Trip, the beats on that are really good, but I'm not sure I like Doom's style, I mean he's good, but his style is not exactly what I like to listen to. I don't dislike him, and the beats are great, so I like the album though.

I don't expect you to like him.

Totally an acquired taste...Unless you exclusively listen to rap, you probably won't like him at all - Doesn't change the fact that he is easily the most interesting character in rap, though. Hiphop NEEDS this guy, IMO...

I for one think no other emcee comes close to Doom as an all-round rapper/entertainer. His style of rapping is highly original, and perfectly tailored to his persona....I love the fact that you have to listen to a song four or five times before you fully understand what he is rapping about - Very subjective, well-crafted lyrics - Once I click with the lyrics it's like when you finally find something that was right in front of you the entire time....In other words - I'm a huge fanboy. the_finger:

i just don't like the way his rhythm doesn't fit the rhythm of the beat exactly...it's hard to describe, it's almost like Willie Nelson's singing, it's just a bit off, but it makes it interesting. And you're right about the lyrics thing.

He's pretty big, and has had a lengthy career for someone who remains in underground hiphop....Usually with an extensive career comes at least a decent amount of massive commercial success somewhere along the line.

He's one of the biggest underground acts though, one of those guys on the verge - I'm pretty sure he's doing quite well for himself simply because of the amount of content he has out, it's neverending - he does alot of work. I dunno if he'll ever truly break mainstream though, if he does, it will be with someone else, Madlib, or Dangermouse or something...

Thank you for putting Giant Panda in your sig, Im in love. You should just send me a random assortment of music trip.

Boogie Down Productions - 9mm Goes Bang

HIM - Begining of the End

"Drinkin' in the blues" - Lightnin' Hopkins (good blues and excellent harmonica)

Rage Against The Machine- In My Eyes

wonderful cover, imo.
