GOOD INTERVIEW AND EXCLUSIVE ONE ALSO..GREAT WORK ON LETTING EVERYONE WHO DIDNT KNOW WHO WHO IS..KNOW AND UNDERSTAND WHAT HE IS AND ABOUT…
Sure you can check all the sites on the net and we encourage that, but damn… to get a interview like this is definitely a very nice touch. Ben, definitely show mad respect! You are right without NT most people wouldn’t have had that avenue to get in the spotlight or get to where they were meant to be. Bein 23, I remember seeing K-town shut down threads when I was younger. It was crazy! G-roc definitely on the right track and you always got my support family! Keep making TSG everything you can, I know you work hard!
NOW THIS INTERVIEW WAS A GOOD LOOK FOR THESHOEGAME. PEOPLE THAT READ THESHOEGAME SHOULD KNOW ABOUT K-TOWN’S SNEAKER FAME. I REMEMBER SEEING HIS AUCTIONS ON EBAY AND KNEW I COULDN’T AFFORD THE COLLECTION BUT PLACED A BID ANYWAYS. IT’S GREAT TO SEE HIM OFF DOING BIGGER AND BETTER THINGS. MAD PROPS G-ROC FOR MANAGING TO GET THIS INTERVIEW AND I HAVE NOTHING BUT RESPECT FOR K-TEEZY.

“Keep bangin em out!” (pause) lol

Wayyyy before I was even thinking about getting a website, I was rocking on eBay. Until this day I’m NOT a Niketalk member, I’ve always just lurked around. I came across K-Town’s auction back in ‘03 (I think) and since then I knew dude was official. I thought it would dope for TSGers and the lurkers to hear his story.
.
More dopeness on the way. TRUST!
Fire interview G-Roc. Im lovin how humble duke is. It takes a man to pay homage to another. Big ups to DJ Clarke Kent. Brooklyn baby!!! Lol..
