RIP MF Doom

[M.S.G.]

One of the more fascinating figures in hip hop history, from humble beginnings with KMD to his phenomenal reinvention as Doom.

People talk about Doomsday as his masterpiece but I truly believe that Mm.. Food is an example of musical perfection. He honed his craft and Food is just a perfect piece of music to me.

R.I.P. Doom is not enough, a true loss to the culture.

This one is stinging more than I would have imagined it would. Really sad about it.

For those who weren't familiar... his style was so unique in part because his rhyme schemes were so complex. Check this out:

I knew him from his KMD days. I had no idea he was still in the game.

Eyes pop out, Popeye, heavy on the spinach, Steady on his business and ready with an ill pitch"

He is on my GOAT list.. one of the dopest producers/ mcee of all time. i never made the connection from the KMD days until later, btw, Black B@stards is a classic, but the first time i herd a DOOM track, i was in Phat Beats in downtown Manhattan picking up records.. the in house DJ, who, might have been Ill Bill of Non Phixon fame.. played Hey!, with the skoobie doo sample... changed my life after i herd that.. copped that 12", then got Operation Dooms Day Lp after that.. @aceboon dont know what dorm you were in, but i was definitely bumping it in Eddy 6th, and Belden6th

This to me is his best song. It captures him and the comic book Doom perfectly. Plus the beat is crazy.

He was never one of my favorites but I enjoyed his stuff. Deep Fried Frenz was my favorite of his.

Damn I'm old. I didn't even know he was alive.
