    Our Generation Music presents an interview with one of our favorite generational leaders in skateboarding stepping into a budding career in music, Na-Kel Smith. From being a member of Odd Future to gracing the big screen in Jonah Hill’s Mid90s, Na-Kel has proved to impact in every way with his efforts receiving critical acclaim across the board. Taking his professional skateboarding career alongside building his momentum in music, Na-Kel Details the major moments across his careers inspiring all his movements. The LA Native speaks on traveling the world through his skateboarding garnering a Supreme sponsorship and now finding his rhythm in music. With a legendary friend group consisting of the likes of Frank Ocean & Earl Sweatshirt, Na-Kel reveals this air of humility and true commitment on putting his best foot forward first rather than relying on others. Aiming to prove you can have big dreams across multiple career paths and accomplish them, Na-Kel leads by example focusing on the positive and mastering his skills in order to catapult his music into the same realm of appeal of his skateboarding accolades and on-camera success. Na-Kel Smith leaves Our Generation Music with an uplifting message.
