School Was My Hustle...



Naledge and Double-0 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 a partnership that spawned Kidz In The Hall. Double-0 eventually made a solid connection with industry heavyweight Just Blaze, whom after hearing their music, knew Naledge and Double-0 had something the world needed to hear. He quickly aligned himself with the project and committed to overseeing "School Was My Hustle", as well as executive producing Naledge's solo project. “Kidz In The Hall are a breath of fresh air in this tired rap world we're living in right now.” After business meetings and continued musical growth, Naledge and Double-0, signed a group deal with Rawkus Records, and released their debut album School Was My Hustle in 2006.

Kidz In The Hall are looking to become one of hip-hop's most admired acts, destined to leave a legacy of artistic brilliance. Double-0 the DJ and Naledge the MC are reviving a format established as the set standard in early-'90s hip-hop, and with their debut release, "School Was My Hustle". In November of 2007, Kidz in the Hall were officially signed to Duck Down Records, an independent label started by founding members of the Boot Camp Clik. Double-O added, "I think that this deal is an excellent opportunity to spread our wings. Duck Down Records has proven that they can successfully promote independent acts on a major scale and their enthusiasm in our music let's us know that they are 100% behind making the Kidz In The Hall movement successful." The duo's upcoming album, "The In Crowd," will be released in April 2008. (wikipedia)

I am so happy you put these dudes up. They represent everything that's good about hiphop. "Go Ill" is my favorite joint on that album. If you want a great listen... please pick up their album
