@@johnbug1334 Here is an article that explains the tracks lineage.. I had never heard the preexisting Doom verses even though I'm a big Herbaliser fan..

A perfectly toasted pb&j, where the pb melts, getting absorbed by the bread, jelly providing exactly enough moisture to make milk optional, but it's all about the cream after all.
Rob Viktum did this beat first. He has a whole album dedicated to the Cambodian struggle. Omegah Red took the beat, the MF Doom verse, RZA verse (from different songs) and put it together. Just like what Drake does. Intellectual property is a iffy thing when it comes to samples like this. Omegah Red could just rip off the beat and chalk it up to "Hey I guess we both sampled the same song," knowing damn well he wasn't struck by inspiration when he happened to hear an obscure Cambodian song out of nowhere.
The actual song is on Spotify but it doesn't have RZA or MF Doom on it. This is a rip with raps thrown on top of someone else's beat. They timed the rhymes pretty well to the beat at least
eurghh ain't this just the shit?? RZA goes so hard and the beat is just out of this world, gives me chills. One of the best tracks ever, fan made or not.
And think of this for a sec... He was the mask. MF DOOM is the mask. The mask dies in 2020. The year of the mask. And check this as he died on Halloween, which is known for masks. Also on the 31st of the month, for his wife to release his death to the public 2 months later on the 31st of the month on the last day of the "Year Of The Mask".

None I guess, I believe the vocals are from two seperate songs. I know Doom's lyrics come from a song by The Herbaliser (It Ain't Nuttin). But I wouldn't be surprised if RZA read Sun Tzu. :)
I was in the 4th grade when I first saw the group KMD. This dope mc went by the name Zev Love X and years later became MF DOOM. DOOM is not dead, his ears just got tired of listening to the wack ass rap that's playing these days. DOOM went to teach GOD how to flow like a true MC, and show him what real hip hop is supposed to sound like. For those that don't know, MF DOOM is spelled with all CAPS.
keep the bong lightin straight through the song writin, the Supervillain AKA the thong bitin, thats inviting all to the ricitin thats dope and raw, hoping all yall come in peace and its open bar Fuck DOOM can rhyme
I did not monetize this video, if you see Ads n shit. Get Adblocker. TH-cam is trying to get free money.
that's fucked, I get an ad Every time I listen to it
thanks for the heads up homie
I think all art should be free
Ad Dominion How is DOOM supposed to make money if he gives stuff out for free?
Alec Haynes do you really think youtube would put ads on this video only to give the money to DOOM?
Yes, Metal Face Finster plays with the dirty money; all youtube money is dirty, and youtube is eventually going to have porn.
Who’s here after finding out DOOM passed? RIP TO A LEGEND.
That hurt so much to read. RIP to this legend
always sad to see

Rip to an icon

RZA is so far beyond dope rhymes at this point-he's a damn historian and philosopher.
on my soul i cried during DOOM's verse he reminded me why he'll always be my absolute favourite
Never get tired of listening to this. A masterpiece.
REST IN PARADISE DOOM. A TRUE LEGEND LOST TODAY
He actually died two months ago but we all just found out today :( makes the news hit even harder
Rest in Peace❤️Incredible artist. The music will live on.

Didn't know this existed. MF & RZA. Mind blown.
Some Dope shit right,a masterpiece
@@danielhughes8593 it isnt them, it is a fan made song
@@carolusrex5213 not going to start a debate here but when did he say it wasnt a fan remix
RZA spits like a king.
Because he's a music Legend
DOOM was probably the one person to dislike this
Why?
cuz hes the god damn super villain thats why
Christian Cost So he dislikes his own stuff?
what is so hard to understand about the theory?...
Christian Cost What theory?
Bobby digital and doom. Can you beat it?? 2 of the greatest musicians of all time
Dis track features Rzarector.

such a chill Beat i love this song
this aint a real collabo, its an old RZA verse from The night the Earth cried.
Their real collabo is Bio Chemical Equation. I think
Yeah its biochemical equation, from wutang meets the indie culture or something to the same effect
RIP To the most powerful Villain MF DOOM
coming back because this was the song that got me into DOOM... RIP
Was listening to the Ecstasy of Gold and this was 'Recommended for Me" lol don't know how those relate but still, Glad I ended up here! haha
Tom H make sure to check out a lot of the different MF DOOM songs, like one beer, doomsday, crosshairs, Hoe cakes, and find a lot other more! :)
RZA sounds like Jay-z with a deeper voice
Jay-Z sounds like RZA with a higher voice. Sorry- couldn't resist. :)
t gal Good call
Thanks for taking it well.
Bridge Wilson No he doesn't
wunas96 Agreed. They sound nothing alike.
Doom smashed it if you ask me
Rest In Paradise MF DOOM
yo i know im late as shit to hear this, but i love it. any recommendations on songs with a similar vibe/beat/flow? thanks!

