Chocolate Buttamilk
An exploration of Kool & The Gang—the unsung sonic architects of hip-hop.
Chocolate Buttamilk is a ROYSTA mixtape exploring the legacy of Kool & The Gang through the music they made, the artists they influenced, and the records that sampled, reinterpreted, and extended their sound. With both ROYSTA and Kool & The Gang born and raised in Jersey City, the series is rooted in a shared hometown and musical lineage—following the group's journey from jazz and raw funk through disco, R&B, and into the DNA of hip-hop, connecting the dots one song, sample, story, and crate at a time.
