Monumental

Check out this trailer of a Soul Brother #1 and Cocoa Bs studio session, the making of “That’s Hard”. The track features Styles P and Sean Price plus the title says it all. The long play version “Monumental” by Pete Rock and Smif-N-Wessun is due out June 28th on Duck Down.

Pete Rock picked up his K1X fitted hat when he played a show out in Munich in March last year. Good to see that it got involved in his creative process.

Beats, Rhymes & Life

Michael Rapaport is definitely one of the coolest Hollywood cats of all. Maybe, because he’s not so Hollywood. The NY actor has played legendary roles (anyone remember “True Romance”?) and has always promoted basketball and hip hop off-screen. His current documentary film project focuses on one of the greatest hip hop bands ever: A Tribe Called Quest. “Beats, Rhymes & Life” recently premiered at the Tribecca Film Festival and will be launched to the general public later this year. So will a special edition ATCQ tribute t-shirt by K1X…
