“Kool Keith — the oddball rapper and co-founder of Ultramagnetic MCs who also goes by Dr. Octagon and Black Elvis — brings his abtract kook and insanely oversexed lyrics to Reggies alongside a spread of local artists and DJs, including notables Kid Static (sans Yea Big) and Phillip Morris. Eccentricities aside, Kool Keith remains a cult-rap icon, not to mention the self-proclaimed inventor of horrorcore (see: weaker upstart division, OFWGKTA), and it would be a shame for any hip-hop head to miss out on this.” – Flavorpill
Hypnotized was one of my successful albums to date. Even though it was only released online, the amount of excitement and subsequent downloading was crazy. The last track on the album was WMSGD. Antler approached me about doing a video shortly after I moved out to Los Angeles. With our gigantic creative minds coming together, this is what happens:
March of 2010 I released a free album online called Hypnotized. October 2010, I shot the video with Francis Kmiecik and Bryan Carr. The editing is done and the effects are in. Sept. 30th at the stroke of midnight EST, I am going to ring in the Halloween month with a brand spanking new video.
The video features Milloux Suicide of Suicide Girls fame. She was awesome to work with and we have stayed friends to this day.
For behind the scened photos of the shoot, CLICK HERE. They are only visible to those who have pledged to support my next album which is being released in Spring 2012.
Open Mike Eagle, Alwayz Prolific and I have been working together for a minute now. This is a view into the hilarity that that merger brings. This is some footage from our home rehearsal of “Four Years Old”,
a track from Mike’s Art Rap After Party EP. Make sure you check out his new LP, Rappers Will Die Of Natural Causes.
Wednesday, The Hood Internet and I threw a rager at The Echo in Echo Park, Los Angeles. To everyone who came out, you rock. To everyone who missed it, you still rock, but you missed a hell of a show. I debuted a new light show, and a new song, never heard before that night. Get Dirty, a track I’ve been fighting with myself over for a while, finally saw the light of day. Its seriously the raunchiest thing I have ever put to tape. I finally let it out because I realized: Everyone has that dirty side. Ive been trying hard not to censor myself artistically and I think it has merit. And seriously, the beat just bangs.
