Video Interview: Halftime at the GOAT Park w/ Kurious



New Gasface NYM video where they track down Kurious in his old stomping grounds at GOAT Park AKA Rock Steady Park.

If your a NYC streetball buff like muah, than you probably are well aware of the rich history that went down on this court and the luminous, legendary names associated with it over the years. It's very name comes from Earl "The GOAT" Manigault whom Kurious talks about a lil' bit in the vid. If you haven't ever seen Rebound: The Legend of Earl "The Goat" Manigault, starring Don Cheadle that chronicles the late street baller's life than you haven't seen one of the greatest basketball and just plain inspirational life stories period.

Kurious spends some time talking about his days playing ball (who knew) and boxing briefly and also points over to the area where he grew up that's within eyeshot and that is apart of the massive gentrification currently going on all over Harlem.
