“we are all young hippy kids at heart”
After sharing the stage with his new label mate Afroman, Kid Lennon christens the new relationship through his Cosmic Wire debut, ‘Cuz I’m High’, out August 20th. In collaboration with Afroman and YHK De$tin, the specially-chopped, down tempo single ‘Cuz I’m High’ serves as the certified sequel to the timeless record that put weed legalization in motion 21 years ago.
Continuing the saga of ‘Because I Got High’ Afroman rolls out fresh bars for the 2021 remix, while Kid Lennon rips merciless verses. ‘Cuz I’m High’ showcases YHK De$tin who originally debuted on Kid’s 2017 club-ready hit, ‘Juice’ and his satisfyingly smooth voice has been featured on other Lennon releases such as, ‘YOKO’. Alongside the release comes a music video directed by Allex Tar that Kid shares about the video shoot, “I had the best time of my life that day.”
By finding a resonating flow and hitting with sharp lyrical timing, Kid Lennon aka Chief Peace knows how to set the dance party off. Lennon’s magnetic sound has pulled in a collective of talented artists and creatives to form Young Hippy Kids (YHK). With the spirit, “we are all young hippy kids at heart”, YHK branches out from Lennon’s hometown of Oklahoma City to instill positivity.
