illRoots x Ibn Jasper | Profile (Video)

Dubbed as one of the most talented and free spirited creatives on the scene today, large in part thanks to the backing of good friend Kanye West, Ibn Jasper immolates a lifestyle that most can’t help but be attracted to. From fashion to skateboarding to bike riding to his more highly known talents as a barber, or merely the overall effect of how he lives day to day life, Ibn is a rare positive influence amidst an array of negative entities in this world.
Ill Roots had the opportunity to subject him as a part of their Profile feature, in which they were warranted intimate face time with the Chicago native. Following Ibn around some of his favorite LA hot spots, he explains how he basically “fell into” cutting hair, due to himself being his initial test dummy. Also big into the streetwear scene, he leads the Ill Roots crew to The Hundreds shop and one of his favorites, Diamond Supply Co. And you heard it from Mr. Jasper himself, drop the weights and hit the skatepark.
