Spotted (once again): Mac Miller x Coke Boys

Check out Bad Boy signing French Montana & the kid Mac Miller chillin’ in the tour-bus recording “Smoke & Drank”. To make sure that they can convincingly bring across what the title of the track is all about, they obviously spark a leaf and drink on something purple. Mac’s advice: “I don’t suggest this to my young fans… Let us do the rapper shit and y’all stay in school and get good grades…”. Word.

Good looking out, Mac: after our Love Is For After The Game and What’s The Scenario tee, our MTP hoody and Oak Car Wash jacket we are happy to see that you like the K1X Hustle tee as well.

THE SIDELINE STORY

Now that’s big time! It was around Christmas last year when we spotted J. Cole rocking our K1X MTP Zipper Hoody in Paris. Now we found out that he was also shooting a video for the title track of his album “The Sideline Story” at that time. Seems as if he likes our hoody, so he didn’t change. Again – good looking out, Jermaine.

Besides our K1X MTP Zipper Hoody, J. Cole is wearing our What’s The Scenario Tee and our MTP Leatherman Jacket.

Spotted: Kurtis Blow

troj — Wed, 14 Mar 2012 15:57:21 +0000

The hip hop legend who gave us “The Breaks” dropped by our headquarters yesterday. We’ve been friendly with Kurtis for a couple of years now and it’s always great to catch up with him whenever he’s in the area. Highlight of his visit was probably when he walked into the design department (no heads-up) and dropped a couple freestyle verses. Catch him on the K1X Tracks Radio Show real soon…
