Bronx-born rapper Kool Keith has celebrated a more tumultuous career than perhaps any other rapper as prolific as he is, riding career ups and downs that have included stints on major labels and incarceration in mental facilities. But there's no mistaking the former Ultramagnetic MCs frontman in terms of his influence on underground hip-hop. Returning to the personality he co-created in 1996 (with original collaborator Dan "The Automator" Nakamura nowhere to be found), Keith presents the long-awaited second Dr. Octagon album, largely with long-time producer and DJ Kut Masta Kurt.

And with the barrage of different albums he's released in the interim, THE RETURN OF DR. OCTAGON delivers, as promised, a wholly new chapter in the saga of Keith's career. Relying on largely digital production, jumpy backing tracks, and a futuristic vibe that runs common through most of his work, Keith torches other MCs on tracks like "Al Green," "Eat It" (featuring Princess Superstar), and "Ants" (with guest scratching by the Avalanches' DJ Dexter). With seemingly no effort at all, Keith reminds us all that the doctor is, once again, in the house.

Dr. Octagon: Kool Keith.

Audio Mixers: One Watt Sun; Francois Tetaz.

Photographer: Michael Tullberg.

Additional personnel: DJ Dexter (scratches); April McClellan, Princess Superstar.Rolling Stone (p.102) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[F]uturistic beatscapes with psychedelic soul...[and] rocking electrofunk....When he bears down he can be mesmerizing, channeling his quick-tongued rhymes with streetwise brassiness..."
Spin (p.76) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Over mutating electro beats, courtesy of a Berlin production crew that references country and two-turntable old school, Keith waxes episodic..."
The Wire (p.44) - "[He] taps environmental subjects on 'Trees' and 'Ants'....Inspired..."
CMJ (p.4) - "Doc Oc returns to spit his free-association flow over electro-tinged robo-crunk."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.100) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]here's just enough twisted wit among the non sequiturs to redeem this controversial release."

3 stars The return or is it?
Homo beats is the best description I can give. I wanna like the synthetic analogish beats but they just have too much CHEESE to them. Lyrics are dope as all hell, the one and only element Keith was involved with in the makeing of this wanna be octo album.

1 star This is crap
I didn't even want to give it 1 star. This is horrible. I think there's one good song on this album and even that is debatable. This isn't Keith's work, do NOT buy this album. You'll be supporting bootleggers and thieves most likely if you do. It sucks horrendously anyway.

1 star the best thing is the skits
the only parts that are actually 100% entertaining is the skits when dr. octagon is being himself. i REALLY dont think kool keith would want his vocals cut up like that. and placed where ever to fit some crappy techno beat. dont get me wrong. synth-rap or whatever you want to call it has a future, but it has to be done right. and this album was done wrong. the beats don't flow as much as they should. and you can tell they want you to focus on "that cool electro beat" rather than the rhymes. which is garbage and not hip hop oriented. kool keith himself does not endorse this album. which should tell you plenty. the real return of dr. octagon he will put out i hope soon.

1 star this is not keith
Keith does not support this album-and you should'nt. You can tell from just seconds of listening that keith had nothin' to do with the homo music on this waste of plastic! Don't buy this! If you do then your supporting terrorism!

5 stars Way better than good.
Only problem is short. If it had 3 more songs as good as the best ones then it'd be perfect. I love the fact that it has an electro-synth kinda thing going on. Much more exciting than a bunch of squelchy, downbeat loops. And the songs actualy have, like, structure and changes instead of just being one 4-bar loop with a lame scratch for a chorus. Nice to see there are still people who care enough to put some time into a record. Does anyone know when the Kutmasta Kurt remix of 'Ants' is coming out?
