**Hailing from Bronx, NY, International hip-hop superstar Kool Keith began his career in music with legendary hip-hop group Ultramagnetic MCs. Kool Keith is widely recognized as an innovator and skilled lyricist in hip-hop and also is widely respected throughout music circles regardless of genre. Much of Keith's crossover appeal can be directly attributed to his willingness to expand beyond the realm of conventional hip-hop collaborations and working with such artists ranging from Tom Waits to The Prodigy.
In 1996, teaming with San Francisco's legendary Dan (The Automator) Nakamura and Daly City's world famous DJ Qbert, Keith crafted a timeless hip-hop classic. Dr. Octagonecologyst.
Recording under the pseudonym of Dr.Octagon, Keith painted a picture of an entirely different galaxy and dimension in which horses roamed hospitals, women were taught to masturbate by demented doctors and being a halfsharkalligatorman is a status symbol.
Keith's 1997 masterpiece "Sex Style" gave us a view into a raunchy, pornographic world complete with cold, wet spots, white stains, curled toes and red lights and camera lenses. Considered a classic among hip-hop aficionados and perverts alike, Sex Style cements Keith's status as not only the inventor, but the master of "Pornocore" hip-hop. 1999 Keith brought Black Elvis to the people, and to this day remains one of his more memorable personas. As with most of Keith's projects, Black Elvis, Dr. Dooom, Dr. Octagon, etc. create a wave of style biters in the fly-by-night world of music entertainment. Kool Keith manages to stay four and five steps ahead boldly diving into abstract often minimalist forms of hip-hop and production.

**Blowfly (aka Clarance Reid) is the caped, masked, Original Dirty Rapper, Godfather of Hip Hop, XXX-rated Funk legend, Party Record King and The Maestro of The Miami Soul Sound.
