“I’m interested in these three: clothes, hoes and linquor!” declares an early rhyme in “Crash Dummy”, a standout track on Occasion, the lastest full length from LA hip-hop duo Kidz In the Hall. As manifestos go, this one is admittedly modest, but it has the advantage of being entirely accurate: pretty much all the tunes on focus on one or the other of these topics or, most often, some combination of the three. If you enjoy hearing young men discuss “clothes, hoes and liquor” at length and in detail, to the accompaniment of varying sonic backdrops, this is the record for you.
It’s nice to take a break from the stress to kick back and have some fun. Despite the concerts, video vixens, Audemars Piguet watches, and the other things typically associated with successful rap careers, the scene can get tiring and stressful. MC-producer duo Kidz In The Hall recognized this issue, and, with Occasion, decided to craft an LP with one simple goal in mind: having fun.
