KEEP IT KOOL- THE KOOL KEITH STORY 

Saw Kool Keith perform 20 years ago and instead of throwing out CDs and T-shirt’s to the crowd he threw out juice boxes, chicken wings (in plastic sandwich bags) and porno mags. I’ll never forget that.

Kool Keith is criminally underrated.

The most original mc in HIP HOP!

Keith is doing a high wire act on that fine line between genius and insanity. The most brilliant MC to ever spit. To this day, everyone still coppin his style.

"They use the simple back and forth, the same old rhythm, that a baby can pick up and join right with them"... Describes today's commercial Rap perfectly.

Keith rules. I remember seeing him in NY around 1999-2000. He came out in his black Elvis hair and a cape, and he and his crew tossed little sandwich bags with chicken wings into the crowd. I got lucky and caught one. Most original show ever. Long live KK.

The eclectic genius of hip hop.Making records from 1984 til 2021,and still going strong.

Originality doesn't always get you paid, that's why alot rappers are not original, kool keith is not all about the money but he's about originality.

I feel like this dude is so underappreciated too many so called hiphop fans don't know who he is

This cat is way too underrated

'the longjeopardy of my career' He's a bloody genius.

Before I leave this Planet - seeing this Legend live is on my Bucket List ❤️✌🏻🔥

"I'm poppa large big shot on the east coast!"

Kool Keith is fucking cool. Also seems like a humble, chill down to earth person too.

I don't know who did this documentary. I appreciate the documentation of putting together a body of work that presents to us one of the best under appreciated MCs, and unique social personalities of all time. Before there was a DOOM or before there were OUTKASTs there was KOOL KEITH. For me he ranks as one of the TOP 10 MCs of ALL TIME!!! Ahead of his TIME a true ORIGINATOR.. Never DUPLICATOR!!

Been a fan of this guy for 20 years. Definitely one of the best.

KOOL KEITH is to RAP as SUN RA is to JAZZ!!!

People talk about Pac and Big, but this man right here is in the same league. Pure genius!

KK is not for everyone. but it is superb for many.

"You might live in Sunny Bubble Berry" CLASSIC Kool Keith awesomeness. The God.

Keith gives good metaphorical comparisons when making his point

Peace, KEITH IS UNTOUCHABLE PERIOD!!! HE GOT HIS OWN LANE.

To whoever captured this on video: If you can find Keith again, make a 3 HOUR documentary! 30 minutes is waaay to short. I can listen to Keith coming up with microwave analogies all day long. Please make this a reality!! Me and many others have so much love for this unique individual. If the world had more Kool Keith it would be a better place

This man is a genius. I wish I could meet him. Some day. Some day. Love you Keith. Where ever you may be. Beautiful soul, Sir.

KK is one of the most creative, underrated MC's of all time. One of my favorites and has been for years.

I have followed hip hop for 25 years plus and Keith is one of the only true mc's left on hip hop scene. Does what he wants when he wants ,True talent.

The Frank Zappa of rappin

I'm a Rapper and this cat has been my hero for ever no body knows him I want to thank you bro for rapping with out shit talking with out reason thanks Kool!

SUNNY BUBBLEBERRY... LMFAO! "The person doin' the beat is like.. I'm plantin' garden seeds... mowin' my lawn"

you can tell he's a really great guy.

Kool Keith is my favorite rapper

The Original Black Elvis. I feel privileged to get and appreciate KKs style and flow. One of my all time favourite artists ever. Hip hops comedian for sure.

Kool Keith singing Orphan Annie is gold!

This is as lucid an interview as I've ever seen of Keith - impressive. It's amazing how many rappers are eloquent on the mic but get tongue tied and have a hard time expressing themselves in interviews.

My favorite Alien MC...

Kool Keith is a true inspiration to any creative mind... It's like he's allergic to conformity.

I love this dude

Living legend,and rap originator

Genuinely one of the most talented rappers of all time. Absolutely incredible.

kool keith music was the soundtrack of my teenage life

The most original and unique hip hop artist, lyrically and sonically.

Kool Keith will always be an 11 year old boy. Creativity at maximum... The God of Rap

Damn I'm 30 yrs late. That was the n.y sound in it's purest form I was too young to appreciate it but that's that early 90's sound all us 80's babies to this day cry and wish was daily routine.😭😭

Harder than diamonds. Realer than ultra real. Nobody comes close. Magnetic

It was an honor to work with you guys back in the day. We were a tight unit. I still remember how warm and welcoming Cedric's mom was and how much Patrick cared about our group. The South Bronx was no joke. You guys gave us the opportunity to create a demo and perform with you and for that, ​I am forever grateful.

One of his better interviews, he actually appears motivated to explain things.

Words can't contain this Mans creativity. Or his style. One, of a kind. The best kind. For all them" Earth people". Thanks Keith, I'm a fan of 100% of your art. Priceless, BS aside. 💪🏻❤💯%

A humble and honest, intelligent man, i'm from Manchester, England i remember when i first heard four horseman it blew me away, god that was 20 yrs ago and it still sound fresh

My favorite rapper. He kept his cake and ate it too. Parodying hip hop while being his true hip hop. He's the one I keep coming back to over time.

A true genius

Keith is a legend hands down

ONE OF DA GREATEST MC OF ALL TIMES!!!!PEACE POPA LARGE!!!

"I'm Treacherous fire!" part on this. Lol! Keith has always been the dopest and very original! One sharp dude w a impressive rap history!

this is fucking legendary dude i watch this at least once a week.

Sunnybubbleberry, TX represent! I listened to this while planting seeds in my garden.

One of the most innovative Mc’’s of all time! From Critical Beatdown to Dr Octagon! A legend! “We are the Horsemen”......

