![]() ![]() This song is featured on DOOM’s debut album, which is entitled Operation: Doomsday and is a product of Fondle ‘Em Records. MF DOOM and his album are definitely in my top 10 list of all time. He has a unique flow, really good beat selection, and amazing, unrepeatable lyrics. ![]() And the two songs he sampled into Doomsday are Poetry (1987) by Boogie Down Productions and Kiss of Life (1992) by Sade. Food is a weird, amorphous album that somehow feels simultaneously dashed-off and like the culmination of everything Doom has been working toward his entire career. Beef Rap, Hoe Cakes, Rapp Snitch Knishes, Poo-Putt Platter, and Vomitspit are some of the classic MF DOOM cuts on this Mm. Despite the skits, this is one of MF DOOM’s best albums. “Doomsday” was written by DOOM alongside Pebbles the Invisible Girl, a songstress whose recording history only features a few MF DOOM tracks.Īs was his standard, MF DOOM (1971-2020) also produced the track and did so via the utilization of samples. Sure, the skits on any MF DOOM album are an essential part of the listening experience, but on this one, it’s a bit over the top. But again, all of the metaphors used throughout are intended to point to the same main ideas which have come to define rap music. And those are the vocalist’s lyrical skills, toughness and wherewithal with women. Also, as another theme throughout his career, in this song Doom expresses a particular disdain for those he deems as fake emcees. And accordingly throughout his career his lyrics, including certain junctures of this song, make references to cartoons, comic books and things of such. For instance, his collaborator on the track, Pebbles, is officially referred to as “the Invisible Girl”.
