JENKEM MIX 141: MEGAN BALTIMORE

Have you ever wondered where the term Girlboss comes from? Sure, there are books, a Netflix show, an entire educational course, and 27.5 million posts under the hashtag, but do you know the original? Her name is Megan Baltimore, idiot.

Megan’s importance to the creation of skateboarding mainstay Girl Skateboards cannot be understated. She’s helped steer the ship since the band at World Industries broke up, often occupying the captain’s chair over Mount Rushmore-esque icons Mike Carroll, Rick Howard, and Spike Jonze.

Her contributions to skateboarding at large may never be grasped by the uneducated skater, but IYKYK. Megan was kind enough to curate our latest mix, offering a look into the music that keeps her head above water when the corpo-speak “male-dominated” or jenk-speak “cock-fest” of an industry gets too hectic.

Download the mix HERE, and join us in appreciating skateboardings #1 girlboss.

Personally, we can’t wait until he hits his indie phase. If there’s one thing we know, that first break up always sends a man into the depths of The Cure.

JENKEM MIX 103: JUSTIN HENRY
Since everyone seems so into what this guy is all about, we figured he'd be a perfect choice to put together a mix for y'all.

JENKEM MIX 145: RAT RATZ
This mix may not bring the guarantee of sliding back tails even half as long as this crew, but it does bring the guarantee of blowing out your speaker setup.
