MF Doom – Operation: Doomsday – VINYL 2LP

Description

If you’re a fan of what is collectively (and sometimes derisively) called “backpacker rap,” you’re probably familiar with Metal Face DOOM a/k/a Zev Love X; his alias as the former frontman of troubled rap group K.M.D. After their sophomore album “Black Bastards” was unceremoniously pulled from stores and group member Subroc was killed in a head-on car collision, Zev disappeared from the spotlight only to return as MF DOOM – an underground rapper whose lyrical rap identity was hidden behind a metal mask. Without this lead paragraph you might have a hard time even linking the two together. Zev was more up-tempo and politically oriented while MF DOOM is a much more ominous sounding and slower flowing rap artist. For all practical purposes they ARE two different people. The weight of the world has changed him into a different man. [ … ] rapreviews.com
