BANG! @southernvangard #radio presents #TheAre #interview session! We head to Houston this week and have quite an in-depth interview with The Are of the almighty K-otix. The pedigree here speaks for itself - it’s no wonder his resume is what it is. After we get the lowdown on the new K-otic LP, we kick things off by going to the some of The Are’s early musical influences, like his uncle who played base for Archie Bell & the Drells, a chance meeting with DJ Premier and meeting DJ Cash Money while working at one of Houston’s premier vinyl spots back in the day. Of course we get the origins of K-otix story, his decision to make a break from the group and his eventual return. The Are was a member of the Trackmasters, you say? THAT Trackmasters…like Poke & Tone Trackmasters?! Yeah, we got that story too. All this and more is waiting inside, so don’t delay! While you’re listening, go pick up the new, ultra-limited K-otix LP “Legendary, which is produced entirely by The Are - there’s only 300 copies, folks, and they’ve already peeled through half of them!
