KIDZ IN THE HALL

One Stop Shop
Two college-bound students hook-up at a University at Pennsylvania talent show and the rest is history! Naledge and Double-O are two of the most creative hip-hop forces that have entered the game. Both are from Chicago, hitting you with the new generation of hip-hop. But guess what…one’s the producer/DJ and the other is the lyricist…great combination, huh? Recently, the duo just signed a hot deal with Duck Down Records and by teaming up with Just Blaze, they’re sure to make hits. On their latest album, The In Crowd, Double-O produces the hottest tracks and Naledge spits the truth. With the both of these musical geniuses, some of the illest tracks are composed such as, “Dumba$% Tales” and “Move On Up”. I’m sure you’ve seen their new video dressed as car salesmen in “Driving Down the Block” (if not, then check it out on their myspace page or youtube…immediately!). “Driving Down the Block” contains an interpolation of one of Outkast’s tracks and proves their well-rounded ability to entertain your musical soul. But hold up, I’m not finished! Kidz In The Hall’s “Work to Do” track was used for Obama’s presidential campaign (NOTE: GET YOU’RE BEHINDS OUT THERE AND VOTE THIS NOVEMBER…SERIOUSLY!!!)! Kidz In the Hall’s sophomore album, “The In Crowd” is definitely an album to pick up (if you haven’t already)! Their clever and unapologetic musical talent is one-of-a-kind and will answer the ongoing question, “Is hip-hop dead?” (Nope!). Certainly, these gifted individuals and their musical gift can be noted as the true essence of hip-hop!
