“Player. Pimp. Handyman. Hardass. Actor Yaphet Kotto has deployed his unmistakably gritty voice and leonine countenance in all these guises over the course of a career that consists of more than 40 films.”
Rhazel of the Roots, Prince Paul, The Automator, DJ Scribble at House of Blues (LA Weekly, 7/1/1999)
“On the cusp of forthcoming solo projects, Rhazel isolated at the mic offers endless possibilities.”
