Kool Keith

Hip hop oddity and favorite Kool Keith will play 285 Kent on Saturday (8/13), a rare appearance that will also feature Spanish Broads (a Das Racist noise set), New Optimism (Miho of Cibo Matto), Nine 11 Thesaurus, and DJ Marty McSorely. Tickets are on sale, as well as available at Desert Island Bookstore.

Kool Keith will join up with Ultramagnetic MCs to play ATP New Jersey in late September.

Das Racist have two upcoming NYC dates before they hit the road, August 27th at Brooklyn's Commodore Barry Park as part of the Afro-Punk Fest and at Bowery Ballroom on 9/12. The 8/27 show is free, and tickets for Bowery Ballroom are still available.

More show details and the Brooklyn show flyer is below.

I saw him earlier this year. There were three different stretches in the show where he just did a bunch of different choruses back to back--maybe 12 different ones each set, each done one time--it was very strange and quite awesome.

would love if he'd get a solo slot at ATP as well...

Here's hoping he'll actually show up and play. I remember hearing of more than a few instances where he and his crew have shown up, collected their cash and bailed. Bad like MF Doom squared bad.

5:06: That sounds pretty damn cool actually!

Sounds like there's a clamoring for a Dr. Octogonecologyst Do Look Back set. Hear that ATP? Make up for the stateside suck that this festival has become.

Posted by Anonymous | August 10, 2011 6:08 PM

he couldnt hold Doom's dong

@ 6:17

Cuz everyone knows MF Doom is fake!!!

kool keith is the shit, but the rest of this lineup is maddening. the "music" it seems like you would hear would be full of douche chills.

I heard Frohawk shorted 15,000 shares of stock today.

I love it when little dipshits like 8:59, do these little feeble attempts that fail miserably, just like life!

Posted by Anonymous | August 11, 2011 12:03 AM

Has 285 ever had a $20 at the door show? Being that Dr. Octagon SHOULD draw a crowd, this show might be the test to see if 285 can handle a performer of his popularity and price.

Kool Keith is by far the worst live act I've ever seen. He played a half hour mashup of a bunch of his songs and fucked up half the verses and that was it.

Posted by Anonymous | August 13, 2011 7:00 PM

7:00, He is probably better than Kesha.

Posted by Anonymous | August 13, 2011 8:19 PM

he played a 72 minute lineup that completely killed it!
