Kool Keith

An original member of New York's pioneers the Ultramagnetic MC's, "Kool" Keith Thornton is best known as a solo rapper. His signature style is stream-of-consciousness lyrical flow and complex vocals, two skills that earn him a perennial nod from the underground community. The average Kool Keith album is peppered with bizarre, disjointed, even delusional or disassociated themes, concepts, and references. Nearly all of his albums incorporate a satirical dislike for more commercialized strains of hip-hop, as well as major record labels.

The Program

1) Brooklyn bred rappers and producers Vlad and Pro are out on a mission. That mission is to spread their brand of hip hop to as many people as possible. They believe they can accomplish this goal because to simply put it, their music is bangin'. Pro, the Bed-Stuy representative has a distinctive fast pace aggressive flow. Although he originally hated his high pitch voice, he has learned to become comfortable with it and now appreciates the fact that it separates him from the rest of the pack. Vlad, the Flatbush representative is the ying to Pro's yang.

Rell

Ladies may swoon over the tough-talking city boys, but in the end what they really want is an old-fashioned southern gentleman. A man who understands the importance of chivalry-- one who'll show up on the doorstep with a dozen long-stem roses just because, or will massage her feet after a long day at work. One who'll serve her favorite dinner by candlelight, or cater to her when she's sick.
