Description

This week I am joined by Anik Kahn, we talk about how we met. How he got into music and the significance behind his latest release. Also we talk about his history with sneakers and fashion. How growing up in Astoria, Queens changed his life. The work he put into reclaiming his name, and how family has always had a huge impact on him. The places he has been to and the different cultures he's been able to experience. Plus much much more.
