This sounds like a question of slang vs. King's own. My take is that the original sentence would get you in trouble for English Comp. paper on the Influence of Drug Use on the Compositional Selection of Kid 'n Play. You're probably better with reformulating to "Play must have" or something like that. However, for a couple of guys on a couch talking about the old Kid 'n Play Kickstep, I wouldn't worry about it
