MF Doom?

but my favorite line has to be:

"More rhymin/pure diamond/tore hymen/poor timin'/raw linin/Paul Simon tourin?/I'm in!"

i'm not. I thought it was just a bunch of gay jokes followed by some batman stuff in the second verse

THE BEAT IS A BATMAN SAMPLE

Also, it's really funny to me that Vast Aire's last album had a track where he's Batman. I don't think this is intended as a Vast dis, though, since they're pretty tight as far as I know.

Listening to "Batty-Boys" again, and I'm still really uncomfortable with it. I don't sense any wink or irony it it.

Same...

You know, I think the trick is to remember that he is a character. Doom is the SUPERVILLAIN.

And villains naturally would chill in their underground lairs making gay jokes about superheroes who where tights

^^^money store

My expectations were way too high for this album.. oh well. I still like it, but I thought he was capable of the OK Computer of hiphop... whatever that's supposed to mean..

Vast Aire feat. Geechie Suede - The Dynamic Duo

listening to Goodie Mob right now, and Khujo - as usual - is much more poisonous and offensive than doom ever was in homophobia. And he's not even funny!

little confused by the Doom profile in the New Yorker this week. i mean, if you're gonna do something on Doom, why now? ok, so you can bitch about the current state of rap... but again, is Doom really the right stand in for the "Golden Era." very confusing.

i love Doom and the New Yorker but they should really stick to shit like this http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2009/09/07/090907fa_fact_grann?yrail

There are a couple funny parts though - Doom driving around LA (or being driven around by his driver who's named after the robot from Short Circuit) getting drunk instead of going to the studio and trying to write a rap about the chimp who killed his owner from the chimps perspective.

Also, excited to hear work's finally being done on another colab w/ Madlib.

Not a subscriber, so I only see an abstract at the moment. Sad, I'd like to read it.

I've had the "Rapp Snitch Knishes" beat in my head all day

what ever happened to Mr. Fantastik?

doo doodoo
doo doodoo
dee deedlydeedly
deeedly doo doo deedly

xpost And does he rap under another alias? Needs to put out his own album.

& has anyone heard the Gigan EP? And did Hassan Chop record anything worth hearing after this?

yeh i got the EP on the strength of krazy world. it's excellent NY headbusting shit but not as singular as u might expect. he loses that out the side of the mouth flow coming aggie.

holy moly. listening to the king geedorah album now. last track, 'the fine print' is great.

i think king geedorah is my favourite mf

doomsday is best but yeah geedorah & madvillain are both dope imo

I should give that another listen. when it came out I was too burnt out on MF and thought there were too many tracks that were just Monster Island Czars and no Doom.

New album 'Keys To The Kuffs' is streaming here!

Pretty sick stuff, "Winter Blues", live on Radio 4 of all places -

Yeah I heard that. My brain couldn't really cope with Clive Anderson interviewing DOOM.

yeah it is kind of adorable, clive's voice makes me think of like the 50s or something - "and uh, mr presley you'll be singing something about blue shoes, is that right?"

yeah that's lovely, the instrumentation especially. psyched to hear this, & the beth gibbons jam, though his flow's seemed kinda graceless for the last while.

i',m hoping this is better than his last release.

really not feelin this

o well he has so much other great material

i don't know, jneiro jntel has never impressed me (second rate prefuse / ammoncontact copyists?)

and it's hard to imagine doom flowing well over LA stoner spiritual jazz dude beats (ie the bellflower thing, not madlib)

it would be like doom over flying lotus or something. nuh uh.

BITE THE THONG

This is interesting. I kinda like it.

no guts, no glory, what's your story?
bore me poorly, ??????
enough for coffee
rarely, scarcely, scary, glare-y, stare
let's be very clear, emcees is derriere
as well as aware, wearily
just don't be nearly near, you hear me?
YEEEEEAH

that's a ridiculous stretch. vintage doom

is there any way in which Madlib is not "LA stoner spiritual jazz dude beats"?!

yeah he's that but he's also like 10 other things

terrible kool-aid suppin' paragraph in a guardian profile

Doom's music has always been murky, his samples dusty from all those crates, his voice gruff, his raps torrential bursts of elliptical wordplay too dense and jerkily delivered to be described as "flow", but it's not as forbidding as the metal face suggests. People, he says, miss the humour in his work, and the delight in mischief-making. A couple of years ago, he allegedly sent "fake" Dooms to perform on his behalf at gigs. Even the hardcore faithful were incensed, when really it was an inspired device designed to subvert the notion of rap ego.

o i c

well poor word choice but i think it's much more slack than the beats on past mf doom and madlib things, less hectic, more stretched out than doom's herbs and spices or madlib's hectic beat collage

when really it was an inspired device designed to subvert the notion of rap ego.

no they were doombots you fuckspasm, the clue's in the name, and the mask, and the hood, and the album art, and the name

or he's just a lazy cunt

could be

ffs why make me load a player, then check a box saying I'm over 16, then make me choose whether or not to apply a parental lock to the website, then reload the page, make me REload it again, and THEN tell me the media is not available in my area?

YSI?

wait
