really came through. Even though they is some good people, Andrew is my dog. It's just that I bumped heads with those. element dudes and they were like if you need this taken care of you need health insurance and that it ain't a ball about the money it's all uh it's all about the point that i can just call someone up and know i'm safe on the team not worrying about something bad happening to a person just be stuck

out there stranded okay um this is the most amazing interview i've ever heard it's fucking crazy i can't believe they can just i mean i guess because you know the audience and you know that this isn't going on the fucking 10 o'clock news. This is just some, the right people are going to read this. It's never going to be in the wrong hands. Exactly. And that's why real, that's why like podcasts where it's real comedians actually talking about nuts and bolts of comedy never works either. Right.

It's so specific that you think you want to know about it, but if you hear them talking, you won't understand half of you and what the fucking saying. Yeah. We're going to talk in a language that you don't even get and we're going to talk about things or you're going to go, what are you talking about? Well, because it's a shorthand. Go do stand up and you'll know all about how we sneeze out. Go out on stage a thousand times,

stease yourself silly, and then tell me how you feel. They said, so how did it feel to break out on them? He said, I didn't break out. I mean, I felt bad. Of course I did. I ain't going to front.

I felt bad really deep down. And then what really made me bummed was when I talked to him, Andrew, and he was like, so are you going to quit? And I was like, nah, I don't know. Then he was like, oh, well, do whatever you want to do. I understand what he was saying. He ain't trying to force nobody to be nowhere, but he still came out at me like, we've been there for you, this and that. And at the same time, it hurt me, him talking mess on me. You know,

that goes to. I'm over it, man. I knew I needed to go and be my own person. I was living in too many shadows. On Baker, it was just like, oh, that's the kid who just got hooked up because of Evan and Knox. I was just over that shit. People would see me and be like, Andrew just put you on the team because he thought you were funny and shit. Just living in that shadow too long. I had to break out and be on my own.

You know what I'm saying. Yeah. Had the odds against me on purpose just so I could go out there and do what I got to do. That's right. So what kind of car you got? A Jeep Cherokee on Dub Duce's.

Not Tony Duce. What up? That's a useless vehicle now. The whole point of Cherokee is to go off road or be able to like, you know what I mean? Go form an event. You cannot take a Jeep jerky on 22s. How to fucking lose.

Can't take it over a speed bump. Things can break. Yeah, if a Jeep Cherokee isn't unreliable enough, how do you make it more unreliable? Put the wrong wheels on it and see what happens. There's a reason that Jeep doesn't put 22s on their car. No shit Then he says one of the wildest sentences of all time

You know that same-o-same-o sitting on a Barry Sanders It's all good though, you know I'm 20 Barry Sanders on 20s Barry Sanders is number 20 That's all I can It's got to be It has to be

But they're 22s That's not Barry I understand that Maybe you should have went with Drexler who was 22. That would have worked. Was he 22 or 32? Was he 22?

He think he was 22. Yeah. Definitely wasn't 32. 34? Wow. They said, so you're thinking about breaking out of the hood? And he goes, thinking about breaking out, man, have to pull a sleuth. Okay.

What's the family? A sleuth. I don't know why. I have to scope it out, I guess. He's got to see how it's to investigate. It's got to investigate that shit. They said, what's the family think of that? they with it man right now in my hood masters and masters and blacks are just warm like going to school

and shooting them up that kind of warm i don't know man shit's just too tough all i can say is that i'm served by my hood time i'm over it okay um i am lost yeah they said you've you've gotten a lot of money thrown at you obviously do you think that's messed up the reason why you skate He said, nah, I ain't even going to front because before that a year ago, I didn't even know Ams got paid Amateurs. We didn't get paid so I didn't really know. I just got

hip to the scene with it. And I know that just because people offer you money doesn't mean you can just jump, especially not for stuff like that because you'll burn your bridges with a lot of people. So you do it just because you want to do it or because you really need it or because you never had half the shit these motherfuckers

had. Everybody didn't grow up with a silver spoon and they mouth. You just really have to get on that grind and do that type of thing. It's all good. Yeah, yeah. He said, let's say skateboarding, they said the interviewer, let's say skateboarding just died. Are you planning for the future when those big checks when those big checks aren't coming in? And he said, if it seriously crashed right now, I'd be at the lowest peak in my life, which is lowest peak. Everybody in my family dropped shit because of me right now. just put everything on hold.

So if we get up and move and a year later, it crashes, I'd be fucked. No joke. I couldn't work at McDonald's, man. I'm sorry. I just have to carry that weight. Sell a thug deuces or something. Get that type of bird flipped it laughing. Okay.

They said, so what do you think you'd be doing if you weren't skating? Probably selling them birds. What? Okay. They said, it's just the way it is, huh? And he said, seriously, man, all my brothers and everybody do it. It's just like, fuck. They said, that's just what's around, right?

And he said, exactly. But that be sad, too, because I'll fuck my past up. If I move out now and shit crashes, I'll have to move back into the hood. So I'll really have to put work in just to keep that name out there, because Smithers will be on my head, though, on my head tough. Sorry. People in my area are already on me tough. They don't like me.

A lot of them are jealous of me. They think I sell drugs because they don't know I skate. Like half my hood don't know I skate. I'll just push around and they'll be like, what the fuck? They swear I'm pushing that weight, but I'm not. Shit's funny. Everybody thinks he's selling drugs because he's got a pot to piss. Wow.

He said, how are you handling people knowing who you are? And he said, oh, I love it. I'm not going to front. Through this whole interview, I don't think he's going to front. He has made him. Perfectly clear that he is not going to front. And if you want him to, you're barking up the wrong interviewer or interview subject, lady. I'm sorry.

Does he ever, does he ever elaborate on which birds he'd be selling? He's selling drugs. Right. That's what he's thought, yeah. I don't know what bird would be. He doesn't say which bird it is. No, no, no. It doesn't quite make that clear.

But, so they said, how do you handle people knowing who I am, who you want? are. He said, oh, I love it. I'm not going to front. I love attention, man. I'm down for it. It's cool. It's sick, man. I help out everybody in my hood, too. I just throw them shit. Even if they don't skate, it's like, go sell this board to a kid instead of doing something else. I try to do what I can just to give it back. I mean, somehow, and that's not even a front, it's not a front, Jimmy. He did warn, but would not, yeah. I seriously push in my hood like 24-7. I know where I stay. Okay. So there we go. Now, 2003, he was in a TV show called Switched. I don't know what the fuck that is. No idea. He was in one episode of it. 2003 and four, he appeared in four episodes of Viva Labam.

No, yeah, I could see that. Is MTV? Oh, my God, I know who he is. Yeah, now you know who he is, right? Yeah. Yeah. He's dangerous. He's very good. Oh, he's real good. He's a great skater. He appeared in guest spots alongside Bam Margera during episodes that featured chaotic pranks and skate-related challenges. His energetic participation, often involving high-energy skate stunts and comedic interactions, aligned with the shows. He kind of fits in with that whole. He's very funny, too. He's got a great smile and like a good laugh.

