Alright, so i got the chance to be interviewed by my boy Harry Delano from http://officialharrydelano.blogspot.com/, be sure to check out his blog, drop some comments and follow! Tell me what you think of the interview!
1. So Dakota, tell us a bit about yourself?
Whadd up? My name is Dakota "Koda" Tague, I am about to turn 16, and I'm originally from Manhattan.
2. How did you start your blog?
My interest toward blogging came from surfing the web, looking at sited like Hypebeast, and SlamxHype, and the Red Ribbon Army! I saw these, and thought it would be a cool thing to get into, because like these sites, I loved streetwear/fashion/hip-hop culture etc.
3. Who or what inspired you?
To be honest, I'm not really inspired by a single person, or people at all. I'm more inspired by ART as a whole, when i see someone on their grind, doing what they love, that's what motivates me. It could be anything from Music, to drawing, to how someone dresses to graphic design! I guess I'm really just inspired by people doing what they love, by expressing themselves and trying to make it big!
4. Who are your inspirations?
If I did have to choose actually people for my inspiration, I would have to say Drake and Tupac would be my main inspiration, because they are doing what they love, expressing themselves, and when you hear their work, it can move you, and it something you can easily relate to, because they express everyday problems! At the same time, I'm inspired by the majority of bloggers on the web, just for doing them, people like Remy and Ricci Steez, who use their talent to create true art!
5. Who are some of your favourite artists?
This list could go on for days! Drake, Tupac, Biggie, Mac Dre, Kid Cudi, Big Sean, Macklemore, Short Dawg, Weezy, Tyga, NWA. Music is something I love, so I truly have hundreds of favorite artists, because they are all different! That's a little list for you though!
6. What is your favourite website?
You mean other then PlanetKoda.blogspot.com? (;
One website I always find myself on is Adeen Nyc!
7. What are your favourite brands?
That's another tough one! I really like Freshjive, BBC, Breezy Excursion, Dope Couture! So many more though!
And Skeme! you guys will learn about Skeme later though!
8. In three words, how would you describe your fashion style?
Adaptive, Creative and Fresh!
9. Can you tell us a bit about Skeme?
I will tell you that I have been taking classes on screen printing and silk screening. Also have been working on getting all the materials I need for that. When it comes to Skeme, it isn't just a brand, or a movement I'm trying to create. Skeme isn't just some name your going to see on material products. Skeme is a way of life, it's me and my homies way of life. Always Skemin' for another way to make that paper, Skeme is our grind. I hope that makes sense, Skeme is everything from my blog, to the music I listen to, to the bed I sleep on! It's how we get by, always making up a new Skeme to make it in this world!
10. What are some of your goals in life?
I have many goals, but my one and only main, true goal is.... To be happy, and live life to the fullest!
11. Anything else you want say?
