No longer a cartoon, the cat finds a home at the Current
In Peter Scholtes' excellent history of Twin Cities hip-hop, the story of Derrick "Delite" Stevens is detailed, from his days as Kid Delite to MC Skat Kat. Still, it seems that MC Skat Kat's real identity has eluded most fans for years, as illustrator Michael Patterson has been mistakenly credited as the voice behind Abdul's feline friend. Now that the, ummmm, cat's outta the bag, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that some day I'll hear Skat Kat's "I Ain't No Kitty" sandwiched between songs by Sufjan Stevens and Sleater-Kinney.
