It is one of the foundational records of underground hip-hop: a dense, sample-heavy, wildly inventive album that announced the arrival of one of rap’s most singular and influential voices. After the death of his brother and collaborator DJ Subroc and his subsequent dropping by Elektra Records, Dumile retreated from the industry entirely before re-emerging behind a metal mask as MF DOOM.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album weaves together comic book references, Fantastic Four villain samples, and some of the most verbally dexterous rapping ever committed to record. Tracks like \u003cstrong\u003e“Doomsday”\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003e“Rhymes Like Dimes”\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003e“Gas Drawls”\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003e“Dead Bent”\u003c\/strong\u003e remain touchstones of the genre. DOOM’s influence on subsequent generations of hip-hop artists — from Earl Sweatshirt to Tyler, the Creator — is incalculable. This Rhymesayers 2LP pressing is the definitive physical edition of a masterpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSide A\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Time We Faced Doom (Skit)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoomsday\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRhymes Like Dimes (feat.
