“...no one will slice and dice you like Kool Keith. I think that’s why the line 'Do not be bougie with the facelift' on 'Blast' chills me to the bone: can you imagine how your face would look after a few hours in the operating room with Kool Keith?”
- Dangerous Minds
Watch the "short slasher movie" for the Planet B remix of Kool Keith’s “Blast”, via Dangerous Minds, here.
Under many, many monikers over the years including Dr. Octagon, Dr. Dooom, and Black Elvis, legendary Bronx-based Jupiter-born rapper Kool Keith is still spitting his eccentric thoughts decades into his career with as much flow as ever. Well-known for his lyrics focused on absurd metaphors and surreal similes, Keith's oddness aligns with continued collaborators Junkadelic Music as well as hip hop-punk amalgam Planet B, comprised of punk vocalist Justin Pearson (The Locust, Retox, Dead Cross) and double MPC-wielding Luke Henshaw (Sonido de la Frontera). After Keith’s initial guest vocals on Planet B track “Crustfund”, the duo have once again collaborated with the notorious rapper to create a blistering remix of his new track,"Blast”.
