Rame Loves Life

by Amon Focus
October 28, 2019
in Conversations with Artists, Neighborhood Voices

 

On a rather beautiful day in the Lower East Side, Rame and I caught up on life. In this episode Rame shares a few stories of growing up in The Lower, his experiences as a stick-up kid, skating, graffiti, being on the run, life in Cali, getting shot, life as vegan and what is new with his art.

Enjoy,
Amon
