Ghost and DOOM go together like Wallabees and Slick Rick jewels. The latest video "Raygun" off the Ghostface x BadBadNotGood album is dipped in Blaxploitation bliss.
Art by Kmeron It’s been a decade since Madvillain, which I already spent 16 years of my life lionizing earlier this summer. Less remembered is this live show that DOOM did that January at San Francisco’s DNA Lounge. It eventually found it’s way to outside oxygen, courtesy of Nature Sound’s, Live From Planet X. The […]

Eric Thurm would like a snack “Darkness,” the first released track from the NehruvianDOOM EP, was straight garbage. Nehru’s flow was as unoriginal as DOOM’s Special Herbs-jacking production, and the whole thing stunk of a cash-in, DOOM just putting his name on another project because he could pull it off without having to do any […]
Eric Thurm still kinda likes Key To The Kuffs. DOOM and Bishop Nehru dropping “Darkness,” the first track and visual from their collaborative album NehruvianDOOM, should have been an exciting moment for fans who’ve been waiting for new material from the masked villain like stoned pilgrims.

He subscribes to the theory that intense repetition compromises the authenticity of a theatrical performance; that practice, does not in fact, always make perfect. In […]
Father’s day jams can come in August. DOOM, the Captain, the Sweatshirt, and the Thundercat recording in an animated telephone recording booth. If Quasimoto was there, you could have an all-time starting five. This was recorded for the Adult Swim Singles series and makes me wonder what the process is before they start recording. Does […]
Chris Daly is smoking Optimos in Orlando. Enter Cole Williams aka The Child of Lov, a 25-year-old Dutch musician whose age and location belie a musical kinship with everyone from George Clinton to D’Angelo. With his eponymous LP out now on either Double Six Records or Domino Records depending on which side of the pond […]
On paper, the pairing of MF DOOM and Clams Casino should produce the proper blend of special herbs. The former is the Supervillain enigma supposedly stranded in Europe for the last several years. The latter makes music ostensibly designed to soundtrack peat bog ceremonies for the dead (conducted by the Based God). The knock on […]
