When I’m in the city I always keep a dutch with me” Type to just blank and don’t show much pity Sprayed like a high ranked sniper in the West Bank Getting paid like a biker with the best crank If I needed my meat burnt I’d go to Sizzler Who he not to kiss her, true she do got a blister King Geedorah: “Excuse me mister, do she got a sister The nigga that you with played like Atari now” Practice jumpshot Reggie Mil, Robert Horry now Hoes didn’t holla last year feel sorry now Got cats thinking should I stay fuck what the hood say Top down on a good day the K the I the wood way Fantastic: “A hundred things on the re-up of course I’m living fat This is most obvious over the alluring guitars and erratic drums of “Anti-Matter”: The others aren’t bad, they just can’t even begin to touch Doom’s flow, charisma, or brilliantly conceived wordplay. This is all the more evident when the plethora of guests is lined up alongside him. Rule number one: keep your fazers on stun”Įvery single line that MF Doom drops on this record is pure gold. She was as thick as they come, and taught a strict curriculum Heifer, and I had to offer her a stick of gum They need to pay her better, she had nothing on the reefer “King Geedorah, crush on his seed’s teacher Things get off to a hopeful start on “Fazers,” another one of the man’s classic vocal performances: This is more of an opportunity for his Monster Island Czars to rhyme. In all, there are only a handful of songs on which he rhymes. It contains more musical variety than “Doomsday,” and is a snapshot of just what Doom is capable of as a producer.ĭoom’s work on the boards is necessary here, because he doesn’t emerge nearly enough as a vocalist.
Aside from his debut, “Take Me to Your Leader” is his other complete non-instrumental production work.
Behind the boards, the quirky soundscapes that MF crafted for “Operation: Doomsday” are what drove the album to classic status. Under the name Metal Fingers, occasional guest shots, and two of his five solo albums, there’s also the talented producer. There are two facets to Daniel Dumile as an artist. Despite this odd decision, and the fact that he doesn’t appear that much on the mic, this album was just the beginning of his evolution towards the underground legend he is today. His first non-instrumental project after his solo debut, coming four long years after “Doomsday”, was “Take Me to Your Leader.” In retrospect, given his penchant for boasting several personalities, it is no surprise that this record was delivered under the guise of King Geedorah. Sometimes, it’s nothing tangible, just that feeling he exudes every time he picks up a mic. Ever since 99’s “Operation: Doomsday,” he has rewritten the criterion for evaluation of an artist.
Given how prolific he is, it really is astounding that he has kept his work at such a high level. One could make a compelling argument that MF Doom is the best in the world right now.
