Honestly, it doesn't even feel like there's a proper way to elegize an eccentric and extremely talented artist such as MF DOOM, who meant so much to so many of us for so many years for so many different reasons as truly unique as DOOM himself. So, what better way to pay tribute to The Man, The Myth, THE MASK himself than by speaking to those closest to him? With a heavy heart, I proudly present Shadows of Tomorrow; a new recurring column in tribute to DOOM in an effort to re-tell the tall tales, strange stories, and lesser-known tidbits of The Metal Face Villain himself. R.I.P. Daniel "MF DOOM" Dumile Thompson.


"Today is the day I finally get to share my visual album, DARK SIDE OF THE DOOM ([Pink] Floyd samples, DOOM bars) with you all. Pink Floyd & DOOM are two artists that have followed me around from when I was just a 10-year-old in 5th grade all the way to now (22 years of age.) I thought of this idea to immortalize my two favorite artists together through a project about three years ago and all the time trying, failing, and succeeding has led up to this moment. I can gladly scream from the mountains that this is the most proud of a project I have ever been and is something that I hope you all enjoy listening to/watching as much as I did while crafting it. I believe anyone could find a lot of joy in this, whether it be Hip-Hop heads, DOOMbots, [Pink] Floyd fans, or just people who enjoy interesting and experimental art. Much love and I hope you enjoy it. DOOM, this one's for you, man. R.I.P. MF DOOM. R.I.P. SYD BARRETT. R.I.P. RICHARD WRIGHT. LONG LIVE DOOM AND PINK FLOYD."
