Thabiti. Truth Be Cold. KxNG.

KxNG. Emcee. Visonary. Culture Cultivator.

Thabiti also known as “Truth Be Cold”, is the founder of a popular urban lifestyle brand “KxNG”, whose message encourages the brands motto of  “There is no you or I in KxNG or QxEEN only the collective“. The Morehouse graduate is well known for his relevance as an emcee in the Atlanta Hip Hop circuit and seems to be gunning hard for his place in the fashion and apparel industry.

I had the opportunity to talk with the KxNG apparel founder while passing through the Castleberry Hill District in Atlanta a while back. Thabiti is the true definition of ‘getting it out the mud” in my personal opinion. He has built a thriving brand from the ground up with his good friend and business partner Nkosane. Through dedication, hard work and tenacity “KxNG and QxEEN” apparel has grown from a must have T-Shirt line to a highly anticipated Urban Lifestyle Brand.  These cultivators are not only growing a brand- these gentlemen can be found curating events, making music and running businesses. 

Hear more from the Houston native in a short sit down we shared while kool’n at Dripping Star last spring.  The kool 16 paired with the jewels shared are pieces of knowledge we can all benefit from on our quest to create and leave our individual legacies. My camera/audio activity was a bit of a struggle so beast through the audio issues as best you can as everything shared is worth the listen.
