'The Bake Sale' see The Cool Kids straddling the old and new schools of hip hop with ease, full of their trademark irresistible, hooky rhymes. Sounding effortlessly 'now' while nodding towards the sound of golden-era 80s hip hop, Chuck English (23) and Mikey Rocks (20) have produced one of the year's must-have debut releases. 'The Bake Sale' also features new versions of "88" and "Mikey Rocks", which have already caused a massive buzz in the clubs and online on both sides of the Atlantic.
