BANG! @southernvangard #radio presents the CMNY interview session! Carlos Maldonado is the founder, creator & owner of Classic Material New York, a boutique clothing company that began in 2010, largely due to what Carlos saw as an massive under-representation of New York-centric hip-hop fashion. Thanks to friend-of-Southern Vangard, P. Watts of Raw Wattage, we connected with Carlos to talk about the history behind the brand, what drew him to hip-hop fashion early on and the shenanigans you found yourself in the middle of growing up as a youngster trying to stay fresh. Carlos also discuss his expansion into other mediums in 2019, podcasting & cooking. His podcast “Book of Rhymes” debuted earlier this year and is hosted by none other than Donwill of Tanya Morgan fame. His upcoming cooking show “Eat With Me”, is launching very soon and will feature chef Lil’ BBQ - the first episode will be with the legendary Ralph McDaniels of Video Music Box! Ok, we’ve told you enough, there’s a lot of goodness inside - so go ahead and press play, cop some fresh gear at classicmaterialny.com while you’re listening and remember it’s always that #SmithsonianGrade #TwiceAWeek #WeAreTheGard // southernvangard.com // @southernvangard on #applepodcasts #stitcherradio #soundcloud #mixcloud #youtube // #hiphop #rap #undergroundhiphop #boombap #DJ #mix #interview #podcast #ATL #WORLDWIDE #RIPCOMBATJACK Recorded live May 13, 2019 @ Dirty Blanket Studios, Marietta, GA southernvangard.com @southernvangard on #applepodcasts #soundcloud #youtube #spotifypodcast #googlepodcasts #stitcherradio #mixcloud #SmithsonianGrade #TwiceAWeek #WeAreTheGard twitter/IG: @southernvangard @jondoeatl @cappuccinomeeks
