School is back in session. Today, ChinaShop features Roscoe Umali, the third artist in our six-part series highlighting former students of LA’s Pilgrim High School who have become integral parts of West Coast hip-hop and DJ culture. Last month we featured Project Blowed co-founder Abstract Rude and Brooklyn’s DJ Icewater. Still to come: DJ StoneRokk, J*Davey’s Brook D’Leau and Busdriver.
