    ““STUFF' is more than a memoir; it’s a loopy, joyous, chaotic ride through the last half century of cultural chaos in the greatest city on earth. Whether you are an OG or a kid, a culture vulture, artist, design buff, fashion nerd, skater, collector, chef, cinephile, New Yorker, uptowner, downtowner, out of towner, or something else entirely, 'STUFF' will make you feel like you’re sitting with Kim in her garden high above Washington Square Park, her booming voice imploring you to pursue your life with compulsive enthusiasm. The book features an exclusive cover design by the elusive, yet legendary artist Jim Joe, best known for designing the iconic album cover for Drake’s If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late.“”
