About Mac Miller
Coming on the scene with a throwback style that betrayed his years, Pittsburgh-based rapper Mac Miller had just turned 18 when he spent 2010 making his name through mixtapes and video-sharing websites. Born Malcolm McCormick, Miller first used the alias 'Easy Mac,' a name referenced on his debut mixtape, 2007's But My Mackin' Ain't Easy. His K.I.D.S. mixtape became his breakthrough when it was released in August of 2010, earning plenty of attention from hip-hop blogs and landing Miller a recording contract with Rostrum Records. Rostrum released his debut EP, On and on and Beyond, and his debut album, Blue Slide Park, in 2011. The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. The more experimental effort Watching Movies with the Sound Off followed in 2013, with left-field hip-hop names like Action Bronson, Earl Sweatshirt, and Flying Lotus lending a hand. A year later he signed with Warner Bros. and launched his own imprint, REMember Music, under the major label. GO:OD AM followed in 2015 with Lil B, Chief Keef, and Miguel on the album's guest list. Just a year after GO:OD AM ascended to the Top Five of the Billboard 200 and Rap charts, Miller returned with his fourth LP, The Divine Feminine. The album featured contributions from guests like Kendrick Lamar, Cee Lo Green, Robert Glasper, and Anderson.Paak, who lent his soulful rasp to first single 'Dang!'

K.I.D.S. (Kickin' Incredibly Dope Shit) is the fourth mixtape by American rapper Mac Miller. It was released by Rostrum Records on August 13, 2010, through DatPiff.[1] The title is a play on words, as an acronym for 'Kickin' Incredibly Dope Shit' and a reference to the 1995 film Kids, which is quoted throughout the mixtape.[2][3] It was later commercially released on April 29, 2020.[4] A deluxe version was released on its 10th anniversary and includes two new tracks.[5]
Content and release[edit]
Seven songs from K.I.D.S. had music videos created for them: 'Nikes On My Feet', 'Kool Aid & Frozen Pizza', 'Knock Knock', 'Senior Skip Day', 'La La La La', 'Traffic In The Sky', and 'Don't Mind If I Do'.[6][7][8][9][10][11] The videos for 'Nikes on My Feet' and 'Kool Aid & Frozen Pizza' were both heavily played on YouTube, reaching over 50 million views each. Both songs featured prominent classic hip-hop samples, from Q-Tip's remix of Nas' 'The World Is Yours' and Lord Finesse's 'Hip 2 Da Game', respectively. In July 2012, Finesse filed a $10 million lawsuit against Miller, Rostrum and DatPiff for use of the sample.[12] The lawsuit was settled out of court in December 2012, with its stipulations kept confidential.[13]
To support the mixtape, Miller embarked on his first tour in early 2011, the 'Incredibly Dope Tour'.[14] Miller sold out at every location on the tour.[15]
Rapper Logic credits the song 'Kool Aid and Frozen Pizza' as an inspiration to create his debut mixtape.[16]