Yeah, and this made him be in other things, because people saw him and gave him a mainstream audience. Skating is very niche. It's like wrestling. It's like it's so fucking niche. Yeah. To get outside of it is very difficult. Like Tony Hawk did it. Yeah.

Name five other skaters. Like if you're not a skater. You know what I mean? And this cat happens to be very handsome as well. Like he was a very handsome man. I can see his face at this moment. And I was telling Presley, my daughter, I don't know why I said her name, but it doesn't matter. I was telling my daughter yesterday that it's very rare for somebody to be in

incredibly talented at something and be good looking. That's why it's so wild when somebody's really talented and incredibly good looking, they're wildly successful because of those two things. That's why, and there's so many singers out there, and there's so many that are so fucking bad, but they happen to be attractive enough to sell this bullshit. There's been plenty of those throughout history and more now, because now they're like, you don't even have to know how to sing. We'll just make it work.

Just be hot. You'll sound like a computer anyway, so it doesn't matter. Either way, you're going to sound like Siri, so who gives a shit? Yeah, it's very rare that you get a Whitney Houston that happens to be classically beautiful. And what the fuck is that? Yeah, how do you go do that? If you can sing like that, you get Celine Dion. Or Adele, right, yeah.

Yeah, you get like, I don't want to eat that. That's not good. Yeah. I don't want to get that. But that sound that comes out of her fucking face is mind-blown. How do you do that? Incredible. Yeah.

Fucking incredible. Yeah. He ended up with Barbara Streisand. That's what happened. Yeah. Or any number of males. You could have. Oh, tons of them.

Yeah. You kidding me? Jesus Christ. Barry Manilow's stupid face? Fuck, yeah. And they're still sex symbols. That's the difference. He could still get pussy today.

Yeah. An ugly woman who sings well, people are just like, oh, she's a great singer. An ugly guy who sings well, women will throw themselves at him. Fuck, yes. Which proves that guys don't care. what you do. You could be, you could have 10

platinum albums or work at 7-11. We have, that matters equal to us. We don't give a fuck. All we care about is that's very sad. If you look like Celine Dion guys go, ugh. Yeah. Ew. No part of it. Whereas women

they'll look at fucking Barry Manilone be like, he's a piece of ass man just because he's saying fucking, you know. Women still try to fuck Elton John. Yeah, he wants no part of it. He wants nothing to do with it. And he's a tiny bald troll.

Yeah, like, who has no interest in vagina. So 2004, he's in a music video for Drop It Like It's Hot. He's in that music video. Oh, he's in that? His dog with fucking Farrell there. That's a, oh boy. Yeah, that's a big video, too. That's big shit.

Farrell was involved in skate shit, too, wasn't he? That's what we're going to talk about. There's a apparently him and Farrell get together here in 2000, mid-2000s here. And I guess he had a, Farrell had the billionaire boys club and it's skate-focused extension, ice cream. That was the name of it. Ice cream skate team. As captain of the ice cream skate team formed around 2005, Kennedy helped bridge skateboarding culture with high-end streetwear. Again, mainstream culture and shit too.

participating in promotional tours and events with famous people and all that shit. The partnership extended to joint apparel and footwear drops where Kennedy modeled and endorsed ice cream's premium clothing lines and reboxed co-branded sneakers such as the board flip series released starting in 2005 and then retroed since. That's an interesting name for a skate team when ice cream is such a slang term for cocaine. Maybe that's part of it. So 2005, he goes back to Baker skateboards, where he's in the video, Baker 3. Kennedy's, it's a big deal, apparently. It's, this is like a big for skating. It's a big deal for him.

People really are impressed with his shit here. They skate at L.A. River and Hollywood High, where Kennedy executed long front side crooked grinds and faky alleys to lip slides that emphasize technical precision and urban improvisation. Yeah. Hard shit. The videos cultural impacts a big deal, elevated baker status and Kennedy status and everybody up and brought everybody up into everything here. The L.A. River is that canal that's from D2, or Terminator 2 and Greece, right?

I believe so, yeah. I think that's true. Yeah. Otherwise known as Thunder Road, yeah. More affectionately known as Thunder Road. Or the place that Edward Furlong sweat his fucking balls off thinking he was going to die. Where Olivia Newton-John, for some reason, took her shoes off to watch a street race in her socks. That's rough sewage, ma'am.

The filthy L.A. River basin. It makes no sense. John Chiboltz is about to splash that L.A. sewage all over that pock-faced fellow. Yay. She's fucking clapping. Oh, man. Okay. June 9th, 2005. Here we go. Some crazy shit happens. Kennedy, Compton-ass Terry, is shot twice.

Oh, fuck. Once in the forearm and once in the jaw after leaving a party in Long Beach. Yeah. Hitting the head. Hitting the head. He was only 19 at the time, I think. It was 2005.

Yeah, it didn't turn 20 yet. He was about to get into his vehicle when a man standing several feet away open fire. Wow. He said, oh, okay. Quote, this is a minefield. This is Terry's quote.

I should give them an in their own words on this. Certainly aren't my words. And definitely going to skip a couple words. Here we go. In their own words. If you shoot a black guy from Long Beach, you're about to have some shit you can't say. Definitely some stuff you can't say. In their own words, quote, I seen it when it happened, the whole thing.

I seen an N-word shooting, shooting, and I swear it was like the matrix. I seen the bullets flying through the air, then hit me in the jaw. What got me mad was the N-word was shooting from far away. I'm like, this N-word is not no police officer. Don't nobody have that much aim to hit me dead in the jaw. He's mad that this guy's good at shooting. He's like, how dare you shoot me from a distance? And he had that thought?

How dare you? Well, he's shot in the jaw. That's what he's thinking about? Excuse me, Mr. N-word. I have a question for you. I want to have an accusation at you as well. You're not a cop. You are not a police officer, N-word.

What the fuck, man. He said that he drove himself to the hospital, same when he was born at. He said that he doesn't think it was stray bullets. He doesn't know why people shot him. He said he doesn't have any beef song going. So he doesn't understand it. Yeah, that feels targeted. He said as I'm driving to the hospital, I was like, of all places, why the jaw?

I don't have a reason for getting shot in the mouth. I didn't do nothing to nobody. I'm a skateboarder. I'm not on rap songs, dissing N words or nothing. I'm not like, you know, try to shut my mouth up. He said, why would someone have something against me? If you have something against me, you're just jealous. I'm doing a sport that don't know what he mainly do that's black.

You obviously got to be hating. All right. Yeah. Interesting. Now, he says that he's been worn constantly by Farrell, by Farrell, to be careful where he hangs out because people get jealous. Yeah. Like, listen, motherfucker, you are now more visible than you were before. You've been in my video and all. You need to chill the fuck out and he's not.

T.K. said, we talk and I never want to listen. He tells me to slow my role and kick back. I'd be like, he's just popping off. I'd be like, I skateboard, because ain't nobody trying to be. worried, nobody trying to worry about me. He tells me to get a bodyguard and I'll be like, he's just singing his song. He'll be like, people know you deal with me. People want to rob you. I never want to listen. I'm not a hardheaded dude, but I got a lot of pride. All I can do now is just listen. This is unbelievable. He went from five years ago not skating to now he hangs out with

Ferrell and get shot in the face for it. That's a lot. Thanks a lot, bam. Yeah, Jesus Christ, man. He said he's confident his career will be stronger than ever once he recuperates and he says that's going to be his revenge. He said, quote, it will eat them up for me to be shining and doing what I'm doing, referring to whoever shot him.

