During the West Coast hip hop emergence, Coolio became one of the stars to emerge. In the mid-1990s, Coolio posted a major hit with his single, “Gangsta’s Paradise,” with Michelle Pfeiffer making a cameo in the music video. A lot changed for Coolio in the years after this.
Last summer, Coolio talked to Hip Hop Vibe’s DJ Kelly J about his history in the game. The interview was definitely something those who saw it will never forget. It was an amazing opportunity for everyone involved, as Coolio always tells an interesting story.
Coolio stopped by Shade 45 and talked to Sway on “Sway In The Morning” about more interesting stories. In their conversation, Coolio opened up on his past cocaine addiction. He would also speak on the story behind “Gangsta’s Paradise,” along with much more.
