However, legal battles, and creative differences made Sir Michael Rocks (aka Sir Mikey Rocks) and Chuck Inglish split on their paths. After deals with Jet Life and a series of collaborations, mixtapes, and more, the Kids are back at it.

Today, the guys released “Computer School” and “Chop.” Core fans ought to be pleased, as both cuts sound aligned with those ’06-’07 songs that took the Internet by storm in the infancy of the “blog era.”