He said, what eats them up is I got a Chrysler and an avalanche on 26es. 26es? That's just silly looking. You ever been jealous as somebody with their Chrysler? Yo, he's got an avalanche. Oh, fuck this shit, man.

Fuck him. I got to shoot him. He's got an avalanche. Next thing you know, he's going to have an equinox. I'm going to have to cut his fucking throat. On 26es, that motherfucker rubs when you turn. Hell yeah. He rolls up with an equinox on 30s.

I'm killing him. I swear to God, I will murder him for that shit. What the fuck Chrysler does he have? Who's ever... I can't wait until I'm successful one day. I can give me a fucking Chrysler. Chrysler and an avalanche. Oh, it's a 300 M.

That's what he's got. That's he's got a 300 M because it looks nice. And the avalanches what fucking Rex Ewerman drove. Yeah. That's not the Long Beach guy. The Gilgo Beach murderer drove that. That's how they identified him for a year because it was fucking truck. He had the same truck.

Yeah, because he had a doucheback truck. It was very identifiable. That's amazing. He said, it's sad because it's really on Mem. It motivates me to just get a Bentley and really wreck it. All you can do is be happy you're here and live it up and just shine. That's why you bought that Chryslerman. because it's the poor man's Bentley.

Yeah, because you got you glance what is, oh, it's just a Chrysler. You do that. It's a Chrysler. Fuck. So he was hospitalized, underwent surgery, and did rehab, so he couldn't skate for a little bit here. But he made a full recovery within several months. And by 2005, late 2005, he's skating again.

Wow. He said, emotionally, the shooting left a lasting toll, including visible scarring from the jaw wound. And now he's really in it. He said, I got to start skating like my life depend on. on it like I promised God. If I stay on this board, I'm not going to look in no other direction. 2006, he has a, this is the dumbest thing I've ever said on any show. Yeah?

He has a feud with rapper Lupi Fiasco. You don't want a feud with Lupe. Because Lupe's song Kick Push. Uh-huh. He felt Lupe was an outsider trying to claim skate culture without paying dues. So Kennedy responded with a disc track targeting Oh, now he's going to wrap Focusing on Lupe Fiasco.

Yes. So Farrell brings him into the recording studio to meet Lupe face to face where he realized he was overreacting And they made it out. He was like, dude, here, meet this guy. And he was like, what's up? He's actually a pretty cool guy.

And he was like, yeah, he's like, I don't know what the fuck I was doing, man. Never mind. That was that. So that happens a lot. There's so many beefs that be squashed if one person that both people respected said, you and you, you get along. Here, come here. And you go, oh, all right, never mind. That's, you know what I mean?

Yeah. I've had that happen with people before it works. So he co-founds in 2007, Fly Society, a streetwear and lifestyle brand alongside his cousin, Michael Tyler, who does music producing and shit like that. Um, the, he's, he's, trying to blend hip-hop influence with skateboarding culture, basically. That's his cousin, Michael Tyler? Yes. Michael Tyler is actually famous, I think. Known as H-I-T.

He's a lyricist and music producer, Fuzzy Fee in Long Beach. Huh. I don't know. Maybe he is. I don't know. So this is trying to make a cultural thing here. So the brand expands and it gets in like stores like Zumies and Tilly's and Macy. and that helped destroy shit.

Yeah, Fly was very popular. Yeah, Fly Society, yeah. So they had plans for a woman's line. Kennedy played a pivotal role in the brand's creation and creative directing, participating in the brainstorming, the design process. And he said the clothes aren't flying until you put them on. That's what they, that's what they, so you make the clothes flying, apparently. So this worked for him.

2007, Team Ice Cream, Volume 1 Skate Video, he's in that. 2007, Bam Margera Presents Viva LeBanz, volume two, and also he's in Bam's Unholy Union, which is on TV, it's a miniseries.

I think he's getting married or something, because he's like knelt down in front of a woman with a garter thing on, like he's about to do something. 2007, he does acting sort of. He's in a video game as a voice acting. a game called skate period

skate period is the name of the game period yeah it's an order 2007 he's in a video featured here called beef four a documentary beef beef

beef four beef number four okay it says beef has expanded from its hip hop roots into the entire culture skateboarders ballplayers actors and comedians are all getting in their own beefs here we reveal the truth about many kinds of beefs inside and outside of hip hop.

Beef 4 takes an extensive look into what went wrong and who diss to cause such animosity. Who dissed who? Who dissed who? I got to know. That's what ACDC would sing if they were rappers. Yeah. And you definitely see, yeah, a bunch of guys. So it's, oh, it goes on.

I'm sorry. what went wrong, who does do, to cause such animosity, exposing the reasons why some unlikely people are getting caught up in their own beefs. Separating the reel from the fake with a comical twist, Beef Thor features interviews with the game,

chamellionaire, Paul Wall, proof, young Jeasy, bow wow, Trina, Jackie O, which is a ridiculous, fucking hilarious name. You can't do that. That's crazy. Jackie with an eye dash O.

Yeah. Lupe Fiasco, Terry Kennedy of an ice cream skateboarding team. Bun B. B. B. Segal. Damon Dash. Jesus Christ. He'll do any video now, David.

This is a lot of... People eat the bit of that. It's a lot of Southern black people that are involved in this. It's kind of... Yeah. Yeah, I get it. Yeah. Daz, corrupt. O. B. Trice.

Hell you. Fidel. Opie Trice. Oh, B. Trice. God damn. And much more. Yeah. Okay, 2008 Maloof Money Cup TV specialies himself.

It's a skateboarding like event. Maybe it's at the Palms. Maybe it's that Maloof brothers. Probably, yeah. Ones who own the Kings in that hotel in Vegas. 2008 X games. Here we go. He placed 18th in the X games in 2008.

So there you go. I don't know, 18th in what? I don't know. It's an overall ranking. I'm not sure. But, yeah. 2008, he's in another video game

called Skate It. And he's a voice actor again. 2009, Ming Hags, which is apparently a movie. It's a movie that has three directors, which is a terrible sign, by the way. Yeah. You see more than one name under directors?

You're in a lot of trouble. That's because somebody quit. Somebody quit or got fired. Yeah. Or just decided to let someone else also put shit in that doesn't match their shit. Even the Cohen brothers decide who's directing the film that time.

There's not both of them. Or they realized halfway through that this is a piece of shit. They don't want to be part of it. Then you'd get Alan Smithy instead. Then you get that. This is trailer trash rockers Lenny and Ponce have vowed revenge on billionaire

scumbag rutruh which sounds like a dog that's about to encounter some trouble. and his bloated sidekick Dominic who have heisted Ponce's cool invention, the garbage juicer. Okay. Whoa.

Bam Margera's in this. Oh, God. Ryan Dunn. Yeah, dead. All these people. Jesus Christ. It's all jackass shit. That's what it is.

