| Now on wax! Originally released in 2004, MM..Food marked Doom's first album for Minneapolis based label Rhymesayers Entertainment. Between the years of his much heralded cult classic debut and this album, Mr. Dumile preceded to give the industry a run for its money, releasing handfuls of albums under numerous aliases and on just as many labels, making fans stir-crazy to keep up and complete their collections. Yet, MM...Food, for all intent and purposes, serves as his proper sophomore album under MF Doom. Therefore, it only makes sense for the sound of the record to draw influence from its groundbreaking predecessor. His penchant for shamelessly (yet brilliantly) looped beats continues here to no end, aesthetically lifting grooves from the same proverbial record bin he made his name with. Lyrically, his signature style of non sequiturs and double entendres are bridged with only a slight of mind, and before you know it, you've reached the end. A gem indeed! | |
