Mannie Fresh And The Cool Kids Are Working On A Joint Album?

Fans of legendary producer Mannie Fresh could be looking forward to new tunes from the Cash Money boardsman, as he’s reportedly working on a collaborative album with the rap group The Cool Kids. Group member Mikey Rocks announced the update with a post on social media.

Over the weekend, the Chicago spitter posted a clip of himself in the studio on his Instagram Story and captioned it with news about the album’s recording process. “In here workin on this Mannie fresh x Cool kids album,” Rocks wrote in the post, which quickly spread across social media, with DJ A-Trak further fueling rumors by hinting that the tentative collab would be dropping on his label, Fools Gold Records, in a post of his own.