Yeah. Yeah, Compton asked Terry. Bam Margera's dad. All these people are in this. Yeah. Is this animated? I can't tell if it's, the cover's animated, but that doesn't mean that the movie's animated. So who the fuck knows?

But he's a voice actor, so that... He's not a voice. He doesn't say voice. It just says he plays Comptonass. That's his name. Oh, yeah. Well. And I don't know.

It says, it's Bam Margeras, Minghag's the movie. So he's got, he's above the title on this one. Oh, my God. That's why I know what Ming Hag is. It's, it's, it's, it's, BAM created that word, or those two words together. Okay. I don't know why they... Rubbing all up on each other.

What is it? I don't know. Rubbing up all on each other, those words. I don't know. Minge hag. But Minghag means something to him. In England, it would be Minge and that'd be different. Yeah.

It's a Pennsylvania slang, I think. Okay. They do some weird shit there, so I'll believe that. Yeah. 2009 X games, he goes advanced to the 2009 X-game street elimination range. finishing 11th among 15 qualifiers. Okay. 2009, he explores music production as an extension of his entrepreneurial enterprises,

contributing to fly society's hip-hop output, including a 2009 mixtape bloodbath, and the 2009 release, fly with us or lie beneath us. Sure. These efforts positioned him as a rapper with all sorts of shit here. So he's doing actually wrapping now. Okay. Which is interesting. So now he's going to disfokes or what?

In 2010, a dispute arose when Kennedy trademarked the Fly Society name without the consent of the former collaborator, Curran C, who by the way replaces that last, that last C with a dollar sign. Current dollar. Current dollar. Yeah. leading to a public feud, I cannot, if you have a fucking number or a symbol in your name, I will not produce,

I will not pronounce it how you want it. I will not be a part of anything you do. I will not be a part of that shit at all. Not going to happen. Like that asshole who killed that fucking teenage girl. Yeah, David with Defore? Deforvid, you mean? That's his name.

That's what you've put on a piece of paper. Deforvord. That's what you've decided that I'm going to call you now, because that's what those words mean when you Those things when you put them together Mean de-forvid So fuck you You little asshole

De-forfeit who God that guy's a turd He really is Devivitated a woman Yeah Hardcore man Fuck yeah Decap a Tate with the number eight

With the number eight on it That would make sense, though. I could deal with that. A four is not an A. You can't use that as that. We use that make sense. He dismembered with threes for the E's. Just three dirt.

Fucking awful. Dismathreed her. That's a bit. So he's fighting with current dollar sign E. Yeah. Okay. Dollar sign. Stupid.

Dollar sign. 2009, top 12 moments of the BET Awards, a TV special. He's in that. Rob Deardick's Fantasy Factory. Fuck, I hate that guy.

He's also in that. He's very annoying. I don't know how the hell that he had a show for 20 years. How the fuck? That guy had a show that was on as long, longer than Lucy.

Like, how the... And he cried about it when it was over. I was like, dude, no one even knew you were still on. How the fuck are you still get paychecks? There's no way. If people knew how big you were, they wouldn't never have

your shoes. Like, oh, these are for tiny people. I can't wear these. For size four, for Christ. If people knew what that little fuck looked like, there's no possible way they would have bought his goddamn shoes. Big was the reason he was successful. That guy was awesome.

Yeah, yeah. Well, it was the contrast between the two of them. That was funny. That was the whole point. Yeah. But that guy, did you know he was still on the air when they said he was going off the air? I didn't know. I figured they had canceled him 10, 12 years ago.

Elfr Christ. Every sports bar in this country, though, that you go into had that bullshit playing in the back corner. The name of the show drove me insane in the first place, because it's A, long as fuck, and B, dumb. That's the dumbest fuck. Who the fuck produced

that and was like, yeah, that's what we'll call. I'm not even going to say it because it's annoying and it makes me feel like a piece of shit to say it. I hate that show and I hate him. Oh, man, that's fucking funny. I love it. Okay, 2009 documentary, Concrete Jungle. And Tony Hawks in it, Travis Barker, Terry Kennedy.

That's the top three stars it says here. Travis Barker, does he skate? I guess he does skate. Yeah, I think he did skate back then or at least. Either way, that's the somehow... That's the image of a trashy skate. That's what I mean. Like Blink 182 was very much enmeshed in that late 90s skate culture.

That was what they were. Yeah. Them and Pennywise. were in every skate video game as the fucking soundtrack to it. And they toured together for a while too. Pennywise and really, that'd be a fun show. In the mid-90s, yeah.

They blink 182 talked about how they would torment them basically. Pennywise, they're crazy. Fletcher's in a lunatic. Fletcher's a maniac. Why don't you torture those people? Because that's what he does. Wow.

Fletcher fucks with people and there's nothing you could do about it because I don't know if you've ever seen, unless you're real into this. Oh, Pennywise tortured them. Yeah, Fletcher for people. Pennywise is a fucking mountain of a pert. You can't say anything to him.

He's like 6, 6, 300 pounds. Yeah. Massive, insanely huge human being. And he's crazy. Yeah. They made some great shit back in the day. But yeah, that's, they almost, he had the, on love line, he had the SWAT team called on him. Oh, fuck.

He put his back against the studio door and told the cops he had a grenade. This is on the air. This is all, you can listen to the episode. It's fucking crazy. He gets shitload, shit-faced, drum. and starts telling them they're not leaving. I salute him. He's like, you guys aren't leaving.

And he goes, I'm going to stay right here. And like Dr. Drew's trying to talk to him. This was like, I remember this from 25 years ago, but Adam was like, fucking he goes, well, you're right, I'm not leaving until 1201. And then I'm leaving. And he's like, I don't know. We're going to figure it out because I ain't stay in here at work longer than I have to. He was like, still thought of it as a work problem.

And it's like, this guy's crazy and he's going to kill you. he's a fucking lunatic so in the 1970s on opposite sides of the city opposite sides of the country two separate yet equally dynamic new art forms were emerging both possessed a rebellious spirit

and quickly evolved into movements that had become a global phenomenon and the creative voice of a generation hip hop and skateboarding were born as they both came you know west coast skateboarding east coast hip hop as they were rising

together that makes sense he's in a movie I think called street dreams where he plays a guy named Reese in 2009. He's an escape video. Baker has a death wish summer tour there. August 2007 here, this is via blackenterprice.com. Nice.

That's your home screen. You usually keep it on, right? Yeah. I know usually you do. I get alerts on the phone. Well, you got to have them alerts coming in. I can't. Push notifications.

You're fucking right. I want. Totally, totally. So they said, Celebrity Side Hustle, skateboarder Terry Kennedy stakes his claim on the industry. And it's just talking about him,

you know, becoming, being an entrepreneur. Right. And they said, what attracted you to apparel? And he said, your clothes and how you put your look together as part of the skate culture,

which it really is. What attracted me to the apparel, apparel attracted me to the sport? That's, yeah, the other way around. Which it really is, what shoes you wear, there was a whole thing. I remember as a kid skating of what you,

even you're bored, it must be like what rednecks are with truck brands. You know what I mean? He's a Ford man. He's a Chevy guy. I was like, you like, when I was a kid's like, oh, you're an 8th Street guy. I'm a fucking, you know, New Deal guy

or I'm a pal guy or whatever the fuck. Globe guy. Expand it into all the other ones. But it was, yeah. So he said, the people I looked up to in the skating industry taught me everything firsthand. I learned how sales take place,

how to cut and sew items, had a screen print a shirt. So absolutely. They said, what did you learn about finances and business branding once you saw success? He said, pay your taxes first. The people I was blessed to be around taught me right away pay my taxes, then buy property. Good job. Pay your fucking taxes.

