Photos: Kanye West / A-Trak / The Cool Kids / Kid Sister [New York, NY; 01/25/08]
Photos by William JoinesThe Rose Center at New York City's American Museum of Natural History was overrun by Chicago natives this weekend, as hip-hop duo the Cool Kids joined all-smiles MC Kid Sister to open for Fool's Gold co-chief and turntablist extraordinaire A-Trak for the latest installment of the Flavorpill One Step Beyond concert series.
And as luck would have it, fellow Windy City native (and A-Trak collaborator) Kanye West even showed up to take the stage with his hometown pals-slash-nail salon cohorts. More photos and all these folks' tour dates below.
