Finally Lex Records have announced 24 March 2009 as the revised release date for the new Doom (oops – my bad – I mean ‘DOOM’) LP Born Like This READ DOOM – Born Like This – LP review HERE. It is further rumoured on the net that this might not be the only release from DOOM a.k.a. the artist formerly known as ‘MF’ Doom, (or Daniel Dumile to his mum) this year. It’d be funny if the delay was all about the name change too. Imagine – you send your artwork off to the printers only to find out that the ‘MF’ hadn’t been dropped or it said ‘into’ instead of ‘like’. Christ – what a pain. It’d be enough to embitter you against the world for the remainder of your natural life and hide your scarred visage behind a metal mask if a former record label hadn’t already royally pissed you off by shelving your old school masterpiece because of – er – your front cover design.
Born Like This a.k.a the LP formerly known as Born Into This sees production duties mainly shared between DOOM and Jake One and features guests that include Raekwon and Ghostface. Tracklist below. Check back here for a review soon…
