17 02 2012

while when fish ride bicycles wasn’t as exciting as its preceding hype and delays made it out to be, these guys are still great entertainers. THE COLORS! so many!

mixtape: sir michael rocks – the rocks report (2011)

14 03 2011

i guess we’re slowly inching towards the cool kids’ debut lp, but for now, we have the solo LP/mixtape debut of mikey rocks, who was always the more lyrically potent member of the duo. with production from the likes of ski beatz and madlib, it’s possible that this’ll be better than a cool kids album anyway. tracklist after the jump, download below.

dope. looks like we’re actually gonna get that new cool kids record sooner than later. about time, right?

1 03 2011

aren’t these guys supposed to be working on their debut? since…2007? c’mon man. regardless, mikey is my favorite of the cool kids, and him over ski beatz production — nice.

the cool kids – bundle up (2011)

24 02 2011

looks like the cool kids are finally gonna release their album this year, according to many a press release. for now, we have the newest single from the project, courtesy of mountain dew and the green label sound.

even though mikey’s solo shit has been ridiculously on point, i find it strange that they’re releasing solo stuff before their debut LP even dropped.

video: the cool kids – big talk (2010)

14 12 2010

the cool kids collect their thoughts for a minute to release another music video. this time, it’s for the recently released and extremely dirty south trunk-ready “big talk.” look for solo projects from both chuck and mikey, as well as the cool kids debut in the coming year. as of now.

the cool kids – big talk (2010)

11 11 2010

chuck inglish let this bass heavy monster go on twitter last night (which seemed to be the trend, huh?). it even came with a “this will rot your speakers if you turn it up too loud” warning, so take that as you will.

lupe fiasco – i’m beamin [remix; f. all city chess club] (2010)

13 10 2010

this was announced a loooong time ago and now it’s finally here. for those of you wondering about the order of this cypher-minded remix, it goes:

asher roth, charles hamilton, lupe fiasco, the cool kids, blu, diggy, dosage and b.o.b. i guess wale and j.cole didn’t make it? they were easily 2 of my top 3 most anticipated, but i’ll take a new blu verse when i can.

video: travis barker – jump down [f. the cool kids] (2010)

12 10 2010

barker wants us to give the drummer some, while the video for this video purposely pays tribute to the great west-coast-chillin-out-maxin-relaxin-all-cool videos of the 90s. and nothin’ but a beach thang baaaaby.

too bad it’s october.

video: mikey rocks – s.s. [ft. latif] (2010)

27 09 2010

here’s one from sir michael rocks (of the cool kids) to ride out what’s left of the summer to. real nice jam, with nice visuals to match. and that dude latif has his eyewear game on lock.

travis barker – jump down [ft. the cool kids] (2010)

20 09 2010

mr. barker drops the first single from his upcoming solo lp, give the drummer some. this literally sounds exactly like what you’d expect a cool kids/travis collab to sound like minus travis doing anything too showy on the drums. overall a nice effort though that should definitely gain interest in what else travis has up his sleeve for the album.

video: mikey rocks – foreign features (2010)

23 08 2010

this definitely isn’t the track you’d expect from a cool kids solo track. mikey rocks (or sir michael rocks, as he refers to himself here) boasts a brand new look full of impalas and weed. and a really nice beat. looks like someone took hanging with currensy to heart. looking forward to hearing more of this.

video: the cool kids – gold links (2010)

12 08 2010

even though i feel the novelty of the cool kids has long since worn off, it doesn’t take away for their knack of minimalistic beats that shake your trunk, and it doesn’t take away from the witty rhymes this duo has always been able to come up. mikey and chuck are back on their gold chain shit with this one.

off of the recently released tacklebox, which can be downloaded here.

mixtape: the cool kids – tacklebox (2010)

21 03 2010

this shit is dope. on one hand, i’m upset i missed this, but on the other – i was probably too drunk to give a shit at that moment. it’s not like i bought a badge and could’ve gotten into this anyway.
