TAWKs is a series unique to TheAlleyKatWay that is dedicated to exploring creative minds and influencers in music, fashion, and culture. A play on the word “talks”, TAWKs is all about the act of conversation and the exchange of dope ideas.

For the inaugural episode, I caught up with Charlotte-based rapper and artist NiGE HOOD who has been blazing trails with his unique brand of music which he calls “Folk Rap”. A personal friend of mine, NiGE was the first person I interviewed when I began blogging in 2013.
In Part 1 of this two-part interview, NiGE takes us through his closet showing off some of his favorite pieces, sick collection of coats and boots, and introduces us to his “formal yet thrifty” style.
