Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Under the guise of über-mack Big Willie Keith, Kool Keith has composed an album that is so over-the-top nasty, you might want to handle it with surgical gloves. Sex Style plays like an amateur porn film, and Keith has kindly included explicit samples from adult films that bump ugly against tracks like "Don't Crush It," "Lovely Lady," and "Plastic World." Keith calls the album "pornocore," an experiment in sexual excess that more than delivers on its premise. Expect some very scratchy, woofer-shaking funk that you'll definitely want to roll with. Only problem is, even the hardest listener might feel too embarrassed to blow the nasty vocal drip from this album out of his car speakers. --Todd Levin

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the wild and crazy world of Kool Keith's .... If you're easily offended by choruses that speak on pulling the draws off girls, or representing one's own testicles, then maybe Sex Style isn't in your best interest. If you're looking for an album overflowing with "naked" lyrics, crammed with absurdity, and a dash of emcee criticism, look no further.

From the selective skits, to the enigmatic yet genius wordplay of Kool Keith, back around to Kutmaster Kurt's masterminded production, one can't help but come to the conclusion Sex Style is one hell of an album. Keith takes the listener on an epidemic journey packed with STD's, unprotected sex, pornographic stage shows, groupie festivities, and everything amid in this "Plastic World." Kutmaster Kurt doesn't give as great a show as The Automator's flawless production on Kool Keith's Dr. Octagon, or his own sinister sounds found on Kool Keith's Dr. Dooom, but Sex Style's instrumental value is nothing less than inestimable. Tracks such as Make Up Your Mind and Keep It Real define some very notable highlights of Kurt's career.

Keith's flow is similar to the one that can be found on Ultra's Big Time album, mixed with a hint of lime. Keith's lyrics are witty, the wordplay, pure genius. Patent rhymes can be found throughout the entire album, that only Keith can bring. In all honestly, Kool Keith fan or not, you can't go wrong with Sex Style.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pure Kool Keith style, right on top!, April 28, 2005

Now being a fan of Kool Keith's Dr. Octagonecologyst, you usually find it hard to put this on top of Octagonecologyst, but I just have to do it. It's real good. Awesome album. If you're a Kool Keith and you don't got this, you're missing out probably one of the biggest or the biggest itself, who knows. Kool Keith is still making albums and may just impress us over Sex Style. But, it's hard to see how he can do that if he reaaaaally rocked it and funked heads up...

Pornocore!
