DECENT TRIP-HOP.......2006-12-08

I am a huge trip-hop fan and have literally hundreds of trip-hop CD's. This CD is better than average. One of the rappers sounds like DR' Octogon, who made one of the best trip-hop CD's EVER.

There is hope.......2006-05-20

I gave up on Keith and then... I picked up this album. I had the "Partners Confused" 12" and was impressed, but by the time this dropped I already moved on. Later on I picked this CD up on a whim and was given hope for Kool Keith.

Kutmaster Kurt takes up the production and brings his signature sound of hard drums and stabbing samples. No doubt the beats bang on this joint and Keith and Motion Man flow so naturaly over the tracks. A very solid listen and a breath of hope for the Keith fans that thought his only moment of greatness was Doc Oc and Ultra.

Motion Man soars.......2005-11-01

I'd have to say that Motion Man shines on this album, doing a lot better than Kool Keith. Keith is a classic, but in recent years he has lost track of himself. Motion Man has a better grasp of his lyrics and lyrical content; it is no surprise that my 2 favourite tracks are both Motion Man-only tracks: "Magnum Be I" and "Call the National Guard".

KutMasta Kurt is a great DJ/producer, his production is brilliant. The album also features several guest scratches/cuts by other DJs, including DJ Revolution. There are no guest verses from other emcees on this album.

Overall, 4/5 (but I'll give it a 5 just because). I'm not sure of this Amazon.com disc, but my one came with a free disc full of instrumental tracks.

Much better than I was expecting........2005-10-22

After all the crap i've been hearing from Keith latley (Analog Brothers, Dr. Octagon 2, Thee Undertakerz, Lost Masters) I pretty much lost all faith in Keith, but this record slipped right under my nose. I never even heard about it. It was on here for 4 bucks so I figured why not? Well, I was very pleasently suprised. It's obvious that when Kurt teams with Keith they can do no wrong. While it's far from being Keith's best, this album has sick flow and sick beats to back the flow. Keith and Motion both do a good job. There are quite a few weak tracks though, the best tracks are definetly "U Want Freestyle?" and "Step Up". These 2 tracks alone are worth the 4 bucks I paid. There are only like 3 songs on the album that are unlistenable. Which is pretty good considering the 20 some odd tracks that are unlistenable on all of the albums mentioned above. I do like Dr. Dooom alot better though. I compare because it is basically the same trio (Keith, Kurt, Motion) and I notice that there's a cut from "Housing Authority" from Dr. Dooom in one track. I find that any album that Keith has made before 2002 is worth a listen. If you see a Keith album that was made in 2002 and above, avoid it at all costs (except the ones done with Kurt). So that means I have one Keith album left to hear "Sex Style". Which is gonna cost me a pretty penny. Anywayz if your a fan of Keith, Kurt, Motion, or just plain hip-hop. Check this album out.

Album is second best...only to Dr.Octagon.......2005-03-01

I mean we all like Kool Keith for some reason. Whether it be for his 20 something years of rap service, Ultramagnetic M.C.s, Dr. Dooom, Dr. Octagon, Kool Keith, Matthew, Diesel Truckers, Analog Brothers...etc.etc. He has a persona that can land him any rap time. I admit that his more recent albums have been...well...plain poopy, but you can't blame the guy for trying.

I first heard of Kool Keith when my friend bought the Ultramagnetic M.C.s album, but what really got me into him was Dr. Octagon. THAT was his best. I mean that album drove me bananas. Then came Dr. Dooom, which everybody SEEMED to like, but I really didn't like it a lot. It was not bad though. I LOVED Masters of Illusion though.

It showed a Dr. Octagon(ish)type of playfulness, yet Sex Style type vulgartiy and complexity. And with the ellaborate Kut Masta Kurt on the Tables of Fables, his hands were telling more haunting stories than Stephen King. What kept this album going, was the fact tha Keith had time to wirte down good raps.

Not like what he does today. I mean he released like 4 albums last year. Who is he now? Master P jr.?

He should rekindle his Dr.Octagon days, and stir us up another K.K. concoction, that will drive us insane.

PEACE

Dope like hair juan!.......2007-04-17

This cd sounds amazing! And isnt that what good music of any genre is all about??? Kurt, Kool Keith and Motion Man are all super dope together, great vibe, inventive funny rhymes, awesome production and beats. This is what hip hop is all about!

If your into MTV/radio friendly fodder dance club hip hop, this probably isnt for you, if your looking for the real I strongly suggest hunting this disc down, a must own for any serious hip hop head.

TripHop or Is It???.......2001-08-31

This album has been heavily influnced with various Triphop/Hiphop styles.. The album says at the start that it isnt "Triphop" its Hiphop. However I disagree, it has triphop all over it. But i can understand where they are coming from, the album is purely amazing, a work of art. The closest I can compare to is to Jedi Mind Tricks, who follow a similar style by using triphop and hiphop throughout! All in all this is a top album, which should be listend to when you are blazing a reefa!

Real Hip Hop!!!.......2001-07-28

This album is tight, if you light grimy hardcore beats, kool keith and Motion man this is a must have! Kutmasta Kurt creats awsome beats that sound like a cross between the Alchemist and Dj Premier. Cop the Album!

Not just for Kool Keith fans.......2001-06-08

This single includes two of the better tracks off of the soon-to-be-classic album, including perhaps my favorite of all, "Let Me Talk To You". It's been too long since the hip-hop world had a good, funny love rap, and this one is destined to blow up the spot. Also, not to be ignored, there's the Mighty Mi remix of "Urban Legends" along for the ride to compliment the already bangin' original, featuring all new lyrics by college radio's next darling, Motion Man. Of course, the Kool Keith factor helps boost the project, but all of this is a far cry from just another Keith persona experiment, and actually outshines his recent solo efforts by a wide margin, if you ask me. Don't sleep any longer...you'll be better off for it, and you'll finally be the popular guy on your block.

Awesome beats.......2005-11-01

KutMasta Kurt crafts excellent beats; if you don't quite like the lyrics of Kool Keith or even Motion Man, you should try these beats out for size.

I got this disc free with my copy of the original Masters of Illusion LP, which I didn't buy from Amazon.
