In 2015, Chicago’s hip hop duo The Cool Kids dropped a bomb on their loyal fanbase: Their highly anticipated Shark Week album was never going to drop. Why? Because The Cool Kids were "never coming back."

But apparently, they’ve had a change of heart.

Chuck Inglish, one half of the duo, went on Twitter Wednesday night to announce he and Sir Michael Rocks would reunite under The Cool Kids moniker—and that this time, it’s for real. The Subvert Agency has also confirmed the news.

I called Mikey and realized nothing would feel better than us being the originators again.

The Cool Kids are back forreal.

Though Chuck and Rocks have been working as solo artists over the last few years, the two decided to come back together after the slew of tragic events that took place this month. And they said they hope new music will help alleviate some of the pain. 

This July has been hard on all of us.
I needed to do my part to heal us.

I'm trying to make this world fresh as fuck

I had really lost my mind this summer.

I was losing motivation. All I wanted to do was being back The Cool.

This is only way.

The Hiatus is over. We missed being us.

We refuse to let people down and not be the actual group. We been through too much.

Chuck said the duo will begin working on music once his new album releases. This should be exciting news for fans, as The Cool Kids haven't dropped an album since 2011's When Fish Ride Bicycles

I can't say I've felt more complete as an artist than to be back with my brother to give the world what we started.

I'm not saying it to pump fake. I've felt incomplete.. I needed to bring us back for our sanity... And to give you that feeling is golden

We really felt like we hadn't really finished what we started.

They took our styles and ran off.

We coming back for it all.
