Villains aren't supposed to fit in.

My latest blog post, "The case for not having/wanting to fit in: Daniel Dumile (MF DOOM)," dives into why DOOM's unapologetic individuality is a blueprint for artistic freedom.

Let's be real: DOOM didn't give a damn about hip-hop's culture politics or chasing the mainstream. He created on his own terms, and that's why his music resonates so deeply.

Think about "Rapp Snitch Knishes." Who else would tackle self-incrimination with such a hilariously poignant parody? It's the kind of bold, fearless art that comes from refusing to conform.

DOOM's approach wasn't just about the beats (though those were fire 🔥). It was about the writing, the concepts, the sheer audacity to be himself. He showed us that true artistic value comes from creating for the sake of creation, not for accolades or trends.

"Rap snitches, tellin' all their business Sit in the court and be their own star witness…"

That playground energy, that fearless satire – that's DOOM. He reminded us that art can be both profound and playful, and that laughing at the absurd is a powerful form of commentary.

So, if you're feeling pressured to fit a mold, take a page from DOOM's book. Embrace your weird, follow your own path, and create something that's truly yours.

The New Years is kinda different with that last minute news of MF DOOM’s passing.

DOOM played a huge part in my influences. Along with Dilla, Madlib, and Pharell, they stuck to how they made music and reinnovated the industry.

R.I.P. MF DOOM

You’ll be sincerely missed 😔

Happy heavenly birthday, Daniel Dumile aka MF DOOM. I loved your lyrical complexity since I first heard you on Gas Face with 3rd Bass as Zev Live X. Made this painting years back for a MF DOOM art show in NYC while DOOM was still in this world.
