The Cool Kids can do no wrong in my book. Getting down with them is one of the best decisions Travis Barker has made. This video will hurt your eyes without 3D glasses, so if you don't have them just listen. It's dope.
I hate to admit this to the world, but I find most hip hop to be stale and cookie cutter these days. Everyone seems to be using the same producers and the art of story telling has gone the wayside. In the large field of copy cat rappers and whack MCs, only a few can catch and hold my attention. Last year I fell in love with the sounds of 88 Keys and The Cool Kids. This year I think Canadian MC, Shad K, is taking over. His new album, The Old Prince, helped me rediscover what I love so much about hip hop.
