UPDATE: Jereme Rogers Confronts Nyjah Huston With Roses on the Street
UPDATE 9.1.18: The latest plot twist in the Jereme Rogers and Nyjah Huston saga is the below paparazzi moment. Nyjah does not look amused. It’s hard to call where this feud will ultimately go. But there’s no arguing its entertainment value. It’s likely that this latest incident was just a publicity stunt for Jereme’s new NSFW music video that he alluded to during his No Jumper interview. It also released today, and comes with an offensive content warning on YouTube. Clearly, Jereme is not only a master showman, but also a bit more calculated than he’s given credit for.

UPDATE 8.4.18: Apparently this beef runs deeper than we initially anticipated. Jereme Rogers took to Instagram again last night to issue a “Myathalon” challenge to Nyjah Huston. The proposed event will consist of a game of S.K.A.T.E., a battle of insults, and a boxing match! Have a look at Jereme’s latest post below. And keep scrolling down to see our original post from Tuesday in which Jereme tells the story of what started this interesting turn of events.

Watch ‘TUANY’ Skate Video Featuring Sebastien Cao and Theo Meas
Watch Sebastien Cao and Theo Meas as they shred in the streets of South America.
The video was filmed during three months of backpacking from Mexico to Costa Rica, crossing Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, and Nicaragua.
Making it even more impressive (and a reason needs to come calling), “TUANY” was entirely filmed, edited, and animated using an iPhone with Theo and Sebastien doing the editing themselves (and some of the filming too).
