MF Doom Tracks Off the New Album + Tracklisting

Yo. If you know the slightest about me, you know I am a huge MF Doom fan. From my Yahoo screen name (mf_killah = MF Doom x Ghostface Killah), to the name I used when I use to remix tracks & DJ (DJ Mask On Crooked). Doom's production, flow, and lyrics... place him in my top 5 MC's alive today. Very underrated as both a producer and as a rapper.

Doom is dropping his new album, Born Like This, sometime in Spring. So far I have heard 4 tracks off the album and they sound dope. Will have appearances by artists like Raekwon, Ghost Face Killah, and Curious just to name a few. Will also have production by Jake One, J Dilla (R.I.P.), and I am sure Doom himself. Sources say expect doom to drop more releases here in 2009!

On a side note, this year MF Doom is set to DROP the "MF" prefix (which stood for Metal Fingerz when he produced tracks, and Metal Face in general) and just be known as DOOM from this point on (yes, ALL CAPS). Makes me wonder if it had anything to do with his falling out with MF Grimm.

I never quite understood the beef between the two. I just knew they were real close friends and all of the sudden I hear Doom dissing M.I.C. (Monsta Island Czars) , a rap group that included him and Grimm, on a track he did with Danger Mouse (collectively known as Danger Doom) for Adult Swim calling them Midgets Into Crunk. After that, I heard MF Grimm and the M.I.C dissing him saying he betrayed them and moved to Atlanta, GA.

01. Supervillain Intro
