Welcome to Leather Blvd. A Black utopia conceived by B. Cool-Aid—the duo of vocalist Pink Siifu and producer Ahwlee— populated by an ensemble cast of characters and collaborators, including Ladybug Mecca (Digable Planets), Big Rube (Dungeon Family), Fousheé, Mndsgn, Quelle Chris, Denmark Vessey & Liv.e, with extensive instrumentation by DJ Harrison and Butcher Brown. Picture Black co-op-owned beauty shops, health food stores, weed spots, nightclubs, bookstores, bars, etc., on either side of a wide and impossibly long street. Now picture people of every size and shape and shade of brown hustling and bustling up and down the street, just living their lives. There is such a place, even if it’s not technically real. Pink Siifu linked up with LA-based producer Ahwlee to release BRWN, their debut project as B. Cool-Aid, in 2017. He’s previously collaborated with The Avalanches, Kenny Beats & Madlib, and seen praise on his solo projects from Pitchfork (Best Rap Albums of 2018), the New York Times & FADER, who named him “one of the most intriguing musicians in Black music”. He’s toured with BADBADNOTGOOD & Freddie Gibbs.
