Pimpin Pen and K-Paul are the Country Cousins. Two long time best friends and cousins, based in Austin, Texas home of SXSW. The duo, who have made the most of SXSW as it has gotten bigger and bigger every year is primed for radio, touring and can hang with the best when it comes to features.

Having toured with DJ Mike “"5000" Watts and having got the official co-sign from the legendary screwed up DJ, Country Cousins is as good oil in Texas, and we’re not talking about that black oil. With “NR4L double cups in hand, Country Cousins has been making its runs across the South for years, developing a cult-like fan base in Central Texas and the surrounding regions.

Dealing with health scares and the trials and tribulations of being incarcerated, Pimpin Pen and K-Paul have been through it all just to get this point. Now with a new mixtape coming, it has a host of features including Freddie Gibbs and Kirko Bangz. Country Cousins is on the verge of reaching what many said would be impossible.
