"is KMD's Mr. Hood a classic?"
Thu Apr-12-12 05:04 PM by ABROCK33

  

          

I know its relativley obscure and rarely gets brought up along w the heavyweights of the era

its hardly even mentioned in the context of Dooms own discography; almost as if his career started w Op Doomsday

for those that have followed Doom since the begining you can see how his style developed over the course of years of practice

his ear for the eccentric began here

the way the Mr Hood charachter dialogue was chopped up to resemble actual conversation and was interwoven as a sequway into the songs was genuis IMHO

Mr Hood wasnt just a skit for skits sake he actually tied the album together

a slightly ignorant man who wandered into KMD's LI world and interacts w the black youth

he was actually makeing a statement while being entertaining

the rhymes were thoughtfull and intelligent

its a lyricaly "dense" lp

to those whove heard it and digested it and realy analyzed it what do u think?

"Good hair"-Uzi

1619 the 1st slaves are brought to American shores
thus begins the phrase “mine is better than yours?” (huh?)
forced to serve-too broke to by freedom
the systematic rape of African culture has begun
little time
