It was a money thing, it seemed like that was thing that the companies wanted to capitalize on and I never started doing none of that s#, I stuck to my style.Ī: So when did things turn around and turn Zeb Love X to MF DOOM? Maybe it was because the game was changing, ‘cause we was on some experimental fun stuff like De La and Tribe was rocking, but then it started with that whole gangsta st, where you gotta be talking about some type of gat in order to catch peoples ear. But it turned out that everybody turned they back on a n*gga, it was like I was black-balled out the game, I don’t know. Around 93’ once we got off Elektra, and I lost my brother, God bless, it was like, “No deal, fine.” I was still shopping. This s t was the real dark days, but I always had a pen and a pad, just the matter of the recording was mad difficult. For a time it got real hectic, with not having a deal n*ggas is broke so we didn’t even have no equipment. MFD: We didn’t have the avenue to put music out. But under Serch’s management, they got us a deal as KMD, so we knocked out the album and the rest is on some history type s**t.Ī: There was a “dark” period after your brother passed where you quit rhyming? And at that time there wasn’t really a lot of Hip-Hop albums out, the business aspect of Hip-Hop was really just starting to set off. When he got his Def Jam deal, he was like, “Yo, you wanna do somethin’” and from there he brought me under his wing to record that “Gas Face” joint (Rhyming under the name Zev Love X.) And also at that time me and my brother Subroc had a whole album’s worth of demos, but we was just doing it for fun we wouldn’t really trying to get a deal or nothing. But it wasn’t until 8 years after that in like 90’ that I got into it professionally through MC Serch of 3rd Bass. MF Doom: I’ve been rhyming ever since I was like 12 years old, man that’s been a while, like 83’, 84’. Remember when Dorothy actually met the Wizard? Well, this time around, DOOM’s bigger than his image…see why.Ī: Bring cats up to speed on the history of MF Doom? A rhyme spitter that lurks in the shadows, only allowing the public to gaze upon him in disguise, MF DOOM not only decloaked, but unmasked himself for. Awkward and beautiful revealing and whimsical – Madvillainy was met with many classic reviews (including ) and is again proof of why MF DOOM’s unique delivery, superb lyricism, and intricately woven storylines make him one of Hip-Hop’s most intriguing MC’s. He gave you Operation: DOOMsday and Vaudeville Villain, and now MF DOOM, along with the layered production of Madlib, gives you the long awaited collaboration album, Madvillainy.
