The 87 Stick Up Kids

In January, I won free tix to go to Check Yo Ponytail to see Million $ Mano, The Cool Kids, and the 87 Stick Up Kids.

I had heard a lot about The Cool Kids, so I was inside checking them out when I get a text from my boy Anthony saying "Come outside". I go outside, and Anthony is out there chillin with members of the 87 Stick Up Kids. These guys are out there clowning each other, reminding me of me and my friends. They were hilarious dudes. Then I met the group's dj, James aka DJ Rockwell. He's a super cool cat, and one of LA's dopest dj's.
The 87 Stick Up Kids are now doing real big things, performing shows all over, and even being named one of URB magazine's Top 100. I like to say they're like a new school Beastie Boys. But check them out here, they're dope!
