Coolio, is an American rapper, musician and actor. Coolio was born in Monessen, Pennsylvania, the son of Artis Leon Ivey Sr., a carpenter, and Jackie Slater, a factory worker. His parents divorced and his family moved to Compton, California.
If you look up The Kid LAROI on Wikipedia, the first label you’ll see is “rapper.” And while he’s had moments where he truly spits—like on “KIDS ARE GROWING UP”—these days, he’s sounding a whole lot more like the second coming of Justin Timberlake. His latest track, “HOW DOES IT FEEL?”, makes that comparison louder than ever.