I ended up buying a loft at the age of 18 or 19. Then you get a good accountant. Then start building companies, build a brand for yourself. And he said that, that's how you make it all last. That's it. Smart moves. 2010, he's in Skate 3, a video game, where he's himself, the voice of himself. October 12th, 2010, he becomes a reality TV star by starring in the reality show being Terry Kennedy.

What? I did not know this existed. Where the fuck is this? Where was I during all this? Was that MTV? I don't even know. BET. Oh. Right now, it's streaming on BET Plus and Prime Video Channel.

So you can watch this on Amazon. I don't know where it originally aired. Wow. Oh, it's BET. It's BET. It's on the cover. BET being Terry Kennedy. But it was not aimed at me.

That makes sense. It's got a 4.9 out of 10 on IMDB, which is not great. That's terrible. That is not good. Meet Terry Kennedy, one of the most gifted and successful skateboarders in the world. The series will track Terry's rise from humble beginnings in the rough streets of Long Beach to the Plush Valley where he now resides with his family. Yeah. And they do it, typical.

First episode, Meet the Kennedys. Oh, God. Yeah, Terry hires his family to renovate District 8 and it was flagship store for Fly Society, his new brand, blah, blah, blah, blah. He heads to New York and does this. It's all this shit. Yeah. Terry, his family members all vie to gain Terry's favor in hopes of getting to go to the Espies. They said Terry's invited to the Espies and has given one extra ticket to bring a guest.

And then his whole family has to perform some crazy, you know, why I deserve to go more sitcom bullshit. Oh, boy. Road to Alabama is episode five. Terry learns his father is alive. Oh. And living in Alabama. Terry has to decide whether or not he'd like to face his old man. Next episode, good and bad in Bama.

After meeting his extended paternal family, including two of his siblings, he feels comfortable coming face to face with his father. Oh, boy. All right. Rob Deirdek is in episode seven asking Terry to join him. Street League, a premier pro skateboarding league. Yeah, A.

Get Out the Wood. After getting advice from Snoop, Terry decides the group has to take matters into their own hands and produce their own music video. Finally, last episode, with his first Street League competition coming up, Terry practices hard and decides to ask

his father to meet him in Arizona so Terry Sr. can see him skate for the very first time. Oh, he's going to skate in Arizona? There you go. So, That's what happened here. October 2010, this is about his TV show. There's a big article about his TV show. And it basically just kind of covers a lot of the shit.

People called him a white boy. Yeah. Yeah, he said people around about skateboarding, he said, his grandmother and his brother, quote, they thought it was a hobby. No one else did it in my neighborhood. But it's funny that's the same people who told me to do something else that I'm now taking care of.

Okay. Yeah. They also talk to Paul Rodriguez, who's actually Paul Rodriguez Jr. Oh, is it a son? That's comedian Paul Rodriguez's his son. Do you know that? I assume that. I don't know who he is.

Oh, you know, he's a, Paul Rodriguez Jr. is a really big skater. Oh, really? He was a huge skater. He was big with Nike for a long time, sponsored there. I mean, he probably grew up in fucking East L.A. That makes sense. Shit. East L.

Maybe, but no, because he was young. Now, Paul was already famous by the time he was a kid. Yeah. And Paul lived next to, I believe, Don Henley, I think he told me. What? I opened for Paul Rodriguez in 2013 or something. Did Paul make fucking Eagles money? Paul made a shitload of money.

Really? Paul, look at how, look up his IMD. He'll go, I forgot he was in all those fucking movies. He starred in a shitload of movies. Back then, he was the Latino star, period. So they made these movies, you know, a million to one and born in East L.A., but there's so many more.

He had TV shows. On the road, he would kill it. He would go do theaters and crush it. He was fucking... And you know... He had that niche locked, man. He was... I mean, he's fluffy before fluffy.

He was like, he was so likable. But I hate that they... Oh, wow, yeah, look at Little Paul. How about that? Because when I opened for him, he, there was a commercial with his son on it on TV. And he was like, he goes, ah, it's my son's new commercial. Yeah, he's looking. And I was like, that's your son?

And he's like, yeah, go, I know what the fuck that is. Yeah, he's got, I didn't put two and two together. And he goes, yeah, that's my son. He's old medals, James. Yeah, he's a fucking badass, dude. He's badass. And Paul was very proud of him. Yeah.

But yeah, he lives next to, I want to say Don Henley or Glenn Frye or one of the Eagles, he lives next to him. Yeah. Joe Wals or some shit. Lives in the fucking hills, man. Yeah. Paul Rodriguez Jr. said he's so positive about Terry. He comes from an area where it's very easy to be negative and be angry about your life.

Somehow, he manages to rise above all of that. He said before the show was picked up by BET, Kennedy said some television networks didn't believe his show would make it. And he even had his doubts. He said, yeah. He just never thought it would happen. But I ended up working and BET took it on. and he's very happy. So 2010, he's on the Monique show.

Oh, yeah. He's a TV show for a while there. Motherfucker. Paul Rodriguez made $150 million. Yeah, bro. He was... Holy shit. There was not a lot of comics doing the size of venues he was doing every goddamn day.

I mean, in the southwest and in Texas and shit, oh my God. every fucking, he killed it, man. That's amazing. In 2012, when I have 13, whatever, he still had his crowd come to the show. I mean, they were there for Paul Rodriguez. It was wild. He's a real nice guy, too. I'll tell you something.

And this is the funniest thing I ever heard him say. We were watching TV. You know exactly where I'm going because I told you this. We're watching TV, and after his son's commercial came on, and there was something else, and there was a guy upside down in a garbage. garbage can with his feet sticking up. Live PD. Live PD and he was pulling something out.

And he looks up and he goes, that's Carlos looking for jokes. I was like, hell yeah. Fuck yeah. I was like, fuck yeah, bro. And then he told me all he's telling Carlos Bensia not to steal a shit or he was going to have him killed fucking stories. Wow. I wish I would have recognized as a kid how important he was because he came to my school to speak to the, yeah, because I grew up in a Mexican neighborhood.

And they, so he came to the school to speak to the Latino boys. There was not a lot of like Mexican dudes that were leads in Hollywood films over and over again, you know, that weren't named Cheech and didn't have Chong next time. Right. And didn't have a, these are. And not a lot of, weren't about weed. Right. We weren't about doing illicit activities, right. Yeah. Yeah, he was, he did real well. I think he lived in Phoenix for a while, Paul Rodriguez. He must have. Maybe. He brought the old Cardinals. kicker in with him there. Some other... Yeah?

