[POSTPONED: May 29, 2021] Kool Keith [rescheduled from May 29, 2021]
Johnny Brenda’s has pretty much cancelled everything on their spring calendar. This show is listed as postponed, which always makes me feel a little bit better–like there’s a light at the end of the tunnel.
Kool Keith is a wacko alternative rapper. I really liked him a lot back in the 1990s. He was part of the Ultramagnetic MC’s and Dr. Octagon. he also had the alias Black Elvis.
I had more or less forgotten about him and didn’t realize that he was still making music, but he has been consistently releasing music since the 1990s.
A lot of his music is aggressively, explicitly, sometimes disturbingly sexual (Dr. Octagonecologyst, anyone?) which was once amusing but feels really wrong now.
I didn’t really know about this show until it was cancelled and I’m not sure that I’d actually want to go (I had a few other shows I was more interested in that night). I’ve also heard mixed things about Keith live, but I feel like it would be a fun experience. The postponed date is a year away–we’ll see.
