Legend and pioneer Kool Moe D is planning a full return to the rap game, with a new album of studio material ready to go.

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

"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."

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

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

Moe Dee says, fans can look forward to his new album sometime in 2011. Until then, he will use the Old School Tour to keep his rapping skills sharp.

"The old school tours are fine," Moe Dee states. "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."
