Reviews
3 out of 5 - "...Places an insightful spin on Doom's history on the rap game....the mish-mashed musical styles that MF incorporates lend a bit of variety, and the generally lo-fi production values give the album character...", Ranked #8 in Spin's 'The Top 10 Reissues Of 2011' -- "Here, he's all dense flow and revelatory mischief.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "This outside attack launched the bomb, and made MF Doom the leftfield hero that he remains today.", 6 out of 10 - "...Relaxed bass strolls and a voice that doen;t hide its sadness occupy the mix....Watch out for the spacey mix and cryptic vocal samples as well...", "The music comes at more jagged angles and Doom’s delivery is blunted and gruff. He had a clear vision of his future as Doom right from the jump, one that changed hip-hop immeasurably during his time on this planet.", "...Never has there been a more satisfying demo-quality recording....refreshingly amatuerish and experimental....masterful...", "A Thoroughly Original Début...With Witty Rhymes over Tracks Collaged from R&B and Cartoon Samples.", 8 out of 10 - "...A rambling exercise in musical therapy....the production is all mid-'80s quiet storm balladry....Doom effectively rhyming over the original musical backdrops....fulfilling KMD's mythology..."
