Given his Alma mater (Harvard and UC Berkley) he isn't that much of a Quack
However, Dr Kaku hasn't gotten any notable peer awards and accolades and im not sure he publishes papers of impressive repute.
However. He does write a lot of "easy to read books" and seems to focus on "bringing science to the public" as opposed to working hermit like in his lab.
Kind of like pop science... besides if he was really a quack, then someone in the know would publicly take him down a long time ago.
Correct me if I am wrong.
