to those of you who think DOOM is garbage, what do you think? does a cosign from Mos suddenly make you see the light?

Watched this last week. Great to see Mos feeling one of the most gifted emcees out there. Dooms got flows.

Was funny to see that we were both "Tripping off the beat kinda, dripping off the meat grinder..."

what happened to Doom?..he used to pull out a lot of mixtapes back in the days.he would put out like 5 tapes ina year...i think coz his old now?....

But yeah Doom is one of the greatest to ever touch the Mic..Cat used to kill me with his humurous lines and madeup senseless words...

Yo that was iLL! he said:

"Drop dead joints hit the whips like bird shit
They need it like a hole in they head or a third tit
Her bra smell, his card say: aw hell!
Barred from all bars and kicked out the Carvel'
Keep a cooker where the jar fell
And keep a cheap hooker that's off the hook like Ma Bell!"

HAHA! Cla**ic Doom!

u dont need to understand what doom is saying. his flow patterns and rhyme schemes are supreme

he is really not that hard to understand, I think there are words for things that some might not be familiar with, because they might not be up on the slang or certain american cultural references that might be foreign, like how many here know what Ma Bell is? unless you lived in new york, you probably wouldn't know, but Doom is really dope in my opinion.

Mos said $1,000,000,- on Doom vs. Wayne then he quoted:

"What up
To all rappers shut up! And while ya shuttin up
keep your shirt on, at least a button up
Yuck! is they rhymers or strippin males?
Outta work jerks since they shut down Chippendale's
They chippin nails, Doom... Tippin scales
Let alone the pre-orders that's counted off shippin sales"

Hahahahahahaha....

That actually made sense.
I think what is confusing to me is that he randonly switches from rhyming in 1st, 2nd & 3rd person narratives.

i'm not the biggest doom fan and i don't mind him either... mos def won't change my opinion too! like, i don't think he could murk jigga in a battle (prime jigga v prime mos) but he thinks he can so ya...

mf doom is mood music.. a pretty particular mood too!

more often than not i aint in that mood.

Question - does anyone like Immortal Technique?

Question - does anyone like Immortal Technique?

i have never disputed the fact that tech can spit.
but at the same time iv never particularly liked him. i guess he also makes "mood" music, and like you said, im never in the mood to listen to his type of music lol...
