why dont people talk about kool keith as one of the best rappers of all time?
>>71550475
because hes black
>>71550475
he makes rap for white indie fans
Johnny 5 did in S.P.A.R.

Not really

Cause deep down, most people are plebs, especially the ones who try really hard not to be.
Sometimes they do. Seems like people talked about him more in the 2000s.

Even /mu/ can barely keep a kool keith thread going, He does everything right, has plenty of talking points but for some reason "isn't"
His aesthetic just doesn't gel with what's going on right now, its too quriky, lively, intelligent and colorful. Compare that to the soundcloud rappers or whatever. It'll come back around eventually. I remember listening to lots of Dr. Octagon around 2010-11 and people were digging it.

He's great and was ahead of his time but he's inconsistent in his quality of stuff. Plus Dr.Octagon is when he peaked and not everyone will like that album right away. Doesnt help he's past 50 and nobody remembers ultra magnetic mc's

People do, just probably not the people you are reading
