Cool Kids. Ring a bell?

If not, let me be the one to tell you that they're the biggest thing out of the midwest since GM motors and if it does, you already knew that.

Their style is ridiculous. They make gold chains, plaid hoodies, tight neon jeans and geek glasses look like a cake walk. We all have seen it before...kids who look like they're going to some '80s party that no one knows about but them. Not the Cool Kids.

They're style mixes with retro, but never in excess. Their music also has a dose of that.

Artist ranging from LL Cool J to Kanye West come to mind when I try to pinpoint their sound. Check the cool dudes from "illville", Illinois out here...
