New Boyz Set Date for Skinny Jeanz & A Mic

new-boyzKnown for the teen-anthem “You’re A Jerk,” Los Angeles, California based rap duo New Boyz (Legacy & Ben J) are scheduled to release their 13-track debut album Skinny Jeanz & A Mic on September 15, 2009 via Asylum/Warner Bros. Records.

The popularity of “You’re A Jerk,” which is supported by a “jerkin’” dance, has catapulted the 17-year old teenagers from Myspace notoriety to national exposure.

The record has also inspired a movement amongst the teenage demographic. Variations of the dance have been recorded and uploaded by fans to the web.

“The Jerk community is a viral community, garnering over 50 million views without advertising,” says Shariff Hassan, co-producer of the Skinny Jeans: The Movement documentary series.  “And because of technology, this movement also marks the first time that youth culture has an international audience instantly.”

“People think we only do jerk music, but we do a whole lot of everything,” says Legacy. “The album’s about the typical teenage life.”
