Chiddy Bang: Pretty Much Amazing

Who doesn't love some fun hip-hop? That's what Philly's own Chiddy Bang are, some good ol' fun hip hop to just have a good time to. Chiddy Bang's members, Chiddy and Xaphoon Jones started making music together while at Drexel University in Pennsylvania. Chiddy Bang's music could labeled as alternative hip-hop, fusing classic hip-hop sounds with alternative samples. While they've released a couple of mixtape's in the past few years, they started gaining significant exposure with their mixtape The Swelly Express. Specifically with their track "Opposite of Adults" which uses a sample of "Kids" by MGMT. Chiddy Bang released their first studio album Breakfast this past February, with it's main singles "Mind Your Manners" and "Ray Charles".

As I've recently started embracing hip hop and rap a lot more in my "musical life", Chiddy Bang has been one of the central groups in doing so. They have a solid sound to just have fun, bob your head to and rap along with.
