Deandre “Lil Dre” Thebpanya has been on our radar for a while now, and I can only hope you’ll say the same. The dude has been steadily building a name for himself through years of ripping in random edits, homie videos, and adidas projects alike, but his new part For Drew feels different. It’s not just good—it’s powerful. Might be time to remove the “Lil” from his name! This one hits super hard. Take a look:
From the start, you can tell Dre (yeah, I’m just gonna start saying it) wanted to put out something that really mattered. And I love how the first few minutes are all basically just an intro. He coulda ended it there! But by the time you hit the 2:23 mark, things start getting extra buck, and it only picks from there.

He has that rare mix of pop, power and precision—three words that get tossed around in skateboarding a lot (and I’m personally guilty for some of that)—but he also has a deep bag of tricks and tons of creativity.
That back smith on the up-ledge to alley-oop 180 into the bank? Perfect trick for that spot, but admittedly, not something I expected to see from him. I love that.
I don’t know. It just seems like he’s stepping into a new chapter in his career, and it’s really inspiring to see. This part was super pure. So do yourself a favor and just press play. Watch the whole thing. Pause and rewatch all your favorite clips. And let’s all give it up to this hungry up-and-comer. If you ask me, the future is as bright as ever.
