The masked madman returns to form on a sketchy, film-sampling beat from Jneiro Jarel.
The elusive DOOM (formerly MF DOOM) is a singular figure in alternative hip-hop, coupling a seemingly stream-of-consciousness absurdity with an old-school approach to rapping. Hip-hop artist Jneiro Jarel’s abstract style is reminiscent of DOOM’s own production: his record-skipping tapestries are perfect for DOOM to unleash barbs like “conquer and destroy the rap world like the white man,” as he does on ‘Guv’nor.’
The eagerly awaited Key To The Kuffs is out on August 20 via Lex Records, and features Portishead’s Beth Gibbons, Blur’s Damon Albarn, and Khujo Goodie.
