5 Favorite MF DOOM Verses

This was a guest video for a more or less defunct channel dating back to 2014. We've slightly re-edited it to account for some technical errors and the absurdly loud white noise of early TND reviews. | R.I.P. the man, the myth, the mask-DOOM!!

My favourite DOOM line is “When he on the mic you don’t go next.” That’s it. That’s the biggest flex, the biggest power line, the most raw a rapper can get. He’s telling you that there are no other rappers that can come after him, can outperform him, or that can replace him. He cemented his legacy with that line. And in true villain fashion, he meant it and I believe it. No one can hold a candle to doom. RIP DOOM

Sad indeed. Im sure he had several classics in him left too.

[@juansakura2868]

My favorite DOOM verse is also on Doomdsday, and it says: "Definition "super-villain": a killer who love children One who is well-skilled in destruction, as well as building". Right here he shows up his dual imaginery as a Villian, he can kill and destroy, but he can love and build. It makes me remember about Bakunin, the russian anarchist who said that "The passion for destruction is a creative passion". Althou, I Think that MF DOOM isnt the villian, the industry music is the villian, he came here to fight it, but he had to learn first, he had to get profound, patient, smooth, ninja and he became a villian. People who rebel are often called "Villians" or "terrorists". There is nothing more dangerous to the power than people who told the truth. DOOM understood this, he was a strategist. Rest in Beats Forever dear MF DOOM

I have to say my favorite line by him is from "?", it's the part where he says "By candlelight, my hand will write these rhymes 'til I'm burnt out. Mostly from experience, shit that I learned about. Topics and views, generally concerned about with different ways to come up and earn clout."

[@papayer]

Questions is one track I'm glad has been garnering people's attention as of late. The beat is majestic, Kurious' feature is great and very memorable, and the whole song from a lyrical point of view is fantastic, AND MAN that last verse is powerful. DOOM reminisces about his brother, mentions he keeps a photo of him as a memento, plus the line 'everything is going according to plan, man' is genuinely heartbreaking. (I also love how it serves as a double entendre for his villain persona carrying out an evil scheme). I only wished Dead Bent got as much attention. That track has such a beautiful instrumental.
