This nigga brought up kool Keith..
Dr octagon nigga? The spacey off beat rhyming blue flowers ninja that rocked a Elvis hairstyle? Lmao..He or ultramagnetic wasnt influential like Wu nor were their slang or philosophy deep as Wu tang's...They wasnt even that popular to popularize the alias gimmick
And even if they were influenced by ultramagnetic..guess what? Kast was STILL influenced by new York artists...
outkasts eccentric style was influenced by George Clinton and the funkadelics/jimi hendrix
Look here bruh, u said they stole the whole alter ego thing from Wu Tang, false. Did I say Kool Keith/Ultramagnetic MC's was more influential then Wu? No. I said Kast was influenced by them(who ironically if not started the alter ego thing damn sure did it WAY before Wu Tang did), don't give a shit about all the other shit u talkin. I proved my point.[/

Kool Keith didn't start switching up his aliases until 1995 with the Dr octagon album....
Look it up
"Invited onto legendary golden-era rap producer Marley Marl's In Control radio show in 1989,
Kool Keith decided to introduce himself as -- deepest of breaths -- Exotron Geiger Counter One Plus Megatron, before quickly switching it up to Exotron Geiger Counter One Gamma Plus Sequencer and commandeering the microphone to kick an a capella rhyme. (Skip to the 5:37 and 8:15 minute marks for the nomenclature shenanigans.) Poor Ced Gee, one of Keith's band-mates in Ultra, could only muster up the moniker Delta Force One by comparison."
Ok eye stand corrected about Keith..But to say DF wasnt influenced by Wu is bullshit..
Ultramagnetic was not the only influence..Outkast took old gimmicks and put their own spin on them
