the cool kids - 88 (chewy chocolate cookies remix) (2009)

i know we've never posted about em before, but after stealing all of the remixes from SSDT, i took a huge liking for all of the remixes by this group/this guy/this batch of cookies. anyway, they just dropped a new mix, and this time for the cool kids' 88, off of the bake sale or totally flossed out or any of the 137964 mixtapes they dropped. get at it.

concert review: 2k sports bounce tour featuring q-tip, the cool kids and the knux (nov. 21, 2008)

so i got the very rare opportunity to catch some of the best acts in modern hip-hop open for q-tip, who's in a league of his own. to be honest, the man's solo stuff is good (the renaissance more so than amplified) but he will never step from the reign that a tribe called quest had put above hip-hop. seeing q-tip perform tribe songs was truly unreal.

anyway, check the review here, and hit the comments for set lists.

EDIT: the cool kids have been keeping a blog and also posted some pictures from the houston shop, so get up on that.

if this tour is hitting your town, DO NOT MISS IT.

p.s. my editors came up with the title. and yes, i know it is weak.

the cool kids - totally flossed out (2007)

all i have to say is that it's about time we post about the cool kids. they've been coming up hard (that's what she said) in 2007, and i cannot stop listening to these dudes. most people compare them to the beastie boys, which alright, fair enough. but i never liked the beastie boys, and i don't agree.

anyway, this EP is full of hooks and punchlines, and a whole lot of old-school hip-hop, with the sass and stylings of n.e.r.d., so be sure to check this shit out for namedropping purposes.

they're bringing '88 back.
