Here's what Skullcandy said about the new partnership:
With teams in surf, skate, snow and several other action sports, it only made sense to broaden the Skullcandy Family to cover the NBA’s superstars, further cementing the bond between music and athletes.
Skullcandy will be actively supporting charity events with each Crew member and will have exclusive access to behind the scenes action starring our NBA crew. Whether it’s taking over the Skullcandy Twitter account, hanging backstage at concerts, or dropping beats with the Roc Nation family, the Skullcandy Crew will give you the courtside view into the life of some real ballers.NBA signature headphones will also drop sometime this year along with the Crew rocking the latest Skullcandy gear.
I think this is a dope partnership and a great come up for these guys. But, I can't help but think how ironic it is that David Stern attempted to clean up the hip hop image of the players by enforcing a dress code; but then partners with Skullcandy and RocNation. I honestly think both decisions were the right decisions, but I couldn't ignore my observation. Can't knock the hustle.