That's one of the people... He had an entourage, bro. Which one? He was a fat Mexican guy. Oh, yeah, Brahma. Was that the name? No. I think so.

The guy that got injured a lot, right? I don't remember, but he brought him in. After the show, he had like 20 people in there. Before the show, nobody, but then after the show, he'd bring 20 people in. They were all very nice, though. But, uh, anyway. Yeah. So, he does interviews here with XXL magazine, which is a hip-hop magazine there.

They said, first skateboarding, then rapping, and now a reality series on BET, whose idea was it for your story to get told? And he said, I wanted to pitch a show, but every time people would be like, Compton-ass Terry, and me and my manager are sitting back like I have more to me in life. I'm doing much more in life and I'm trying to give back now. I'm 25. I'm a grown-ass man. I got more to offer.

I got more responsibility. I wanted to go to BET. I sat down with them, and they were like, dude, you got to get your story across so you can motivate them kids in your neighborhood so they don't got to go through the shit you went through. I wanted to be around my peoples and I specifically want to talk to my people about this moment right here so they can be comfortable in your own skin and have a dream. So there you go. They kind of go over a bunch of stuff. It talks about Feral and talks about, you know, we had currency in the group as well. Currency. I can't stop laughing at that.

Is it a dollar sign and a Y at the end or is it just... Then a Y. Okay. Instead of the last C, it's an S with dollar sign with a Y. Right. Because he doesn't... Does he know that there was a C? I don't think it matters.

Because a sense sign would be better, right? It would actually make more sense, but who's the sense guy? You're a rapper. You got to have dollars, man. You better have dollars. Can't have sense. Pronounce the S and the dollars. Or you call yourself 50 cent and be the biggest.

sell fucking 40 million albums. Either or. And that's a stolen name. That's a gangster from the fucking 40s. Yeah, everything's stolen. Everybody's robbing everybody now. Especially for movie characters. I mean, Biggie Smalls was a fucking

movie character. It was a movie movie movie. Was it Uptown Saturday Night or some shit like that, I think? Yeah, Biggie Smalls was the crime boss in that movie. Jelly Roll was a jazz singer in the fucking 20s. There you go. Unbelievable. Among other things. Nobody's got any fucking originality.

No. So they say on your show being Terry Kennedy, you have guest appearances by Ice Cube, Snoop, and Justin Bieber. Oh. Does that mean you'll be working with them in the studio soon? He goes, I ain't think about it yet. You know what's a funny thing. I kind of want to do it without so much help right now. Since I'm new to the game, I kind of want to prove myself. In an ideal world, let me prove myself. Let me allow you to become a fan of me and grow to like me. Snoop blessed me enough already. A cube blessed me enough already. Them being on my show gave me an inch. I don't got to take a mile. So I'm not going to push my luck and ask him to also be on tracks with me. That's a little... Yeah.

But here's the thing. He is doing back then what everybody does today, which is use somebody else's stardom to push yours. And he's got the three arguably biggest on the planet at the moment. That's unbelievable. That's in a good spot. Uh, 2014, he is in a skate tank, a TV special. 2014, he's also in, uh, what is this TV on the radio?

I don't know what that is. Um, stupid. 2011, or 2014, they're talking all about how the clothing of a fly society is a big deal. And yeah, he's killing it. He's got a sponsorship portfolio, too, to include hardware and apparel brands, such as venture trucks for components, gold wheels. active ride shop and footwear. And he's killing it right now. Absolutely fucking killing it.

2016, Baker Sertifried pro-Rowin Zorilla. I don't know what that means. Sertifried. That all goes through. So everything's going well for him throughout the late 2010s here. He's doing great. July 29th, 2021,

he's got some problems. And he's arrested, as a matter of fact. After he was accused of several, things, including threatening to murder police officers, which you're not allowed to do that, generally. You can't threaten that. No, this is in Oak Brook Terrace, Illinois. This all happened. Where the hell is that outside Chicago, I imagine?

Beats the fuck out of me. It all started after a law enforcement officers responded to a report of a battery at a motel on July 27th in Oak Brook Terrace, Illinois. They said Kennedy was accused of violently attacking a man at the motel, leaving the guy with a fractured skull and a concussion, and then fleeing the scene. Oh, boy. We're not sure at the moment would provoke this attack, or alleged attack,

but we were told Kennedy was eventually located and taken into custody. During the booking process, they said he became very aggressive toward the cops, and he threatened to murder police officers nine different times, which it just didn't come out. That was the thing he kept saying. Okay.

saying that Kennedy told cops, quote, I will kill one of you police. We kill police where I'm from. Oh, boy. The spokesperson said Kennedy then referenced a 2007 cop killing incident in Whittier, California, claiming the skateboarder said, we killed y'all in Whittier, California. We kicked y'all bitch ass. Okay. He was ultimately arrested and booked on multiple charges, including aggravated battery in a public place, threatening a public official, etc. He's out on bail. I guess the spokesperson said Kennedy had been out on bail due to a previous arrest earlier in this month. So he's also booked on a charge of violation of bail bond. So his bail was set at $100,000 and he was still in jail trying to figure it out. Wow.

Okay. 2021 here. Same time. That was like July 29th. Now August 3rd, 2021. He is now charged with, let's get this. Murder. What?

The man he beat and fractured his skull and concussed him. He died. Oh, fuck. By the way, this was at a comfort suite. Oh, my. Imagine getting beaten to death. At a comfort. What's worse?

A roadway in, maybe. Is that the worst? You don't want to get beat in front of a roadway in. Travel launch. That blue sign. Kicking light on you, that'd be terrible. Nobody wants that shit. So he shouldn't be anywhere near a

Humphard Sweet and Oak Brook Terrace, if he's successful like this. He beat and kicked him, I guess. He's being held without bond on first-degree murder charges after the death of Josiah Casahon, 23-year-old. They allege that Kennedy punched this guy in the head just after 11 a.m. at the motel, which is, I guess, a western Chicago suburb, causing him to fall to the ground and hit his head on the pavement. Wow. Which is bad enough. That happened to a guy I know in high school. He punched a guy, and he fell and cracked his head open on the pavement, had to fucking have surgery.

Had to have brain surgery. I had a friend that got punched in the face, back of his head, and he had a stroke. He still fucked up today. Yeah, that this, the kid who got punched, though, the kid who did the punching felt bad. And everybody to a person in school was like, that guy's a dick. Yeah. Like, when I already got punched did that, I go, it had to happen someday. Fucking you run your fucking mess.

He was this, he was one of these nerdy fuchs who would be like, oh, yeah, well, run your mouth. like that and people would be like, oh, I want to fucking strangle his fucking kid. He'd be like, I'll tell teachers. And actually kid? Finally, this kid snapped, this one dude. And it was like after, at the bus stop or something. He just walloped him right in the fucking mouth. And of course, he fell right

down and cracked his head open. And everyone went, oh, well. Yeah, my buddy went out. He got hit in the face and he went out. And when he went down, he hit his head on the driveway. And then this kid jumped on top of him and was punching him in the face and bouncing his head off the and he had a stroke like,

the next day. Well, that's the problem here. Yeah, the guy I knew that did that actually, you know, was like, holy shit when he cracked his skull open. He's like, holy fuck, call somebody. Like, he tried to help him after that, which is why he didn't get in any trouble.

