"Take Me to Your Leader" is the first full-length album released by Daniel Dumile under the alias 'King Geedorah'. Regarding the album, Dumile says, cquote|You should listen to the album for what it is and not expect it to be like the average "Rap" stuff you’re probably used to. Geedorah is a space monster. He's not from the Earth. I made it different on purpose. A blend of ill lyrics and instrumentals. To me its way iller than any of the wack shit out now... This whole album is Geedorah's alien perspective on humans. This is done intentionally to show the listener a mirror image of his/herself and the way we see each other. On the album we cover different subjects ranging from race issues to the neglect of children. Some might find the word "Nigger" offensive, or the line about the young girl not being able to read maybe considered a "bad taste" joke. All these insecurities are within us.

The character is based on the three-headed gold dragon King Ghidorah, a monster who appears in the Godzilla films.
