#DXCLUSIVE: Cool Nutz Celebrates Soul Food With "Pig Ears & Chitlins" Album

HipHopDX Premiere -

Portland, Oregon-based MC Cool Nutz has returned with a new album titled Pig Ears & Chitlins, which is inspired by cherished soul food staples.

“That type of food has always signified a feeling of home, community and more within the African-American community,” he tells HipHopDX. “Whether you chose to indulge or not, the meaning was deep-rooted and truly one of authentic family.”

Throughout the project, Cool Nutz tackles topics such as race relations fatherhood, friendship, haters and culture. The eight-track album features appearances from Illmaculate, Mic Crenshaw, Mic Capes and April Cason and production from Trox, Cee Goods, Lawz Spoken and Deezo Woods.
