Mikey just trying to get on the radar with that tape. Which he properly did.


You cant be underground forever man. The tape served its purpose. I do agree it was not as good as Premier Politics or PP 1.5 tho.

I don't see what that tape did for him, it came out and was forgotten in the same week. Best move of his career, along with Casey V, was going on tour with Mac Miller and placing dibs on those white fans.

Yeah I'm not seeing how that tape put him on the radar. He been on the radar, that tape ain't expose him to anybody that wasn't listening to him before. Most new listeners are probably brought in by his older shyt or his features on Currensy/Mac Miller shyt

Cool Kids have had really weird careers, they paved the way for the hipster movement but got no shine themselves

They had some nice buzz for a minute. In magazines as next up, had their songs in commercials and tv shows, appeared on commercials, but label issues prevented their album from coming out and the buzz left, other guys took their spot.

Yea, both them and Mickey Factz are interesting cases, another hypebeast/solecollector/niketalk OG who has seen his career fall by the wasteside due to label drama. Its messed up too, because I thought the tape he dropped this year was the best thing he's done so far and he put a dope concept/idea behind it and generated very little buzz.

Not sure what happened to Mickey.

Seemed like he had next, I remember at one time there was talk of him being with Roc Nation and then he just disappeared.
