What's the Best MF Doom Album?

[FruitOfTheVale]

Forreal though, Operation Doomsday off top because a nikka still can finish the lines YEARS later on songs I ain't rewound since a nikka was in high school. His penmanship was on a whole nother level, it sticks in your head in spite of how complex and arcane it is he mastered the balance of density and simplicity

"Only in America could you find a way to earn a healthy buck
and still keep your attitude on self destruct" the gems he had on Rhymes Like Dimes... to think we'll never hear him on the mic again He was the high watermark I strived to reach in my own bars, him and Jacka. All my idols are dead

I tried to avoid this thread cause I still can't believe he's gone, but Madvillany & MF Food

Operation Doomsday for me, followed by Madvillainy, MM Food, and Vaudeville Villain. One thing I will say about Take Me To Your Leader is it would probably be gunning for the #2 spot if DOOM rapped on all the tracks. The production on there is elite and around that time DOOM was really in a zone with his wordplay. Fazers is one of my favorite album openers ever.

Operation: Doomsday

the rhymes, beats, and skits

just the way it all fits together. like how he teases the beat for ? in the interludes, and then drops it on the last track

the Fantastic Four samples used to tell his story. it reminds when I was coming up listening to college radio, and they would play all types of crazy shyt. put a Sesame Street record over a hip hop instrumental, and make it work, type shyt

sampled fukking Scooby Doo and made an ill song

Grimm on Tick Tick

I could go on and on. shyt is a masterpiece IMO

I really like the King Geedorah album. Madvilliany as well.

i picked madvillainy but i could go for doomsday or food on any given day

 

[Killigraphy]

Madvillainy without a doubt is the greatest indie rap album of all time.

Mm...Food is goated, however, Madlib has been chasing that sound since, and never found it again.

 

[REAL6]

Just waiting on Madvillainy II to drop.

The one with Rapp Snitch Knishes, One Beer and Potholderz

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

Just waiting on Madvillainy II to drop.

Unless Madlib is going to have a Ouija board, candles and a picture of Danile Dumile. How is this going to be possible

It was finished years before he died.


The future of another Madvillain album is uncertain. "I don't know what we're gonna do with those tracks," Peanut Butter Wolf said, adding that he has permission from DOOM's manager to release them in one complete package.
