An original member of New York's new-school pioneers the Ultramagnetic MC's, "Kool" Keith Thornton is best known as a solo rapper. His signature style is stream-of-consciousness lyrical flow and complex vocals, two skills that earn him a perennial nod from the underground hip-hop community.

The pop-up Vans skatepark/music venue showed up in Toronto as a celebratory hub for Vans’ 50th anniversary of being at the forefront of not only freestyle boarding and biking but also the cultures that surround it.
And the stakes are raised when the crowd is composed at best of 20 percent fans and the rest regulars of Randomland Fridaze the usual club event for that night at Circa.
I'm sure the occasional burst of pepper spray didn't help but Kool Keith was more than an hour late hitting the stage and there wasn't even the common courtesy of an opening act to entertain the crowd.
