Real good assessment of the interview this, I see some taking offense with aspects of it but the man was just sharing his journey he spoke his truth, sure he made many mistakes along the way but he is a better person for it.

This is what all interviews should sound like. Kong was very real, spoke truthfully and openly. Kong evoked all the emotions, he made you emotional when he shead tears, he made you laugh when he recalled his past. Respect to teach and respect to Kong. Could not stop watching and listening to this one.

@@TeachDem your programme bring back so many childhood memories from hearing many entertainers talk about events or people, who I knew directly or indirectly. I can surely attest to many of these stories from Jungle 12 to NY, and many other places. It is great to hear about these music geniuses and their plight as a regular Joe, so the world can see the human side of them, which I witnessed growing up in Augustown and then Brooklyn and Hartford CT. Your programme has surely made me understand how rich I am. I traveled the same path with many of these people, but I remained who I am. Just a simple man traveling Jah land with his little butter pan. I now meet young people who are desperately interested in the 80's era and it's happenings. The greatest time in black history since the creation of the pyramids. In my opinion. I grew up in Brooklyn between Brownsville and Bedford Stuyvesant.

One of my favourite artists. Look how his voice still crisp and clean his voice is.

King Kong was transparent, not sparing the truth. This man spoke his truth, he didn’t hide or pretend. Hopefully he learn from his mistakes and have grown to be a better man. These artists experience and conquer the imaginable, that is a corrupt system and personal short comings. Life is a journey!

This is so real..no pretense from the artist..just the undiluted truth. Too often you hear some entertainers doing interviews and you can hear the phoney stories and lies that they are saying. Keep up the good work Teach and continue giving these forgotten artist the shine that they deserve.

Thats why u must not abuse the youths because you see the big man cry when he remembers the memory of his dad beating him

One of my favourite artists. Great interview Teach Dem. It’s refreshing to the realness in King Kongs voice

This man is so entertaining.his lifestyle was so risky ,to God be the glory he's here .his story is so entertaining ,I would listen him until tomorrow

This is what I call exclusive, King Kong and Teach Dem give thanks fi sharing with us these great stories.

Teach, I just love your interviews, they are funny, interesting, historical, informative, filled with laughter, We all go back in time in the musical industry. They always reveal the hidden truths. .One thing that remains common in all interviews is the corruption in the business. Back then the artistes just loved the music but the producers were ripping them off. King Kong is funny and is real... Watch him a rub out him weed...Great interview with animation at its best... King Kong is the best.

I am really enjoying this King Kong interview and how frank he is about his past. Bwoy Teach whatever caused you to pivot and come up with the idead re these interviews over a year ago was a God sent. I love Jamaican music and thought I knew all about the artistes but these interviews are really a learning experience and an eye opener. Thanks Teach!

Teach dem I know you know this already but I swear your going to get order of distinction or some great award for your therapeutic interviews. I swear this was a touching interview and I’m just at the first 10 minutes.

Kong is a real man. I like how he explains life lessons. Not many “intelligent” people can understand some basic lessons life teaches because we are so in tuned to the book, we don’t pay keen attention to the real. And the real is where life is.

It's amazing how we Jamaicans express ourselves..... " me get bite pon some ting.....boom bang boom" u know wha a mean 🤣🤣🤣 we have our own language with our language!

I love this artist's energy. And I don't know who led him to believe he was a "dunce". From him & his siblings being so creative & inventive with those film reels & flashlight, not to mention this survival skills.

"Dunce... No... You had learning disabilities, in which your teachers were ill educated to handle (Couldn't meet you on the level you were able to learn) This is one of my all time favorite interview 🙏🏾💯🖤💯 (Do it for the love of the music syndrome) cause a lot of Jamaican Artistes their financial stability even to this day.

Big up teach dem big interview as always easy King👑Kong

Brilliant interview...whenever the interviewee is given the opportunity to speak without interruption or having their answers second guessed/predicted by interviewer they can speak with a flow. Teach dem you were able to capture a moment in time of our music where lifestyle influenced the art form. Thank you King Kong for being so candid and clearing the various rumours surrounding your life and the industry. We are a great people despite the bad hand that has been given to us.

I'm a straight tenor saw fan. Saw to mi ting and nitty gritty but dis man guh tru some tings. Cyan believe jammings treat him like a step child. Bwoy those ole time artists guh tru some things. Dis will be one of my favorite videos. I dont like how he luv beat woman but the man story is very interesting. I learn suh much from these videos. Pls don't stop search out all of the bigga older artists before dey drop out. Ur making history. Dis could have been on Netflix and ppl pay to watch it. Very very interesting. Man!!

this dude had me cracking the f### up. I freaking love this interview.

I watched this interview when it premiered two years ago and cried when King Kong cried. I watched it again today and still cried when King Kong cried. This was a touching interview. It appears King Kong had a lot of trauma. I’m glad these interviews doubled as a therapy session for some of the interviewees. It gives them a chance to exhale and to share what’s on their minds. Thank you, Teach Dem.

I remember that back in the days my friends and I used to practice our DJ skills to the Trouble again Version cos it was so nice and smooth and easy to slip into; you could deejay anything on that rythm; good to see King Kong on here.

Blessings to Teach Dem and King Kong ...love the honesty

Thanks for these tremendous interviews finding out a lot of things about these musicians that we did not know
