Whilst strolling down 5th Avenue, expectant shoppers might encounter the timeless wares of some of Europe’s finest brands. K1X hails from Europe, and, last time I checked, could be described as ridiculously “fine”, so perhaps it’s fitting that our favorite German brand recently dropped their 5th Avenue Pack. Read More »

I just got the word from an inside source that Corey “Homicide” Williams’ contract with K1X has expired, and he is now a free agent on the prowl. The Bronx representative is currently playing in the NBL down in Australia and is fifth in the league in scoring and ninth in rebounding.
“I have nothing against K1X, and I thank them for putting me on the map. I really appreciate what they have done for me,” Williams said.
Who will be the next sneaker company to pick up on the man who was once called the EBC’s most dangerous player?
What happens to K1X from here on out? You can’t market a bunch of dunkers forever. I can’t imagine anyone wearing a pair of T Dub’s. Maybe it’s time to shell out a shoe for Ryan “Special FX” Williams. He does deserve it with the performance he put on this summer.
This blooper tape comes courtesy of Team Flight Brothers whilst down in Florida promoting K1X during the summer of ‘08. Elevator and Special FX acted a fool all week. Beat is hot too!
LOWER MANHATTAN CLASSIC championship game from SpaceBall Mag TV on Vimeo. Big shot out to Spaceballmag.Net Here's a cool clip of the LMC championship game which was crazy from start to finish. Both teams played hard but at the end Uninvited Guest was crowned king, if you want a copy of the Game go bribe The Don and Shermanator at Inside Streetball. The Uninvited Guest team feature is coming next week, if you want a recap on the game make sure you check out Space Ball blog at http://blog.spaceballmag.net/, they got some cool stuff in there.

K1x aligned with four iconic graphic artists (and one media house) for the launch of their “4-E” Collection, a unique take on the game’s most indispensible ingredient: the pill. German designer “Marok” reinterpreted the rock to match up with water, Earth’s most ubiquitous element. A glistening powder blue surface is complimented with two multicolored panels and Kay 1’s cursive logo.
Legendary NYC graff-man “Stay High 149” and creative firm Frank 151 collaborated to create the “Air” Ball. 149’s idyllic tag embellishes the b-ball’s pebbled white exterior. His government name, Wayne Roberts, is penned in black on one of the panels.
Hit the jump for video interviews with both artists!

Me and Former Chicago Bull Bj Armstrong at the Sprite Slam Dunk Show Down.
2009 was the worst year for streetball hands down and it’s all of our faults including mine! We let these corporate guys come down to our level and destroy something that belongs to our city! If you look back in the past to the ’80s and early ’90s these corporate giants were nothing but a banner, now we allow them to control and manipulate our tournaments at every level including high school.

Together We Chill 2009
Where can you see the likes of Kareem “’Reem wit it, Rock wit it” Reid, Antawn “Anti-Freeze” Dobie, Kenny “Serious Satellite” Satterfield, John “Franchise” Strickland, “The Cab Driver,” “Baby Shaq” and other big names in the summer in NYC? Well, actually, Dyckman, Kingdome, Tri-State, and EBC are some of the tournaments where you will find these guys gettin’ busy. But there’s another, less talked-about, tournament where one can find these elite ballers: Together We Chill. Located in the heart of El Barrio on 119th Street between 2nd and 3rd Avenue, TWC might be one of the most slept-on tournaments in the city. Read More »