Check out: I know the feeling by shag, and tell me what you think.
Seriously someone give me an instrumental track as beautiful as this? Its just astounding I can't get over it.
It's addictively soothing to hear isn't.
Jesse Makua Rob Viktum - 14-7-1975
literally found this yesterday and already listened 50 times, it's just sublime!
Check out Nujabes
Jesse Makua look up Caleb belkin, his album “discography” it’s the last track.

Just found out the news, RIP DOOM. To this day had some of the hardest lyrics.
Love the both of these guys. When they rap I listen.
original track which is sampled here is called Kaun komsott by ros sereysothea
The actual song is on Spotify but it doesn't have RZA or MF Doom on it. This is a rip with raps thrown on top of someone else's beat. They timed the rhymes pretty well to the beat at least
Yall should listen to Fayçal, a french rapper who made a song called "29.5" with the same instrumental, great lyrics even if you can't understand
+Jo Tupac scred conex
eurghh ain't this just the shit?? RZA goes so hard and the beat is just out of this world, gives me chills. One of the best tracks ever, fan made or not.
The mix is great, but I have to give the original beat some credit. Kon Komsot by Ros Sereysothea song from 70s.

That beat ! Where can I download this song ?
{Verse 1: MF DOOM}
It ain't nothing like a fistfull a cash or a bliss fulla the hash
That twist like a mustache, from end to end, spread it like a rash
From talking through your walkman or at your disco bash
Gimme the Timbs Rumplestiltskin brown
A metal face mask with a built in frown
A mic to tilt down, a hundred thousand pounds
And see how kilt sound like spilt milk clown
Cocoa butter on very ashy day fam
With Ray-Bans out on the islands of Cayman
Or i'll break it down for the layman
Bain de Soliel, for that St. Tropez tan
A can a ole gold too cold to hold, slow ya roll
Keep on moving like Soul II Soul, hold the dough
Like a fool who stole pity y'all
From tryna go up against city hall titty bar
The black mic is like a red violin
Ok, everybody back to the lab, try again
Bloody rap game like leviathan
Leave a bad taste, killin my high like niacin
Stop kiddin middlemen need Ritalin
Hit me with the full tin of gin and im a kid again
Keep the bong lightin straight through the song writin
The Supervillain AKA the thong bitin, thats inviting all
To the recitin thats dope and raw
Hoping all yall come in peace and its open bar
Tear the roof off this bumba rasclaat
By the end of the night spazz like shazbot
Spilt a shot made the pen lines runny
An ill plot that's ten times Ben Stein money, funny
How he rips the scripts with a straight face
With more rhymes than is lines in ya database
Placing rappers in endangerment, who's reckless
With this food for thought sorta like breakfast
You could mark it off as wreck on the checklist
Wear gold fronts, can't afford no necklace
Shit, that there, could go to help them daycares
Somebody say yeahh.. (yeahhh!)
Pay ya fares,... give the Herbalizers his shares
And y'all could pay DOOM in beers; cheers!
{Verse 2: RZA}
I came to the shores of America disguised as a peddler
The alpha and omega and the home of the beggars, the black settlers
Who been beaten, raped, lynched, robbed and stoned
And caused to roam the earth in service cause they couldn't maintain at
Home
This dates back to 1555
When they captured the first tribe of men
And piled them in a pen
Fifty feet high
They took em all on a 9000 mile ride
And landed on the shore of a place they never seen before
But read about this inside the ancient books of war
Bonded in stainless steel, stripped of their language
Still survived the anguish of slavery but still remained nameless
Separated to portions and tricked by John Haughty Hawkins
And sold on the auction, taught birth control and abortion
Rulers of the first part became slaves of the worst part
The devils cursed God and reversed God
And turned God into dog and made people search hard
No relief came til' the prophet of W.D. Fard
To a trauma, dropped our mommas off in Bahamas and Barbados
Tobagos, separated us from slave boats
Made our own brothers hate us
From Virgin Isle to Jamaica
Trinidad, Honduras, Haiti, Grenada
Bermuda to Cayman, mental enslavement
You black gods become awaken
what books of War are they specifically talking about, Sun Tzu the art of war? Niccolo Machiavelli The Prince? On War?
None I guess, I believe the vocals are from two seperate songs. I know Doom's lyrics come from a song by The Herbaliser (It Ain't Nuttin). But I wouldn't be surprised if RZA read Sun Tzu. :)
Gijs Houbregs RZA verse is from The Night the Earth Cried by Gravediggaz.
Is Mr Fantastik RZA? They sound very similar
I WAS TODAY YEARS OLD WHEN I FOUND OUT THIS AIN'T EVEN A REAL MF DOOM SONG. IT'S A FAN MADE SONG. RIP TO A REAL 1

Rip my dude! Got me thru my late teen age years!
