The Jumpoff – Volume 2

The Cool Kids are one of the hottest hip-hop duos in the nation right now. Coming from Chicago, these two take the rap game in stride, delivering tongue-in-cheek verses about everything from riding bicycles to playing Street Fighter to saying “What’s up?” to some cuties. Drop in some old school bass, rad synth lines, and you’ve got yourself an instant party starter.

“Delivery Man” is an as-of-yet unreleased cut off of Mountain Dew’s Green Label Sound comp. The video is fire and almost seems reminiscent of the Fresh Prince & DJ Jazzy Jeff, except with cooler shoes. Put it in your tape deck, roll down the windows, get nice.

    That was tight. But why did it end? I wanted that beat to keep playing for like another full minute…

    I know, right?

    It cuts off so suddenly. Maybe they’ll put out an instrumental track.

    Fitting that you would post them on your Japan blog…

A Gaijin Primer:

In Japan, when eating grapes, one does not eat the skin. Rather, you suck out the innards and deposit your refuse in the appropriate receptacle.

Ex: ”ええ?顔を食べた?野蛮人!”
"What? You eat the skin [lit. "face"]? Barbarian!"
