ItsJustShawnPoptart if it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t have listened to Finesse the World by Retch this morning and my workout wouldn’t have been as lit.
So I’m gonna check this guy out some more, I only heard his feature on Roc Marci’s most recent album
nice, glad you liked Finesse the World. it’ll be hard to find something grimier than that lol
but yeah this dude will be right up your alley
May 12, 2022one of my favourite rappers but he's like a pioneer of releasing too much mid-tier stuff on top of classics

hayabusanot too familiar with his discog but dr. octagon fire
lmao true
May 12, 2022dr poptart· editedKool Keith is extremely talented and that’s an understatement. I feel like he is overlooked based on his name alone. If someone heard it and didn’t know who he is or what his music sounded like, you’d probably think he’s one of those “hip hop hippity hop” type early rappers. But his music is tough as hell and he has some of the best production of the 90’s. His flow is nearly flawless in his music. Everyone acclaims DOOM, but Keith was doing DOOM’s whole thing earlier than him and did it just as well. Wanted to bring up that Danny Brown’s non-serious lyrics feel exactly like they were written by Keith. He just deserves more recognition as a talented and very entertaining rapper.
Check this song out (the thumbnail doesn’t help my case, but the song is hard) :

edit: also all Danny fans need to check this dude’s music out. you will most likely f*** with it

start with his album Dr. Octagon. he has a ton of alter egos with different styles, but the one considered his masterpiece is Dr. Octagon’s first album. it’s really creative, same exact vibe as Captain Murphy
dr octagon crazy bro

Legit can’t believe it came out in 1996

The thing is Kool Keith is already a hip hop legend off the strength of Ultramagnetic MCs.
Definitely one of the weirdest niggas ever. And i loved that. From Dr. Octagon to Spankmaster I’d say he was flawless. After that he kinda went a lil too off beat with his already off beat flow and now he’s really hit and miss.
@op you wanna talk bout funny songs?
(subject matter is so serious contrasting with this hook is one of the funniest s***s I’ve ever heard on wax)
(Prolly my fav song of his no 🧢)

Also you wanna hear a nigga just MAD? Listen to Matthew, he made that whole album as a response to feeling displeased how his label botched dr dooom and black elvis supposed to being released the same year.
The nigga was just ranting on some of these joints

He was lowkey Lil B before Lil B
May 12, 2022Might be the most simultaneously skilled and entertaining rapper in history. It's crazy how seamlessly he can go between doing some whacky characters and personas to doing hardcore and lyrical stuff without it being corny or forced. Like you can really tell that duality is his real personality.
The Ultra album with Tim Dog is hard as bricks too
