Daniel Dumile nació en el año 1971,en Londres, Inglaterra, hijo de una madre trinitense y padre zimbabuense. Su familia se mudó a Long Island, New York cuando era pequeño. Es un MC y productor estadounidense de Hip Hop nacido en el Reino Unido que ha tomado varios alias durante su carrera, de los cuales MF DOOM es el más conocido.
El tema pertenece al álbum Operation: Doomsday. El álbum debut presenta densos esquemas de rimas sobre pistas compuestas a partir de un collage de R&B, muestras de dibujos animados y música de ascensor. Está bordado con una variedad de muestras y fragmentos, que van desde la serie de dibujos animados de Hanna-Barbera Fantastic Four y Scooby-Doo hasta la película de hip-hop de 1982 Wildstyle y la banda inglesa de sophisti-pop Sade. Operation: Doomsday se entrega a una tranquila balada de tormenta que evoca una sensación de pérdida, expresando suaves bucles de jazz que aportan equilibrio a los paisajes sonoros apagados.
La pretensión del concepto detrás de Operation: Doomsday es homenajear al supervillano de Marvel Comics, Dr. Doom. Una serie de terribles reveses y tragedias, culminaron con el nacimiento de un personaje villano del hip-hop enmascarado que desea gobernar el mundo por su propio bien. Además, el álbum debut presenta parodias temáticas e interludios que continúan la narrativa del cómic comenzando en la pista de apertura hasta un monólogo hablado por E. Mason junto con apariciones especiales del colectivo Monsta Island Czars de MF Doom.
LETRA:
"Hero vs. Villain (Epilogue)"
And that ended Doom's plans for world destruction
And how did you manage to stop him?
Simple, I rearranged the circuits
Once he threw the switch
My ability to attack is faster than the cobra
Very helpful
And I will be certain, not to make the same mistakes as Doom
What's the hero, who's the villain?
Dead or livin' (Doom), killed or killin'
Who the fuck should remain chillin'?
(Doom) Webster says, Wicked and evil but yo who's Webster?
Nihilation and outcast, equals freedom that's so fast
Culture in chains, that be the rolls villain plays
All these are just metaphors, they describe symbols in folklore
But who knows why it's like this?
Hero? Hit or old miss? Maybe it's all good
Really of God, but who should, determine the real
Evil, what's the deal?
Fools rush in, they don't know the Yin, from the Yang
And are ashamed to deviate, or act sane
From the norm, they are slaves, forced to conform
To really find your essence, take this as a lesson
Break away from the rest of them
Get from the form ending, like the villain in the song (Doom)
Find truth, who determines wrong
From right, without a fistfight
Different from day than from night (Operation Doomsday)
It's just a simple play on words
Delete all these punks ass herbs
Who's the hero, what's the villain?
The question still remains chillin'
Listen to the music, try very hard to use it
Open up and research, and that's the end of this verse (so like)
But y'all niggas keep y'all minds open out there
So like fuck you, fuck the newspaper, fuck all that shit man
I'm leavin' (good evening)
Yo, why you want to be leaving man?
Man don't worry about that sucker, yo man listen
Yo, I'm not gonna finish my piece man, not with this lady around man
Yo, what the fuck is this shit man?
I don't like that shit man
I don't want no fuckin pictures taken of my shit man
Yo, relax
Nah man, that shit is fucked up man, that shit can get us busted over here man
Relax man it's for the paper
Nah, nah I'm not gonna relax, I'm gettin' the fuck out of here
Look, we got a car, she's got a car parked right over there man
Let's get the fuck out of here then
Well come on let's go then
Doom wears body armor
To conceal his own mangled form, right? (Yeah)
So like fuck you
Do yourself a favor, do yourself, trust me you wouldn't believe it
