It's less crazy once you realize how badly the Booth is impressionable.

If Doom was the one with a new project (Madlib or otherwise), they'd be on his dikk :manny:

Truth

also doom hasnt really cared in a long time ...

got deported and buried his son , he hasnt had his heart in it ...


but the mans a legend who survived like 30 years in the game


I just wish he would put out that DoomStarks album.

DOOM.

Gibbs is a one trick pony. Street tales ad nauseum over dope beats. Breh needs to work on his enunciation too -- after a while his songs sounds like constant mumbling. Gibbs is dope, but what memorable verses/bars does Gibbs have?

DOOM has him on creativity, bars, double entrendres, humor, subject matter. It's not even close. The only cons I can think of regarding DOOM is that he's not as active and his flow is an acquired taste.

But if you can get over both those things, you'll clearly see that DOOM is the better emcee.

i don't want to be the guy that looks like i'm always shytting on Freddie like that when i like him but he's overrated on here.

his versatility and how good he sounds covers up that he's not that nice as people think he is/want him to be.
he got some nice throw away lines but his bars not sticking to you like that.

the two biggest take aways from the album have been
that Pusha T verse and Madlibs greatness, enhanced with the revelation that he did the beats on the album on his ipad.

:yeshrug:

Doom tends to get overrated in some regards too but Doom in his prime nicer with the pen that Gibbs.

My opinion might not hold as much weight because it took me a few years to get into Doom. Like, I checked Operation Doomsday but Doom didn't really like for me until Madvillainy.

At this point in time? Yeah I think Gibbs is better. The last few Doom joints I've heard have been cool but nothing mind blowing. Doom in his prime? I'd have to think about that. Honestly I'm not trying to cop out but they're so different I have a hard time comparing them. I'll just say right now I'd rather hear Montana than Madvillainy 2.

These are a few recent cool Doom joints though.

While I appreciate the effort that has to go into breaking down rapping in this way, I also think it's borderline absurd and a silly way to compare rappers. There are so many more interesting ways to discuss who is doper than by comparing numbers of words and syllables used.

I do appreciate you posting it though because it's interesting.

WTF does the race of a rapper's fan base have to do with who is the better MC?

:deadrose:


Never underestimate a dap fishing coli poster's propensity to use race baiting when they can't think of any other reasons of why their opinion is better than yours.

:ahh:

OK, I know I'm in an alternate reality now.

:hubie:

Supposed fans of hip-hop artistry, indelible lyricism, and creativity at it's finest are shytting on Muthafukkin Metal Face DOOM.

There are maybe 3 or 4 MCs period who could arguably get away with making such a claim as they're iller with the lyrics than Dumille.

I'll save you the suspense, Gibbs ain't one of them.




The fact that alot of the responses in this thread aren't even troll posts has got me straight :dwillhuh:


Once sold an inbred skinhead a nikka joke
Plus a brand new chrome smoker with the triggers broke
I thought I told him firing pins was separate
He'll find out later when he tries to go and rep it

:mjlol: DOOM can go on the most random tangents and still nail the multis.
