About this product
Kool Keith has long been hailed as hip-hop's greatest eccentric. Over the course of a career stretching back to the mid-'80s, he's perfected a singular style of abstract yet deadly precise rhyming that often focuses on subjects such as science fiction, hardcore pornography, and a distrust for the music industry. His sprawling discography includes numerous collaborations and aliases, with some of the most acclaimed including Dr. Octagon and Dr. Dooom, Black Elvis & Tashan Dorrsett. He began his career as the mind and mouth behind the Bronx-based Ultramagnetic MC's, whose influential debut, Critical Beatdown, was released in 1988. Following the of the band's third album in 1993, Keith headed for the outer reaches of the stratosphere with a variety of solo projects. His lyrical thematics remained as free-flowing as they ever were with the N.Y.C. trio, connecting up complex meters with fierce, layers-deep metaphors and veiled criticisms of those who Inchwater down the sound that comes from the ghettoInch. Keith's latest LP InchMr. ControllerInch entirely produced by Junkaz Lou is yet another work of art. No MC on the planet is so grimy and yet so polished - after years in the rap game, Kool Keith's as unique as ever.

If there's a secret to time travel, Kool Keith owns the patent. Even a flying DeLorean seems too conventional for the Bronx legend. He'd more logically orbit throughout the galaxy in a gleaming chrome spaceship, teaching the stars and aliens new forms of originality. He is too weird to live, too rare to die, too uniquely ultra-magnetic to be accurately mimicked.Released on Mello Music Group, Time? Astonishing! Is the latest dimensional warp from hip-hop's premiere astral traveler. His union with MMG producer L' Orange finds him exploring uncharted terrain choppy volcanic rock planets, ice glacier moons, new surgical procedures, and fresh rappers to toss into the ether. The scalpel remains eternally sharp.The beats glow with radioactive grit. Hard enough to knock from your car speakers, cinematic and plutonium-propelled enough to transport you to strange terra firma. Buck Rodgers movie serials meet boom-bap. And along for the odyssey are a cast of the best underground MC's of the last decade Blu, Open Mike Eagle, Mr. Lif, J-Live, and more.These are space symphonies and occult odysseys, fuel for wanderers, wonderers, and all the a-likes.Welcome to the new world, even more sinister and suspenseful than the last one. We live in astonishing times abstract, absurd, and indelibly Kool.1. Time? Astonishing!2. The Traveler (feat. J-Live)3. The Green Ray4. Twenty Fifty Three (feat. Mr. Lif)5.

Kool Keith is established as one of hip hop's best MC writers in the stream-of-consciousness style that spawned rappers like MF Doom and Sadat X.
