Listen: Kool A.D. - "Beautiful Naked Psychedelic Gherkin Exploding Tomato Sauce All Over Your Face"

Things cooled off here a bit with the holidays but here is something new from Kool A.D. and Bill Ding. The duo like to throw humor into their rhymes, and their latest track, “Beautiful Naked Psychedelic Gherkin Exploding Tomato Sauce All Over Your Face” isn’t any different. Joined by Haji Springer, the trio delivers a tune, which apparently is the first leak off Kool A.D.’s upcoming album 19. The accompanying video of vintage Ricki Lake Show clips acts as the video.
