Kid, from Kid 'n Play, has been in the game for a long time. We’re not the first to ask about his famous hightop fade or the kickstep. The difference is that when he comes to People’s Party with Talib Kweli, those convos are set in a new context.
In this riveting convo, Kid speaks freely about growing up biracial with racist relatives, being looked at as less Black because of the music he made, pressure to keep his iconic hightop fade, and so much more. It’s a truly insightful conversation with a rap lion. A deep dive into one of the godfathers of the whole damn game.
