Breaking Atoms: The Hip Hop Podcast

Royal Flush is one of our favourites; our listeners know this to be true. Last month, news broke that Royal Flush had been diagnosed with Stage 3 cancer. With that said, we wanted to make our love for Royal Flush even more known and do what we could to raise awareness about his situation and what we could do to help. The family of Royal Flush are asking for our support during this challenging time. Your donations will go directly towards Royal Flush's medical bills, ongoing treatments and other essential expenses. Click here to donate. Now go and play Ghetto Millionaire... LOUD!Connect with Breaking AtomsInstagramFacebookFollow SumitInstagramTwitter Follow ChrisInstagramTwitter

We're back with another episode, and this week, we're not speaking to a Rapper, DJ or Producer. We're branching out a little and speaking with an official fashionista and fly thread connoisseur in general. Franklin Boateng, aka The King of Trainers, joins us to share his Hip Hop origin story and shares memories of spending summers in Brooklyn, getting the latest mixtapes and even pulls out old copies of The Source magazine. He also gets into the dotted line deliverables and shares details about his partnerships with JD Sports, Ellesse and Avirex. It's about more than looking fresh with this one, though. Franklin also gets reflective about the social currency of trainers, why they've become a Hip Hop uniform and what lengths people go to cop the latest wares. Franklin is also the first guest to shout out Shaquille O'Neal and give him props.Connect with Breaking AtomsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/breaktheatomsFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/breaktheatomsFollow SumitInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/hiphopchronicleTwitter: https://www.twitter.com/hiphopchronicle Follow ChrisInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/iamkinetikTwitter: https://www.twitter.com/iamkinetik
