I'm entirely in the other camp. The beats are allright but didn't grab me,
not the way that Kool Keith's free association lyrics got me. What grabbed
me the most was in earth people "Five colors / Yellow Green Red and Black /
Purple."
Sounds just like a freestyle "Oh shit, i said five colors, i need a fifth,
uh...purple". And Biology 101: "Psychology is not applied biology / Nor is
biology applied chemistry" as if he was angry about it.

Since people's praise for the automator's Dr. Octagon drew Kool Keith to my
attention. But i'm afraid of "Sex Style" of the Ultramagnetic's "Porn Star"
is any indication.
