Having set the US alight for the past year with a series of incendiary live shows, critically acclaimed downloads and highly sought after 12"s, Chicago-based hip hop duo THE COOL KIDS finally unleash their 10 track debut "The Bake Sale? to a global legion of ardent fans. "The Bake Sale" is the world?s first formal introduction to the refreshingly original and creative duo THE COOL KIDS, whose net-wide omnipresence is undeniable at this early stage of their existence. In less than a year the pair has managed to saturate the market with their infectious rhymes via nothing but the use of the word of mouth that is the internet and their exhilarating live shows. The brilliance behind their sound is in its simplicity. "Mikey Rocks" and "Chuck Inglish" remember when hiphop was a party. They straddle the old and new schools of hip hop with admirable ease, sounding effortlessly "now" while undeniably nodding towards the sound of golden-era 80s hip hop. Put simply, it's just straight up 808-heavy, highly infectious rap that's jammed full of trademark irresistible hooky rhymes and illegal levels of cheeky flyness. The 10 track album features brand new versions of "88" and "Mikey Rocks", which have already caused a massive buzz in the clubs and online on both sides of the Atlantic.

Long known for his innovative beats, creative collaborations and crooner-esque vocal performances, Lyrics Born furthers his song-craft and incorporates elements such as pop, reggaeton and R n B on his Anti debut.
Our pop sensibility has come lately. (While writing the record) I was listening to a lot of doo-wop - in particular Phil Spector produced groups like the Ronnettes, and the Crystals - and I've been obsessed with how melodically centred those old songs are - Nick Johnson COYH
