- Released on December 12, 2012, Parental Advisory is the first full-length video from the skateboard brand DGK which is short for Dirty Ghetto Kids. The video follows the DGK team and a group of mischievous young skaters as they make their way through one of the most dirty ghetto days imaginable. Filled with twist and turns, celebrity cameos, and amazing skateboarding; Parental Advisory not only showcases the DGK crew and lifestyle, but also gives a glimpse into what goes on inside the mind of a real dirty ghetto kid.
The video features skate parts from Stevie Williams, Josh Kalis, Marcus McBride, Jack Curtin, Rodrigo TX, Lenny Rivas, Wade Desarmo, Keelan Dadd, Marquise Henry, Derrick Wilson, Dwayne Fagundes, and Dane Vaughn. The narrative portion of the video stars Steven Fernandez and features cameos from famous rappers including DMX, Beanie Siegel, and Lil' Wayne as well as skateboard icons including Kareem Campbell, Salman Agah, and Fabian Alomar. The film sections of the video were written and directed by Randal Kirk and the skateboarding sequences were filmed and edited by Brad Rosado.
Parental Advisory was set in motion in 2008 when videographer Brad Rosado was hired to travel the world with the DGK team and work on the video project. In 2012 as the video approached completion it was obvious that Parental Advisory was going to be something special. As a result, it was decided to take the production to the next level by hiring Randal Kirk to develop and direct a narrative portion of the video that would bring DGK's aesthetic to the classic skate video genre that had been established by the great videos of the past. The result is an epic skateboarding film with a ghetto twist which has been described as the skate video version of cult classic films including Belly, Kids, and State Property.
Parental advisory was premiered on December 11, 2012 at the Avalon in Hollywood, CA to a packed crowd of professional skateboarders, industry people, and celebrities. The night which featured performances by rappers Trinidad James and Juicy J was nothing short of amazing. The response to Parental Advisory was phenomenal making it one of the top skateboarding film releases in 2012.
