The Ultramagnetic MCs is an American hip hop group based in the Bronx, New York City.[1] Founded by Kool Keith, the group also includes Ced Gee, TR Love, and Moe Love.[2] Tim Dog became an unofficial member in 1989. In 1990, DJ Jaycee was added as a road manager and backup DJ. Big.D was put down with the crew by Kool Keith in 1989. A former member, Rooney Roon, was fired following an assault arrest. Beat-boxer Rahzel was also involved with the group early in its career. The group's work was associated with unorthodox sampling, polysyllabic rhymes, and bizarre lyrical imagery.
