YungSurfGod - DIY

Multimedia artist, fashion designer and all-around entertainer releases bevvy of new products 

LOS ANGELES, CA – Tevin Charles is a go-getter in every sense of the word, and he’s extremely grateful for the success that has come to him as a result of that hard work. He’s an East Coast artist with a West Coast vibe, and he’s got big prospects on the horizon. The successful entrepreneur mentors teenagers in his hometown of Cambridge while also running a successful clothing brand. He coaches basketball while also making music videos and short-films. He inspires other artists while undertaking a variety of business and creative endeavors. He is, at his core, a bona fide artist. And his standout feature – his signature style, if you will – is vibrancy. From his poppin new “Big Wave” hoodies, to his flashy videography, to the upbeat and catchy tunes, he makes major waves with his vibrant forms of art. 

“Big Waves inspires artists who are also athletes,” he said. “It’s a place for artists and athletes to be whole – to be themselves without judgment toward their creative waves. Don’t be somebody who is riding someone else’s wave. Whatever you see in your mind as doing, it’s all possible and it’s all there. You just have to be the one to create it.” 

Operating under the stage name YungSurfGod, this budding international superstar has recently released two new singles while also launching his latest clothing line of hoodies and other Big Waves merchandise. Launched in 2019, the Big Wave brand has grown exponentially and is now sold in places all around the world. In addition to the new hoodies, the clothing line features T-shirts, basketball shorts, and a variety of other clothing items. 

 

Along the way, YungSurfGod has created singles that he knows will cater to a global audience. With “Do It Yourself” and “My Mental,” he offers two new tracks that showcase his one-of-a-kind style.  

“My music is very personal to me,” he said. “When people hear it, they’ll know why people say I’m a very vibrant person. I have a lot of self-love and self-appreciation, and I try to incorporate that into my music. I want my music to promote being able to do things yourself. Whatever it is, just do it and live within it and have fun with it.” 

“Do It Yourself” is a song inspired by artists who don’t put in the effort to market their products and expect the world to be handed to them on a silver platter. YungSurfGod said the song claps back at laziness and serves as a kind of motivational message to other budding entrepreneurs to put in the work and “Do It Yourself.” Eventually, he hopes to be able to return to live shows as he said it’s his chill family vibe in front of a crowd that really makes for some of the best entertainment – almost as if he and the audience have been friends for years.  

“My shows are an escape from reality and take audiences on an entertaining journey,” he said. “My messages radiate positivity and empowerment, and it’s connecting with a lot of people.” 

YungSurfGod said he has a new clothing line potentially dropping in late 2021 or early 2022 that fans of his other brands should watch out for.