Plus, we were like 14, 15 or something. But. Chauber, yeah. And even the kid's parents had to know he was a smarmy cunt that deserved a punch in the face once in a while. He was good for that one day. So this one, that's what they did.

After he hit his head on the pavement, Kennedy then started kicking him and stomping him. You can't do that. Somebody's out. That's such a bitch move. It's crazy. It's insane. That's a crazy thing to do.

This guy died of his injuries at the hospital. An autopsy found he died of blunt force injuries to the head, and they ruled the death of homicide. Wow. So they ordered Kennedy held without bail while he hires an attorney. He is fucked. Very, very fucked. Compton-ass Terry's in a lot of fucking trouble. And he's sitting in jail, not knowing what to do.

And he's like, this is much different. This is much different than my normal cushy surroundings. You know? It feels a little bit better than that comfort, though. Yeah, damn, I don't get cool shoes in here. This is bad. Yeah, this is. He needs to change his life and change everything, damn it.

And there is only one person that can help him with this. Oh, boy. One person. And they're going to start with the outside. They're going to start with his surroundings. Dexter Manley, interior designer from New York City. And he says, how is it you've come to arrive here? I mean, seriously, oh my God.

Wait, let me get this straight. Now, I heard you skateboard it up. So there's a little skateboard there. Wee, we, and you're kicking your little feet there. And you pull up and you're at a comfort. What is the comfort suite? What is that even? It's a comfort.

It's not comfortable. You go to a comfort suite in the suburbs. like you sir are white trash. I'm sorry. Everything I've just described is white trash behavior. The comfort sweets, the skateboarding, the kicking a man's head while he's down. This is all ridiculous. Yeah, I know Vince.

Yes, I know that's your kind of. Vince McMahon loves you. He said, oh my God, he's got the, he's got it. The killer instinct. I said, Vince get back. Let me in there. No, Vince, Vince, you're not going to name a dildo after him. I want to have a threesome with him.

See if he can. Look, an Eiffel Tower, one of my secretary. Vince, no. He's been, he's having, Terry, no, don't go. You two together too much. Oh my God, it'll be exploding. We can't have it. I'll stop now.

Poof. And in a poof of feathers and boas, he's gone. And Terry's shit in my secretary's mouth. I want you to shit in her mouth. Get down there and shit in her mouth. Come on. I want to look why you're doing it. Come on.

Free your shit and fuck her with it. Oh, yeah. Freeze it. Come on. Put it in my office for a easy. God, he's such a disgusting man. August 9th, 2021, prosecutors say he was enraged for no apparent reason before the alleged murder. Really?

They said that they believe he became enraged for no apparent reason. They don't understand it here. They say 11.05 a.m., which is not a murder time usually. No. Kennedy, his ex-girlfriend, and this man, all three of them, together. this is not a stranger that he met and checked out of the comfort suites motel in Oak Brook

and began walking toward Kennedy's ex's car. This is getting even more white trash, Jesus Christ. But while on the walk, Kennedy got really upset for no apparent reason, apparently, according to the girlfriend. They say that the guy he killed tried to calm

him down, but that's when Kennedy got mad at him and punched him in the face. They're trying to calm him down, causing him to fall to the ground, striking his head on the pavement, and then he kicked him in the torso before leaving the area in his ex's car. Wow. He died four days later. Oh, Jesus.

Wow. Fought for his life for four days? Fuck, that is brutal, man. August 23rd, 2021. This is Baker Skateboards Pro Dustin Dallin gives condolences to fellow skateboarder Josiah Cassahan. I guess he was a skater. I didn't even know that. Dahlin also states that he's saddened to watch Terry's slow and horrible mental breakdown.

He says, this is on Instagram, my heart and soul goes out to Josiah Casahan family and friends. I'm so sadden to watch Terry's slow and horrible mental breakdown. I and all of us tried so hard to help and support him. All I want now is for this to be a fair and dangerous warning. Please, please, please try to find your friends some kind of help if you see they're falling into complete and utter mental breakdown before they do harm to themselves or others. Again, my heart goes out to Josiah and all. We love Terry and it's fucked up and it's fucked, but mental disorders are fucking fucked. They are fucking fucked. Yeah. Help your friends before they hurt themselves or others. To all.

Hey, any haters with negative comments, go fuck yourselves. This is serious shit. Don't post or be prepared to be destroyed. My heart is broken along with so many people's lives. This is serious. posers go to sleep. Posers. There you go. There it is. Which I've been really petitioning to bring that word back for so many different. Posers a great word.

It's a great word. It's not used enough, really. As skaters, we took it and really made it perfect. It a great word. And then everybody's, no one's using it. So I guess they said that Kedony and Dallin were former teammates and close friends. And there you go. Now, December 8th, 2022, we find out a little bit more about what's going on here.

All right. Yeah. He is apparently, by the way, during the trial, I guess, the prosecution said, punched him in the head in the parking lot. He fell, he kicked him. His injuries, by the way, fractured skull, broken orbital bone, bleeding on the brain. I guess the three of them stayed in the hotel the night. night before. In the morning, the girlfriend was supposed to drive Kennedy to the airport to fly home. She said that she changed her mind, believing she was unfit to drive safely after drinking

the night before and possibly in the morning. When she and Kennedy argued, that's when Josiah told Kennedy to calm down and they got out of the car. Kennedy then punched him. The dumbest argument. This is so stupid. Kennedy's lawyers argued that to be convicted of murder, prosecutors have to prove that Kennedy knew beforehand that by throwing a single punch created a strong possibility of causing death or great bodily harm. He is found not guilty of murder. Wow. He's acquitted of murder, but found guilty of two counts of aggravated battery.

So that's all intent, which aggravated battery is light, but that's all intent-based, is what that is. Aggravated battery, though. Yeah. I guess the kicking would be the aggravator. Yeah, and when he's unconscious and he knows it, like continuing to kick and punch him. Absolutely. So he ends up getting here, I guess they were drinking the night before, which doesn't help at all. They said that during the trial, by the way, his ex-girlfriend said that she wasn't sure about the kicking now that she's here on the stand.

for the issue is pretty sure about the kicking. So he's going to plead guilty also to one count of threatening a public official. And he is sentenced to you, sir, may fuck off five years in prison. Five years. I think it's five on the battery and five on the threatening the official charge. But I think they're going to be concurrent. He must serve at least 50% of each sentence before being eligible for parole. He received credit for more than a year and a half.

he spent in jail awaiting the sentencing. Josiah's life is worth five years. Five. No, shit, not even. Yeah, five years. That's it. Same as saying, we killed y'all and wittier. That's the same crime.

