63 and 19 are mixtapes by Kool A.D, released as a double-album on February 7, 2013. [1] The albums include collaborations with Pictureplane, Young L, SKYWLKR, Keyboard Kid, Trackademicks, Fat Tony, Mike Finito, Lakutis and Spank Rock as well as a beat Ad-Rock of the Beastie Boys originally made for Das Racist. [1]
63 and 19 received mostly positive reviews from critics. Vice described 19 and 63 as "taking the discursive and funny work he was doing with Das Racist and stripping it of any sense of structure or formula, but also work[ing] to free him from the label of 'Dude in Das Racist'". [2] Pitchfork also praised the mixtapes, calling them "organically avant-garde", giving 19 a score of 7.9 out of 10 and 63 a 7.6. [3] Afropunk called the record "challenging, vibrant, and sometimes brilliant". [4] Contactmusic.com named 63 one of the ten best albums of 2013. [5]
Note 1: While the track list credits Kanye West, it's only a sample. [6]
