WHEN CONVERSATION TURNS TO HIP HOP SOMEONE ALWAYS ASKS, "ROC WHO DO YOU LISTEN TO?" MY ANSWER IS ALWAYS THE SAME: MF. DOOM. THIS GUY IS A THROWBACK TO AN EARLIER ERA. A TIME WHEN BEATS WERE HARD, LYRICS WERE THOUGHT OUT AND CONCEPTS WERE FRESH. HE WEARS A MASK AND RAPS WITH A SPEECH IMPEDIMENT YET HE STILL LOOKS AND SOUNDS WAY BETTER THAN MOST OF THE DUDES OUT TODAY. I JUDGE HIP HOP FANS ONE WAY: THOSE THAT KNOW ABOUT DOOM AND THOSE THAT DON'T. I REALLY WANT HIM TO BLOW UP BUT THEN AGAIN SOMETIMES I DON'T BECAUSE TO BLOW UP IN TODAY'S MARKETPLACE YOU HAVE TO MAKE MINDLESS SONGS (ABOUT LOLLIPOPS) MAKE SOMEONE DANCE (CRANK DAT) OR SING INTO A MACHINE THAT MASKS YOUR NON TALENT (T - PAIN ANYONE?) LONG LIVE VICTOR VAUGHN, KING GEEDORAH, MF DOOM. HIS MUSIC IS ABOVE ALL OTHERS.

...and as I'm reading this, Coffin Nails plays in the background. But are you going to do an installment where you talk about Hall & Oates is the real question.
This video is dope but personally, I swear I think MF DOOM is tha wackest. I didn't like him when he was Zev-Luv X but I like the fact that he exists. Its good for him hop and it is different. Tha emcee in me though just cant get past his flow.
Good post though
