Barbee not Barbie
November 19, 2008 by ListenThinkReact
What happened to Ray Barbee? The one time skate phenom has, in my opinion, put out some exceptional albums in the past, but seems to be on an extended hiatus.
As one of the first African-American pro skaters, Barbee was undoubtedly one of the best and most fluid street skaters in the late 80’s/early 90’s.
Now he has flawlessly transitioned into a professional musician and his creative ways once again continue to shine.
Check out a few of my favorite tracks from his two releases, Triumphant Procession and In Full View.
