Wow

I'd give this an 11 if I could - one of the most perfect hip-hop albums ever made, and while both artists have put out some pretty epic releases elsewhere, this is both Madlib and MF DOOM's defining achievement.

It's all good bruh

Nah, it can't be. I listened to some his stuff but his flow to me is so slow and monotonous i couldn't really appreciate his rhymes. I'm basing that on the only album ive heard from him, I don't do sht i don't go outside.

I believe this may have been the first non 'mainstream' rap album I ever heard, or at least the first that I could really get into, and it definitely opened my eyes to how much different rap could sound than what's played on the radio. Today it remains my 2nd favorite hip-hop record and is undeniably influential on the underground scene of the 00s and even to the present. I think DOOM knew they were making something special here and truly believe he went harder from start to finish than on any of his solo records.

Which one is your first?

I’m recovering from the Dunning–Kruger effect on hip hop.

His flow blows my mind tbh. Twists and turns and crazy rhyme schemes as well.

Desperate for flows, his face in a scrunch,
having a munch as he plays Lydia Lunch.

(I can understand from a technical standpoint why this is so loved, but it has never resonated with me as much as it seems to with almost everyone else here)

Listening to this again, I'm enjoying it more than the first time I listened to it but I still just don't feel the music. 5
