>One question--has a bizarre rapper like Kool Keith ever had beats that >adequately deal with his rapping style? The production on the Dr Octagon >album was great, but it seemed of a slightly diffreent mindset than >Keith's rapping, and that's why so many people seemed to like the beats, >but not his raps. I'd love to see him rap over completely freeform >arrangements--lyrical determinism, if you will. the only example i can think of is Sir Menelik's "Space Cadillac," featuring Kool Keith. That's not really a case of "lyrical determinism," but it does showcase a pretty radically different style of production than the Dr. Octagon stuff. p
