iGOTNEXT:Kidz In The Hall


Kidz In The Hall is an American hip hop duo formed in 2000 who specialize in a brand of hip hop sometimes referred to as "hipster-hop". Group members Jabari Evans (Naledge) and Michael Aguilar (Double-O) met in 2000 during a talent show at the University of Pennsylvania. They began recording songs, making demos, and performing at local shows. That eventually led to Double-0 and Naledge forming Kidz in the Hall. Double-0 eventually made a connection with Just Blaze. Blaze aligned himself with the duo and oversaw School Was My Hustle. Kidz in the Hall signed a group deal with Rawkus Records, and released their debut album School Was My Hustle in 2006.

School Was My Hustle is the first studio album from Kidz in the Hall, a Chicago hip hop duo. It was the first release since Rawkus was reactivated independently after its catalog was purchased by Universal Music Group. Since the album got caught up in label politics and the rise of hip-hop sub-genere hipster-hop. I will consider them new artist based on there second album.
