Yeah I know its a bit late but I know some of you are still needing it. Amongst more controversy than I know what to do with the new Doom album dropped a while back. If you haven't been following since his last album Doom has been doing nothing but making enemies. A riff with long time friend and collaborator M.F. Grimm, Going on the record as a staunch McCain supporter and Obama antagonist, skipping almost every show scheduled, and even going so far as to send a guy dressed in his mask to his SF and LA dates to mouth his rhymes. Not a good start; and then the album. The First few listens offered no help. Doom rhymes over Dilla beats that have already been done by a handful of cats and even reissues a song off a 2006 Nature Sounds comp -which only makes me more angry that, that MF X Ghost colabo it seems will never come -. To say the least I was starting to hate this fucking guy. That's when it all clicked. This is Doom the performance artist. Doom the nutbag genius. This is his evil plan. Doom is the heel of hip-hop. Doom is a true villian, and once you accept that you are no longer aloud to like Doom, you will once again love his music. The Beat selections on this album are KILLER thanks in most to hometown hero Jake One. Doom's rhymes are aggressive when they need to be, and whimsical when not. The album has continuity, style and ambiance. This is not just rap; this is art. Link below
