"This is Secret Agent 23 Skidoo, purveyor of the finest in POSITIVE KIDS HIP HOP! My family band and I have been working hard, Johnny Appleseeding our Kid Hop throwdowns all over the country, and it's starting to catch a fire! We got two #1 songs on XMRadio this year and got to play Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits." By combining the world of infectious beats and rhymes that he grew up on with the magical realm of childhood, Agent 23 Skidoo aims to introduce kids to hip hop without compromising either one.
His debut album, “Easy”, mixes traditional funk, bluegrass, reggae and blues with classic golden age hip hop beats. Then, he tops it off with positive, party rocking rhymes, and a slew of exciting characters from the last dragon left on earth to the 
bluegrasshopper.
bluegrasshopper.Entertainment and education strike a perfect balance in this story filled party album, making it a pamper shaking good time. Kids of all ages, (even the adult type) have been spotted nodding their heads to its sophisticated musicality.
Secret Agent 23 Skidoo had spent over a decade touring nationally in a live hip hop band, and half that time as a Dad, when he realized a need for hip hop both kids and parents could relate to.
After traveling the wide world learning life lessons and having a 
mindbogglingly good time, he was full to the brim with stories and music. With a home base in Asheville, NC, the Southeast’s worst kept secret, he enlisted the help of the local music scene’s top players. Together, they went to town on 13 tracks of ground breaking goodness.

"When North Carolina rapper Secret Agent 23 Skidoo became a dad, he set his sights toward creating hip-hop he and his daughter could enjoy equally. The result, Easy, is a revelation.
Plenty of artists have taken a stab at "kid-hop" before, but not one has produced such an unqualified success. This is real hip-hop, with thumping funk grooves that wouldn't seem out of place on adult radio and the kind of playful rhymes that came from Will Smith back in his Fresh Prince days (so it's accessible even to those who may not consider themselves rap fans).
The lyrics are pure kid stuff—the songs radiate positivity, promoting self-esteem and curiosity via stories about dragons and mermaids—but it's all so masterfully delivered that it doesn't feel the least bit corny. Secret Agent 23 Skidoo has set a new bar for the genre"
