Doom the only nigga that can make a diss track about himself and make it hard as fuck

[_DL_]

It's great that DOOM will do songs with unknown people like Victor Vaughn, dudes career probably skyrocketed after this.

[dragunovful]

crazy to think he’s gone. Shit just doesnt feel right man.

[kavetta]

I’ve never been legitimately effected by a celebrity death, but MF DOOMs death really shook me. It was the first time I’ve cried about the death of a non family member

[DemonDrugHideMyDrugs]

Its crazy, when he says "Tin Head" he's referring to himself. Its rapped in the perspective of someone who had his girlfriend cheat on him with DOOM. It is a brag rap that is disguised as a song about heartbreak. He is the fancy clown. This is one of the greatest lyrically composed raps in existence.

[MORPHIUS]

I love the concept. Kids actually a man but love had him feeling like a kid again. Until the financially stable guy steps in and buys her love... These chicks trifling

[neonreign]

The lyrics to this song are underrated, it doesn't get enough recognition. Madlib and MF Doom killed the production on this album. 

[josecervantes]

In honor of MF DOOM, October 31st will be known as DOOMSDAY. Spread the message.

Edit: I only did this to gain attention, like a true villain.

[krashbenji]

RIP Doom, this doesn’t even feel real. Your music has got me through some dark times, and your music will live on forever legend.

[hg]

think about it, the whole beat was made by chopping up 2 bars of that song. pure genius

[Riccardo]

In this song, DOOM performs as Viktor Vaughn, one of the many aliases and personalities he has. Madlib handles the production. Together, they are Madvillain.Viktor Vaughn makes a phone call, and chews out a girl who’s cheated on him (ironically with DOOM), with his usual excellent lyricism.

[groovytony]

Anyone else bingeing their favourite DOOM songs? Shits crazy man, still can’t believe he’s gone.


Rip

[realmczappa]

Holy shit this is literally perfection for several reasons

1. First of all, the beat is fucking bananas by itself

2. Almost every time the chopped sample goes "---'in ---ound", DOOM lays a homophone right over it. Genius.

3. That moment when he uses the sample to complete his sentence, which is a Five Percenter reference "Power---you" = "PU" (Supreme Alphabet) = "Pussy"

4. If you listen to the lyrics closely within the context of his mythology, you'll see that Viktor is rapping about having his girl stolen by MF DOOM. This mf really rapped about stealing his girl from himself. Damn!

This song is one of the best.

[johnwitherspoon]

This song is getting me through a weird time with my wife. 6 years in and recently she cheated on me with a guy she works with. We’re still friends and hang out and I don’t know what we are doing at the moment but I know in my heart it’s not the same anymore and what we once had is long gone.

[dest]

so the girl only viewed him as a lil kid ...been there

[LuxuryLrd]

Crazy how Doom isn't even underground anymore. He's pretty well known nowadays compared to just 5 - 6 years ago.

[tylerdaimao]

I don't always listen to this but when i do i replay it 15 times...wish it was longer

[mrlevinielsen]

The sample is genius. He chops it up in a way that makes a own really cool bassline out of the original but in doing so also made a way for it to also vocally harmonize with DOOM. Hats off to Mad.

[Kodamair]

back in like 2018, i'd have this song on repeat for hours
... Rest in Power, King 💔

[MoneyFolder]

My boys warned me that you were poison like BBD's first cassette.
And still I put my chips on the worst bet.


DAMN.
