Music reviews of Project Polaroid (featuring Kool Keith)
Music Review: Two dope releases in one year? From Kool Keith? Uh-oh.
Rating: 5 Stars
Honestly, this scares me. Hardcore Keith fans know what I'm talking about; we've come to expect a steady pattern of dope album, wack album, average album, dope album, wack album, average album over the years from Keith. Dr. Octagon and Dr. Dooom were classic albums, and Diesel Truckers and Matthew, while not classics, were above average; then you had the Sex Styles and Spankmasters from his catalogue, which weren't exactly setting the world on fire. No one could doubt that Keith's one of the illest in the game, but at the same time, you knew that Keith fed his fanbase just as much Roman noodles as he did gourmet cuisines.
That's why Project Polaroid frightens me; Keith, earlier in the year, also released another dope album, Mr. Nogatco's Nogatco Rd.. I expected him to go on his traditional downward spiral in musical quality from there, but Keith pulled a complete 180, and followed up that album with one even doper. Two Kool Keith albums of such high quality released in one year is shocking, to say the very least; not because Keith doesn't have the skills to do such(believe me, he has more than enough), but just because of his crude track record.
TOMC3 is an unknown cat, to even some of the most hardcore heads; but he definitely works magic behind the boards. The production on this album is dope, and highly different from anything Keith's had to work with in the past; although he undoubtedly sounds best when paired with Dan the Automator or Kutmasta Kurt, he sounds just as at home over TOMC3's tight beats.
Keith's rhymes, and flows? Ridiculously ill. Keith manages to stay on beat throughout the album(a very rare occurence for Keith, as even on classic albums like Dr. Octagonecologyst, Keith drifted off into outerspace[literally] whilst flowing), and provides both of his distinctive forms when it comes to lyrics; the cat who's obsessed with science-fiction films, and the cat who will rip sucker emcees up whenever they approach him on the microphone.
This takes elements of Keith's classic albums from the past, and manages to mold them into a classic album in the same vein; the dark backdrop is entirely appropriate for Keith's rhymes, and the bugged-out subject matter is exactly what Keith's fans adore him for. Two dope albums in one year from the legend - could a third be on its way? Whether his next release is sublime, or subpar, it doesn't matter - Project Polaroid is a must have for fans of Keith, and hip-hop in general.
Description of Project Polaroid (featuring Kool Keith)
Project Polaroid is a collaboration of creative minds that can only be described as ?destiny?. Legendary Bronx rhymer Kool Keith (Ultramagnetic MC?s, Dr. Octagon, etc.) joins Bay Area producer TomC3 (Dopestyle 1231) for a festival of witty wordplay, high-power beats, and an all-around good time. Guest appearances by Prince Po (Organized Konfusion), Motion Man (Masters of Illusion), and Roughneck Jihad (Third Sight) add even more fuel to the fire and help shape the unique sound of an album that?s sure to become a classic. ?The music starts out dark, then develops quickly into something much more colorful.? -Edwin Land ?If rhyming is good, then these guys are great!? -MC Tamara T ?It?s funky funky noise. Plus it?s funky fresh. Project Polaroid is as funky as it wants to be. Oh, and did I say funky?? -Slither RothPop CDs
