Kool Keith - Matthew: 25th Anniversary Edition [2LP/ Ltd Ed Baby Blue Vinyl/ Numbered]

25th Anniversary (it’s first time being repressed) on limited edition vinyl packaged in an extra thick gatefold jacket with matte finish and printed lyrics inside. 

He's naked! On Matthew, Kool Keith of Ultramagnetic MCs fame removes all of the capes, masks, plastic Elvis wigs, and warped rap personas (Dr. Octagon, Dr. Dooom, Big Willy Smith) he's recorded under over the years. On "27 Shots" Keith issues a challenge to dumb groupies, dumber MCs, and Keith wannabes. Likewise, on "Baddest MC" he rants on about the lack of individuality in the music industry, dissing male rappers who are so soft they "wear leg warmers and tights." He manages to keep it somewhat surreal on "I Don't Believe You," where he flaunts his patented unconventional rhyme scheme.
