Fellow hip-hop fans,
(heh, I just ostracised like 90% of forum membership )
MF Doom's work was recommended to me by some of the folks here, and this thread serves partly as a notice of gratitude. I picked up the Madvillain album a couple of months ago and like it. I'm getting into the trippy, mind-fucking rap style, especially when accompanied with these weird concept lyrics. I don't think I'm as crazy about it as others, through.
However, I just got the Viktor Vaughn album and I absolutely love it! Here MF Doom works with a couple of producers and it all sounds so fresh. I love the lyrics: how many other MCs would dedicate a whole verse to Star Trek references? His mushed delivery takes a bit of getting used to, but it's totally part of the charm and character of the music. The sounds are great- sometimes lush, sometimes sparse, and all perfectly fitting. This album is exactly what I'm looking for in hip-hop.
I must seek out Operation Doomsday...
