I wanna be remembered how I broke rules! "A Black monument"when these primative fools Tried to utilize pro-tools I'm like the sun in the eyes of the old-school Say fool, I stayed cool because I stayed focused All science, Like Doctor Dre, D.O.C., doctor Octagon, and doctor Dooom, so keep that hocus pocus Science can explain the biblical swarm of the locust Lyrical vocalist, spoke this, peep this, I'm always ready for a sneak diss!
i love what Ras says about the "im a hustler, not a rapper" narrative being problematic. Only issue is Jay Z is one of the guys responsible for making that narrative look "cool"
The internet is not to blame for loss of record sales, its the people misusing it. When I discovered Bad Brains on GTA IV, I actually heard the entire Bad Brains album on RU-vid before purchasing the CD online. I did the same with Black Flag Damaged. because thats how much I love it and I love buying tapes and records like I used to, internet is the only way to access music that is lost and obsure. I lost all of my tape collection from my childhood, and now I have a little collection of CDs to try to reignite that energy buying whatever I can afford, its a humble little way of self expression and reliving the golden era of music that I hold dear to my heart. Yeah its sucks records aren't as affordable as they used to be, its a niche market to actually collect records compared to the days when you could go buy them at a shop., , but it is what it is. Either way its up to the individual to decide how they choose to support the band. For defunct bands that dont even have reissues of records, the internet is the only way they can have any exposure at the moment. And theres countless amazing underground bands that have been buried in the past only to be rediscovered on RU-vid, and have some buzz going around on a global scale. So its a great blessing, as word of mouth fan following is still alive and well among those who truly care about the music. As for cringe random wannabe hipster d-bags and posers who just want to freeload and look cool to others, so they can claim to know the band with 3 songs each on their phone playlist. They can get fked. The true heads know where its at, and how to actually counter these scummy things destroying music, so it can be a positive thing if you want it to be. or not...its your personal responsibility. Best beleee dat. Peace \m/
Kool Keith is one of my favorite emcees ever! I missed Ultramagnetic but I caught on when he dropped Black Elvis the I went back to Dr. Octagon and I was hooked! He’s so unique!
Salute Bobby... My Godfather/Pops, my mentor, guru, and sensei of the industry. You taught and groomed me on all aspects of music. You are eternally Loved and Remembered. You introduced me to the Roland brand via the 808, 707, and because of that I stand by my Roland Controller with built in 808, 707, and 606 drum machines.
Kool Keith is so hands down the most creative “artist” in the truest sense of artists in HIP HOP!Keith planted the seed that went on to grow into the legend MF DOOM,the Wu Tangs & so on.Is he the greatest HIP HOP artist of all time?He has to be in the top 5 without a doubt IMO
This was a well executed interview. You were actually astounsive as an interviewer. I loved Ida before this interview, but I've grown to love her even more and respect you as an interviewer! Your work is magnificent!!!!
Don’t change. I have had people say I was weird but I wear that with a badge of honor. I don’t want to be like everybody else. We are the ones that give this world color.
