The Cool Kids - Bundle Up
Artist: The Cool Kids
Producer: The Cool Kids
Album: When Fish Ride Bicycles
Label: Green Label Sound
When The Cool Kids first broke onto DJBooth’s pages, way back in 2007 with Black Mags if you can believe it, it seemed like only a matter of minutes until we were hit with their debut album. Three years and a long string of label problems later Chuck Inglish and Mikey Rocks are finally ready to drop their When Fish Ride Bicycles album, and to celebrate they’ve released new single Bundle Up. True to form Inglish cooks up a deeply minimalistic beat that crunches with huge kicks, sharp hi-hats and occasional synth lines. Would they sound right over anything else? On the mic Chuck and Mikey spit the same super-relaxed, anthemic and occasionally hilarious verses that first caught our collective ear drums way back when: “Comin fresh out the freezer / I’m clean to the Cesaer / only third grader in the school with a beeper.” Fish (will finally) Ride Bicycles this spring when the Kids partner with Green Label Sound to release their long-awaited album. Until then, bundle up, it’s cold out there.

Shouts to Mikey for rocking Blackhawks gear haha. Seriously, though, I've seen the guys perform "Bundle Up" and its about time they released it as a single. Its not quite as good as their early early stuff (see "Black Mags"), but it falls right in line with their sound/style. Fans of the duo should be happy.

This sounds just like they're old shit which I loved...in 07. But times have changed IMO. |

As I expected better as well, I still find the beat creative and very entertaining. The lyrics and chorus could use work though.
