This week, we continue to spotlight Rolling Stone’s newest crop of Artists to Watch. To kick off this week we introduce you to the Cool Kids, a retro-rap duo from Chicago that specializes in sparse, bass-heavy beats and gritty EPMD-infused prose. To see the group’s video for “Black Mags,” which does for BMX bikes what Lupe Fiasco did for skateboards, click here.
