i've recently been on a kool kieth jag listening to the ultra albums,octagon,big willie,sex style etc. i haven't listened to any of his stuff past octagon i think, and since he's put out a bazillion albums i want to know which ones are worth Frickin' with.

ummmm try Ultramagnetic MCs - Critical Beatdown.... Dr Octagon is good... Matthew had a couple of great tracks on it from memory...
black elvis had some moments when I was 8 years dumber
dr doom also had some fun parts but I haven't given that a spin since drunk house parties in 1999
for sure cop critical beatdown though
post octagon stuff has some tiny moments here and there. oh yeah, his global enlightenment DVD is pretty amusing. worth a netflix rental
I remember hearing an album a couple of years ago that he did with a sample based producer that I had never heard before that sounded pretty tight, anyone have an idea what that was?
Tom3c just did Saga of the simian samurai with prince po. its pretty nice too.
was dope but you allready know that
yeah, that's it...that sounded surprisingly dope from what I heard. How's that Prince Po joint?
Masters Of Illusion is incredible. Kutmasta Kurt's production and Motion Man's skills =
Matthew got some shit on there but its weird overall.
KHM - is really good
SpankMaster is a really really really good.
ClayBorne Family is real good.
Stay away from the Lost Masters stuff unless your a Head like me.
I havent heard The Commishioner stuff and Project Polaroid is alright.
The "bronx baybridge" (not sure that's the right title?) is pure ultras worth getting the lp for that track alone. Although it did come out on a 12" too...
Like other people have mentioned the cenobites is essential.
"You Live at Home With Your Mom"
"Apartment 223"
"Welfare Love"
"Neighbors Next Door"
That album is hilarious. If you are looking for
slamming beats and insightful rhyming, then, no,
this album won't do it for you - but if you want
the twisted KK humor and wordplay at it's best,
then Dr. DOOOM is worth owning.
"hello little rat......ill name you micheal....your so soft, with your furry little tail.........."
Blender sound effects....
Now it's time to hurt your feelings as I upsets music industry fan
Hey yo my man look at my hand they look human right?
You think I'm a monster ill circus clown
Not a specimen don't look at me funny when I come around
A&R been tryin to figure me out for years
Tryin to re duplicate me but they can't so they hate me
While white boys run the head of black music with a Japanese assistant
What does a Chinese kid know about the rap game? That's a shame
As I see and watch on BET
There's a million uncreative rappers tryin to be me
I'm startin to feel like Jimi Hendrix
when they covered the story who started rock
Magazines put blankets over my interviews
They don't wanna see me on channel 7 news, tellin the truth
off the project roof, they always have secret spies with eyes
Watchin me recordin my album, send in producers with wack tracks
and DAT's, messin up my whole format
Can you imagine somethin on the kneeboard with Con-Funk-Shun?
With an alternative hippie kid from the record label watchin your back
Talkin about, "Mariah Carey's funky,"
Makin the average group buckdance like a barrel full of monkies
While I break out to shoppin mall he's makin a quick phone call
about my sound is too new and different
I need to be regular like Dru Hill and a little more ill
(Hey Keith, we want you to be ill) [/b]
I don't know what I did with that record but I know I need to find a new copy.
yeah, I didn't mean to say that because it's
hilarious, it's devoid of content. It's probably
more heavy on social content than most of his stuff
from that era, but in a way that's making you laugh
too hard to really have a C&C Music Factory moment.
Girl we been through a lot
Every season I used to bug you out on the couch
For different reasons, you thought I was crazy
Catchin a Greyhound bus down South
Collectin lightning bugs and bring a dead mouse in the house
Holdin a fortune with a jar of termites
I used to blast the Delphonics in a glowing room with black lights
Colt 45 had me sportin a wig like Billy Dee
I was a Melle Mel fan, always bumpin Run-D.M.C.
We stuck together when one of my parakeets died
You broke down and cried, for the love of animals
I used to always cut the legs off a roach
See if he'll stay there on a piece of tissue
and give him a piece of toast
That morning, he would wake up and be gone
What, the insect had a ambulance?
As a little boy eatin ice cream in the cold project apartment
I used to see rats dance, my aunt used to lay down the poison
and say, "Y'all makin too much nois[/b]