Yeah. Apparently. Isn't that crazy? Wow. He's got a nice mug shot here where he doesn't look too happy about it. So, yeah, he's received two charges, one pertaining to aggravated battery, resulting in great bodily harm with five years and threatening a public. official. So he was had a projected release date of July 8th, 2026, but that would be, he could be

paroled sooner than that. January 14th, 2024, he says he might convert to Islam. Okay. What the fuck? Why not? Which in jail is not a bad move. No, you'll get better food. You get better food and they're a group nobody fucks with. They're very, they stay in a fucking group and nobody fucks with them. They leave everybody, everybody gets a away from those guys. So, yep, he says that that's what he's going to do. He's at the Southwestern Correctional Center in Illinois, serving his two sentences. He was transferred to the Southwestern Correctional Center from the Robinson Correctional Center in January 10th of 2024. New mugshot where he's got a blank expression. He's got the Muslim hat there.

The cap? Yeah, the Kofi, Kaffee. Is it Kofi? Cofi, coffee? Yeah, I can't remember how you say that. But yeah, it's often, yeah, he's wearing that. He's wearing the Syed from Oz. Yeah, he's wearing the Ata B.C. Yeah.

Atabisi, no, he had a little. Didn't he have one? No, for a minute, he fucked. Remember he had that little beanie cap that somehow stayed on his head? Syed always has a good hat. He is, the little beanie cap, yeah. So he said with support of his newfound faith, he could return to skating the streets as a changed man.

And he says he can impart valuable teachings of spirituality just like skate legend and other crime in sports alumni Christian Assoi. See, none of the other skaters have to find religion because they're not in prison. They're just outskating. So it's fine. But once you get, you know, you go to prison for some dumb shit. All of a sudden you got shit going on. So he's a mess, obviously. Oh, that's terrible.

I mean, I don't mean the conversion. I just mean in general. He's a fucking mess. Things are not going well for him. Somebody's dead. Somebody's dead. This is a guy who was hanging out with, you know, Snoop and famous people 20 years ago.

Dad's Dillinger corrupt. Yeah. You almost feel bad for him. Almost. But not nearly as bad as I feel. For Terry Kennedy, full force plumbing, plumbing master plumber.

Terry Kennedy, owner at Kennedy Law Group in River Forest, Illinois. And finally, Terry Edward Kennedy, former longtime Major League Baseball player, who was in the league for 15 years, I got to say, four-time All-Star, Padres, Orioles, Giants. Pretty good catcher here.

Yeah, there you go. So you don't want to be him. March 21st, 2025, Terry Kennedy to be released sooner than expected. What? He looks surprised on his bugshot. Even he looked shocked. He's like, damn, I'm getting out already, motherfucker? Wow.

Yeah, I guess he was supposed to get out in July of 2026, but now it's September, his full discharge date is September 1st, 2026th. He's going to get updated parole date February 27, 26th here. So now he says he's all about being religious and being in good spirits and maintaining a positive outlook. and, you know, he said he's just, this has changed his whole life in a better direction. He said, yeah, he's ready to take a new direction. November 30th, 2025, I guess he appears in something that must have been filmed years before. April and Phil Margera's ultimate house tour. Oh, that's Bam's parents.

Yeah, yeah. Oh, Phil's been long dead, so that was filmed a while ago. A long time before that, yeah. January 5th, 2026, he is free. What? He was let out apparently on New Year's Eve. Wow. In 2025 into 26.

He's out on parole just over three years after he was convicted of killing a guy. So, yeah, they said that Compton asked Terry was eligible for parole and set to be released on New Year's Eve. And he did. He was released on New Year's Eve. Look at him. Oh. Yeah. Phil is not dead, James.

he is six he's only 69 years old wow that guy's alive you can live and he's only 69 that's crazy wow that means he was in his 40s when i was watching that shit god damn by the way his prison intake stuff has a list of his tattoos oh um yeah in loving memory with a portrait uh praying hands a dollar sign a skull tk uh lb on his right hand uh sarah phyllis and jaden and on his neck across a skateboard of diamond. You got a skateboard tattooed on his neck? Just in case so you don't see you know. Okay, so that's New Year's Eve 2025 going into 26.

July 24th, 26, Terry is arrested again. Just last month? Just last month for good Lord, for allegedly assaulting his pregnant girlfriend. Terrible. Terry, Terry, Compton asked Terry. He is in so much trouble. What the fuck are you doing? He was arrested for assault.

The cops say his pregnant girlfriend told them he punched her in the head. Haven't you learned not to punch people in the fucking head, Terry? Haven't you learned that your fists are murderous that are dangerous? Oh, my God. Jesus Christ. So he's arrested for two assault charges plus a parole viola. This was in Denver. The punching incident happened now.

He was living in Denver? I don't know if he was living there, but that's where it happened. Police say they responded to a call just before 10 p.m. on July 13th. And when they arrived, they spoke with Sean Tice, Nat Jackson, who they say has been in a relationship with Terry with Terry for six months and is three months pregnant. Wow. Very good plan there. This man is just shooting up the club, James? Shooting up the club.

They've been together since he got. out of the joint. Yeah. He's shooting up the club like nobody's business, and three months in, he's got a kid with her. Who does he think he is? Does he think he's on love after lockup? I don't know.

This is not like, you know, Syed behavior. No, this is very Julius behavior. This is at a Bisi behavior. This is bad. Wow. Yeah, apparently officers say they observed a smaller-sized cut on the middle of her forehead and a larger cut to the bottom left side of her head. Cops say that the girlfriend told them Terry was stressed out about business deals when he

allegedly punched her. Wow. They say that she also claimed he pushed her while she was trying to run for the door, causing her to fall and hit her head on the door handle. Lovely. They say she told them she got up and ran to the bathroom, messaging her neighbor to call the police. Right. Cops say that paramedics who responded to the scene noted that she had an injury to the back

of her head that might require stitches. They cops say they asked Terry about the incident. He denied having any kind of altercation with her at all. He said, I don't know what you're talking about. Not sure. Wow. And zero altercation. That's it.

They said, yeah. And I guess he was working for third eye recordings or something. The management company that reps him. And they said, we're aware of the situation with Terry Kennedy and are investigating it. but we want to pray for TK and his family members. We also want to make it abundantly clear that we do not condone domestic violence of any kind. So it looks like he's still in police custody

because Bond was only allowed on the two charges, not the parole violation. That's a whole other hearing he's got to go to because he was in there for something pretty fucking serious. So there you go. There's Terry Kennedy. You can see him skating by maybe somewhere if he ever gets out.

I wouldn't piss him off. I hope he doesn't listen to this. I'm so sorry, I called you an asshole, Terry. I said anything terrible about you. Sorry, T-Ked. Your hands are dangerous, and I know. They say that he's got net worth. This is Celebritynetworth.com, so who knows?

They say he has a net worth of $4 million. I bet he has a net worth of $4. Yeah. Oh, it's possible, though, that he went to jail and kept all his investments going and just had people managing it. He did explain how you get rich. He was very good at it. All very possible. So can't get enough of Compton Ass Terry, everybody.

Well, you can go ahead and get a pair of Terry's Compton Ass shoes. These are supra shoes. Terry Kennedy, size 10, black with box. They are used. Oh, there he is. They're his model. Not his that he wore. They're his signature model there.

They're really high tops, man. Like some of the vision ones from the early 90s that look like they had like the normal high top, then an extra panel on it with an extra thing of fucking, which is ankle support, just depends on skater has a bad ankle or not. And then also you can get, and those are $180. God
