DOOM Interview on HHDX
DOOM (he recently dropped the Metal Fingerz) is one of the most creative cats in music period, and he has a lot of interesting things to say on the rare occasion he gives an interview. Aside from some hating last summer by a DJ who rocks with a group who was never all that good to begin with, he’s keeping heads happy. I tend to agree with what he says about his “impostors” and he goes into further detail HERE.
DOOM, your reputation preceeds you.
Music I Dream of Hearing!
I was on HHDX this week, and a writer there had an article breaking down a bit of Mainstream Hip-Hop’s love affair with the underground. And then I got to thinking, and then I got to drinking, and then I got to crying, now my self esteem is sinking. But anyway, What would be some collabs I’d pay top dollar to hear? I’m listing a few and Why!
#1 Kanye West and MF DOOM
Imagine this. Two of the heaviest samplers around, and my top two producers on the mic, on just one track, let alone an album! Kanye has a penchant for witty, sometimes intentionally corny, but self assured charismatic lines and songs, While Metalface is known for his ramble-esque, stream of conscious, obscurely referenced no-two-joints-are-ever-alike style. Splitting productin down the middle, or, hell, even co-producing every track (it could only be 12 tracks, no more, no less) Would almost certainly make for an album one part raw, one part flashy, eleventy billion parts Classic Hip-Hop.
DOOMED – New MF Mixtape.
I’ve been waiting on this for a minute now, and breifly forgot about it until my boy reminded me it had dropped. Needless to say, being the metal fingers fan that I am, I’m all over it like white on rice. Peep the artwork, and download it at THIS link.