From my hometown! KK is legendary. He was light years ahead of his time! Many People think they understand the history of Hip-hop.....listen to this documentary. You'll learn things.

#1 MC in the world…. #1 producer and modern Artist… #1

Kool Keith one of the greatest rappers easily most original

This cat is so good, even punkers, bootboys, and Goths loved him back in the 90s....Solid Talent!

kool keith is a emcees emcee for the real heads DOPE

Known Keith since 86. Dude was straight futuristic with his style. Cats still trying to catch up with what he was saying 30 plus years ago.

Priceless wisdom from a true creative genius.

The man the myth the legend!! Originator of a thousand faces and characters. But mostly of millions of damn good lyrix!! I was blessed to see him in Berlin with all three main characters. In a row of pure insanity and genius! Brilliant!! Much Love from Germoney

Nothing kooler than Kool Keith wearing a Detroit Red Wings hat….shout out and respect from Detroit

Kool keith is not an mc, not a poet.....He's just on top of all these occupations, He's and all-round scientific Grandmaster! No one will ever sound like him,write like him or even duplicate him because he is the one and untouchable, KEITH THORNTON!

Much more humble than KRS-one.

Kool Keith in my top 5 MCs, nobody like him or ever will be peace from Sheffield England ✌️🇬🇧

I was in Santa Barbara Ca. mid 90’s, and Tim Dog was supposed to perform and the money wasn’t right or some shit, so Tim dog didn’t go on… So Kieth showed up with a Cholo, and Got on stage and Rhymed to a beat for about 5 minutes. Well worth the ticket price.

I used to hang with kool Keith when he lived in Hollywood apartment 223 Great times!!!

Love Keith's voice. Its sooo Koool 😎

KOOL KEITH is the man! He and Ced Gee made UltraMagnetic MC's become worldwide to this day. Most Definitely influenced many MCs. His style is legendary. Me and Premier were like dope fiends when it came to Ultra. He even sought out the studio where they recorded the first Ultra album and made his first Gang Starr album there as well.

KEITH IS A RAP GOD, THE REAL LARGEST VOCAB IN HIP HOP IF YOU TAKE ALL HIS ALLIAS' INTO ACCOUNT. MOST UNDERRATED/UNDEREXPOSED RAPPER OF ALL TIME

He is awesome 😎😍

There's a cabaret singer I love. Her name is Blossom Dearie. I read in her liner notes that she is an artist that doesn't inspire much middle ground opinion. I believe this about KK. You either love him or you hate him....I subscribe to the former.

IMHO, and it is only my opinion, Kool Keith is up there as one of the greatest rappers/producers of all time. Ultramagnetics blew the competition away, and what he went on to do after that was pioneering to say the least.

-‘it’s over now’ a stone cold classic rhyme ¥¥¥¥¥

Enjoyed seeing Keith and Ultra live in Leeds a few months back in the UK after i missed his tour a few years back, when he was ripping up Scotland.

Truly the black Elvis. His lyrical forms are clouds on my brainstorm.

This is really cool! I love Kool Keith and he's got an interesting perspective cause he's always done things differently. He deserves more credit for being such a pioneer and making great music

a living legend Eminem was heavily influenced by kool Keith

Artistic,hip-hop Genius!!

KK is always on top of my playlist!! Original and fresh everytime he drops anything!! #1 to me. :::=^)

Saw this some years ago, and revisiting; what a good interview. Kool Kieth is one of the top lyricists. 🏆

The Ultramagnetic era was impeccable. Great hip hop vibe!

Kool Keith 🔥 🔥 his verse on secret fantasy with Tim Dog is classic.. Im a day one Fan ..I still remember the adrenaline rush when I heard Popa large on radio for the first time .Very unique can't touch him Facts!!

A creative brother.. He should make music for movies.

The pen is powerful

4:26 MC Ultra.. , Sanfrancisco & Harvey, 2 brothers with CHECKS 🗽🔊🎧👏🎤🎹🗽

"Going crazy & kooky as Kool Keith but, i'm actually weirder than-you-think, cause i'm".....

Kool Keith the man

I've known Keith aka Poppa Large for nearly 30 yrs... promoted & dist. many of his solo joints like "Sex Styles" & I was in San Fran. working for City Hall Dist. and met w/Kut Kurt, Q-Bert & Automator during the "Dr. Octagon" sessions... EPIC Recording (easily TOP 10 lyrics for ANY RAP concept album... Keith INVENTED so many styles; Abstract Funk w/Ultra Mags, Pornorap "Sex Styles", Impersario Flow ala Black Elvis) and he wrote ALL those lyrics like "BLUE FLOWERS" in a couple days. ILL Freestyler... and freak for the P! When I visited him w/Kut @ his Hollywood condo... he had 33 boxes of cereal, gallons of milk & his bathroom shower had dozens of used condoms stuck to walls, like gum under school desks! Dude is crazy, but like Johnny the Fox! RESPECT Dr. DOOM...Love you Mr. THORNTON aka Horseman #1. BET

Kool Keith is the Greatest extraterrestrial mc to ever visit our planet. I wonder if he ever misses his own planet.

Ultra since 80s- keith is a good man- mingled with him couple of times-humble man- God MC!

This documentary was funny, yet engaging at the same time. Those quick cuts to commercials was hilarious.

One of the true originators. Just like O.D.B. no father to his style!!!

Dude is dope! Super futuristic ahead of the times & stayed... Still original.

thank you for this. dude is no joke,,, on his own level. i hope he's still putting shit out when he's old and grey bc he is a trip

Love this whole joint but the last 10 minutes is scientific, jewel droppin, authentic wisdom from a true artist...appreciated much.

Fan since 2000 . Still on top his game
