No doubt you remember these immortal lines from Coolio’s 1995 hit Gangster’s Paradise:
Power and the money, money and the power
Minute after minute, hour after hour
Everybody’s running, but half of them ain’t lookin
What’s goin on in the kitchen, but I don’t know what’s cookin
What’s cooking these days is apparently a middling-looking Caprese salad, hilariously prepared by Coolio himself. Shaka Zulu! Now, every website and their mother has already posted the video of Cookin’ With Coolio, so we thought we’d just remind you why this man is a big enough “celebrity” to get his own cooking show, wherein he pulls a dime-bag of mystery spice out of a woman’s cleavage:
This also explains why Coolio wears a hat through his entire show.
