[@notoriousvic]

Questlove: It was the Voodoo record-release party for D’Angelo [in 2000], and Mos Def showed up in his kitted-up, chauffeur-driven van with music blasting. He rolled down the window and said to me, “Yo, you gotta get in here.” I tried to convey to him that Mark Ronson and I were DJ-ing the party, but he was like, “No, man. We gotta have a discussion.” I was preparing myself for some kind of deep talk, but he just started preaching the gospel of DOOM. I’m talking a 40-minute monologue, almost something like a Jehovah’s Witness would preach, trying to convert me to a new religion. He was like, “Do you understand the majestic gift that is Operation: Doomsday?” At the time, I had been listening to it with a different set of ears. [I said] “Oh, is that Zev Love X’s project?”Before Mos turned me around, my early thoughts of Operation: Doomsday, and skimming through it, were, It’s post Wu-Tang; the loops are sloppy. Anita Baker and J.J. Fad? C’mon now … I can’t spin this in the club. My initial response was more scoff than whoa. Mos was not going to give up. He memorized that whole album like his life depended on it. He memorized it like my life depended on it. He made me listen to “Rhymes like Dimes” three times over. He was determined to convince me that it was the dopest shit out. He kept breaking it down to me until he finally planted the seed in me.

Western Civilization could learn a lot from this little explorered jewel "Rap/Hip Hop". It encompasses all that is life. The good, bad, beautiful and ugly.

Been a fan of the Villain for about 10 years now. Felt for a long time that Operation Doomsday was his 3rd or 4th best album. To be honest, they're all elite. It honestly depends on my mood.

I think that's what's so amazing about DOOM's music, there's so much detail that even if you THINK you've caught everything he was saying(or trying to say), you haven't. dude put so much time and detail into his music so we could be entertained forever.

The cool thing about this is he does an homage to rap snitches as gangstalicious. Lol

@5:15 I can’t believe I finished His sentence when he said “the closest that ever came to that abstract energy was...” I said De La and lost it when he said it too.

[@tochiRTA]

that's because you're an actual hip hop fan and anyone that really knows their shit knows that De La were abstract with it.

[@chrisshannon4814]

@@tochiRTA "cant forget the De La due to originality..." RIP PHIFE

How much I would have loved an album with DOOM and Mos.

[@djtaitai]

It looks like he can read out all the lyrics in the sky. Mos Def is special being.
