DC Shoes’s teaming up with artist Tyla Yaweh for this chapter in Push Your Own Story series—where they spotlight the artists, creators, skaters and all-around badass people who inspire them on a daily basis.

At just 26, he has already worked with some of the biggest artists on the planet (from Post Malone to Travis Barker) and he’s just getting started. DC Shoes chatted with Tyla about his love for skateboarding and music, his plans for the future, and his new single ‘Hands Up’.
