Biography

1984–2012: Early life and The Cool Kids

Chuck Inglish, born Evan Ingersoll, was raised in Mount Clemens, Michigan until he moved to Chicago, Illinois after turning 18.[1] Ingersoll attended Notre Dame High School in Harper Woods, Michigan where he played football and basketball. He met Sir Michael Rocks in 2005 when Reed found a beat on MySpace that Ingersoll had produced.[2] The two met to discuss terms of the beat's sale, and eventually ended up recording for two hours.[3] They were inspired by golden age hip hop and artists like LL Cool J and Eric B. & Rakim.[4] Ingersoll began promoting the new duo's material, and it was eventually booked by Josh Young of Flosstradamus for a DJ performance.[3] At their performance (in a venue called Town Hall Pub), the duo met the DJ Diplo who offered to release a mixtape of their unreleased tracks titled Totally Flossed Out on his label Mad Decent, though it was eventually released on C.A.K.E. Recordings.[5] They also received an offer from the DJ A-Trak to sign to his Fool's Gold Records label,[5] which they did, but only for one single.[6] During their time with Fool's Gold Records, the Cool Kids felt they weren't getting enough attention: “When your boss is on tour with Kanye West, it’s easy to have timelines missed,” said Chuck in an interview.[7]

All of their material had been released solely on the group's MySpace page[4]—their recording contract came after performances at the CMJ Music Festival and Pitchfork Media Music Festival, on July 15, 2007.[2][8] Eventually, The Cool Kids signed to Chocolate Industries, another independent label.[6] In 2008, the group revealed on their MySpace page that their debut album, When Fish Ride Bicycles, would be released in 2008, though it did not come out until 2011.[9] Ingersoll has been the producer for tracks released thus far,[10] but both work in rapping and production.[11] The duo uses music software program Reason from Propellerhead Software to produce their music.[12] In 2007, they opened for M.I.A. on her KALA Tour,[13] and they also performed at the 2008 Rock the Bells hip hop festival.[14] The group toured across Australia in February 2008 and also appeared at the Laneway Festival. The group also appeared at SUNY Purchase's Culture Shock event in April 2009.[15] One of the duo's singles, "Black Mags", was featured in a late 2007 Rhapsody TV commercial, along with Sara Bareilles.[16] In the same year, the group collaborated with Lil Wayne and DJ Benzi through the Internet on a track entitled "Gettin' It.[17]

The Cool Kids have been featured in the video games NBA Live 08 and MLB 2K8 with the song "88",[18] in Need for Speed Nitro, with The Bloody Beetroots in the song Awesome,[19] and in the episode "The First Cut Is the Deepest" from HBO's TV series Entourage with the song "Mikey Rocks".[20] They were listed in Rolling Stone's Ten Artists to Watch in 2008.[21] According to Rolling Stone, "since "Black Mags" debuted, the Cool Kids have gone from an underground sensation in their native Chicago to the hottest ticket at New York's CMJ festival."[22] In 2008, they headlined the "NBA 2K Bounce Tour" along with Q-Tip.[23] The group's second official mixtape, Gone Fishing was released on May 5, 2009.[9] On May 12, 2010, they released a mixtape titled Tacklebox.[24] In 2010, Chuck Inglish and Mikey Rocks teamed up with Gary, Indiana's Freddie Gibbs and Cleveland's Chip tha Ripper to form the "super group" P.O.C. (Pulled Over by the Cops).[25] On July 11, 2011, The Cool Kids' debut album When Fish Ride Bicycles was released.[26] On January 2, 2012, Inglish released an instrumental mixtape titled WRKING.[27] On April 23, 2012, he released another instrumental mixtape titled WRKOUT.[28]

2013-present: Convertibles

On June 13, 2013, he released a mixtape titled Droptops.[29] On October 15, 2013, he released a five-song EP titled Easily.[30] On April 8, 2014, he released his debut album Convertibles through his Sounds Like Fun imprint and Dave Sitek's Federal Prism Records.[31][32] Co-produced by Inglish and Incubus' Mike Einziger, the 13-track project features collaborations with Chance the Rapper, Action Bronson, BJ the Chicago Kid, Ab-Soul, and Mac Miller amongst others, along with fellow The Cool Kids member Sir Michael Rocks and Canadian electro funk duo Chromeo.[32] Convertibles was preceded by three singles – "Swervin'" featuring Sir Michael Rocks and Polyester the Saint, "Came Thru/Easily" featuring Ab-Soul and Mac Miller, and "Legs" featuring Chromeo.[33][34][35]
