Legendary Rapper Kool Moe Dee Working On New Album

Legendary rapper Kool Moe is planning a full fledged return to the rap game, with a new album of studio material in the works.

Kool Moe Dee is currently on tour with Salt-N-Pepa's Legends of Hip-Hop Tour, which also features legendary rappers like Doug E. Fresh and Kurtis Blow.

"I’m getting ready to launch this whole big Kool Moe Dee extravaganza," Kool Moe Dee told The Fayetteville Observer. "I’m in the studio working on an album right now and working feverishly on the treadmill to get the weight off myself. I’m very, very meticulous about how I present and the increments I present it in."

The rapper, who is known for his membership in the pioneering Hip-Hop group The Treacherous Three, also enjoyed a successful solo career.

Kool Moe Dee recorded Hip-Hop classics like "Go See the Doctor," "Wild, Wild, West" and his 1987 hit record "How Ya Like Me Now," which came out of his legendary battle with LL Cool J.

According to Moe Dee, fans can look forward to his new album sometime this year. Until then, he will use the Old School Tour to keep his skills sharp.

"The old school tours are fine," Moe Dee said. "They get my feet wet. But from way back when, I could study the audience and feel what’s missing and feel that void. I have some great ideas. I think I’ll be really really ready by this fall."
