I think the prime evidence of Doom’s genius is how in every line, every word plays an important role. He does not write words haphazardly, every single word has multiple meanings and interpretations and always complement each other. That’s a skill rarely found in literature and to be able not just to write like this but to rhyme the way that he did is just mind blowing. The greatest of all time, no doubt. Rest In Peace MF DOOM.
I heard the line "exercise index. Won't need no bowflex" a layer deeper than you mentioned.) He has an "exercise index" a comprehensive list of exercises (like a bowflex claims to) but he still doesn't need it because he exercises his index (pulls triggers) and because of that doesn't need a bowflex(which was know for it's "pulling" exercises.) He also exercises his index ( or a list of words) so he doesn't need to physically workout because his words are his weapons.
@@mfhero5295 Late but wetjer or not MF DOOM meant all that doesnt really matter(allthough probably did), what matters is how it can be interpreted. Accidental symbolism, metaphor, etc.. are still valid when analyzing literature, the same for goes rap
I really like the fact that Fritos don't have cheese fresh out the bag which makes it seem like he fucked up and didn't think about it when he was rhyming it with the other chips, which inherently would have been a slip of the tongue, gives your brain just enough time to process that error and then follow it with a bar that references slipping.
Dude, this breakdown is insane. I've listened to this album (and by extension this song) dozens and dozens and dozens of times and I figured I'd had at LEAST accordion figured out lyrically but wow, your analysis is so so thorough. Can't believe you don't have more views on this!
@8:00 also for animals lovers that line "Just keep ya eye out , like, "aye, aye, captain" probably wasn't meant to reference the animal the Aye-aye which if you have seen it its eyes are bulging out of its head. So its also another meaning to that lyric that makes sense lol.
bro this album is the best all time for me, the beat is untouchable, the flow and rhymes is literally impossible to repeat, and the meaning of every single fucking line is outstanding literally know one has touched this type of rapping even kendrick, eminem or fucking kanye bro.
The slip like Freudian line is also referring to him saying "Fritos" at the end. Cheetos and Doritos have cheese, but not Fritos, therefore the slip is referring to him using the wrong chip as an example
Another thing is the way it's written in lyrics and the way it's pronounced commonly in pirate speak would be missing out the literal letter I. DOOM was just on another level entirely when it comes to abstract lyricism what other people have 4-5 interpretations of one line
Very happy you got the channel up and running again. Please upload the long video breakdowns of Beef Rap and Rhinestone Cowboy. Have watched both multiple times always coming back to them. Much love, best breakdowns out there.
The first line of this song just hits me you so hard. I’m constantly paranoid about how I have only so much time and that I want to be able to live it to the fullest until it’s over.
Still one of my favorites!! Just rewatched and realized you missed the “brings his own needles” and “slip like freudian” … like slip mats a dj uses when they bring their own needles. ANOTHER LAYER 🤯
"when he at the mic you don't go next" I always felt he skipped the first beat as to interrupt someone who would start their verse on that first beat. As if he caught you going next after him.
Great commentary. I may or may not be able to add something: 'Playing yourself like accordion' - is DOOM not also referencing LL COOL J on the EPMD song 'Rampage' ('playing MCs like an old accordion') - if so, I'm sure it's as tribute/respect LL.
I think you missed something with the "Get more cheese than doritos, cheetos, or fritos" line. To me it always read/sounded to me that him saying "fritos" WAS supposed to be a freudien slip(due to fritos not really being predominantly cheese). Like Doom was hungry in the booth and accidentally said "fritos", and even so hes such a supernaturally talented rapper, that even his feudien slip managed to complete the rhyme.
ive also always thought It had something to do with the how although these chips are covered in a 'cheese' topping its actually fake cheese, so they money or 'cheese' hes getting isn't really as much as it seems. aged like fine wine cuz you fast forward to today and social media has rapper flexing fake money when they actually broke
@@connorhillis7135”Can they testify from in the spirit” has greater meaning to me from your view of the cheese bars. Amazing insight to your view, DOOM is gone but we continue to study his lyrics like scripture. RIP DOOM best MC with no chain you ever heard 🙏🏾
Do more of these!!!! Even after listening to this song what feels like a million times, DOOM surprised me. Loved the comment on how you wouldn't hold two swords, or attention and the mic, lightly. Thanks.
you made me realize that when he is talking about wack rappers touching the mics they leave disease(aids) on it. that's why he bring his own needles(mics). he also talks about this brand of wack rappers only using rap as an ends to a means of getting wealthy. a fucked type of message sent to the fiends(aspiring rappers who want to become wealthy) which leads him to saying, him bringing his own needles(mics/original content) leads him to more cheese(money) because the true way to success in the rap game is originality. so fucking deep
Also commenting for the algorithm.this is a great channel wish you luck on this On this new channel. Thanks for making these videos. They're extremely well made
Hi late to the video but love it! Wanted to suggest “nothing but the lick like two broads” could be a double entendre to lesbians and broadswords which would tie in to the last line of the bar “and he hold the mic and your attention like two swords”
How much for you to move to Minnesota and be my friend and teach me all about hip hop? It does not get hot! Jokes aside, as a foreigner I feel compelled towards hip hop but its hard, since most of the mainstream stuff is just gangsta or highly pretentious stuff and ppl dont have much to offer on why this or that rapper is good and why. I actually was raised with Reggaeton (PR) and we had a nice cultural exchange going on with the east coast side on which I was exposed. Through the grinder in foreign lands, I find time to enjoy and expand my musical knowledge and found MF Doom by accident. One thing led to an Absurd Experience and ended up here by recommendation. Keep it up, spread the gospel!
Mix Master I C E also refers to Mix Master Ice, who was UTFO's DJ. In their video "Leader of the Pack," Mix Master Ice is dressed as a ninja, cuttin' up (scratching) records: ruclips.net/video/0KE3-IyLsg8/видео.html
"thats why he bring his own needles" connects to the bar about aids as well a little morbid but makes sense, u could say doom brings his own approach to rap so as not to catch the diseases (obsession with money and fame) other rappers getting from sharing needles (using the same tired rap cliches)
5:30 "it's Y2G stee (steeze or style), twice to three fold." i.e. his style is from the year 4000 or 6000. he's way ahead of everyone else. he sold scrolls -- check out the beginning of the kmd video for peachfuzz. this relates to information about the 5 percenter sect of islam. basically selling pamphlets and other info on the street.
Hey. I remember your breakdown of Outkast Aquemini. I tried to find the video and your channel for such a long time and now finally I found your channel again. Why was the aquemini video removed?

yeah, there's literally no filler. one of the best writers/poets hip hop has ever seen

It probably is not that deep
Honestly... It's DEEPER.
@@mfhero5295no, it’s definitely THAT deep. This guy didn’t care about impressing us.
He did what he did because it’s what he did.
@@mfhero5295 Late but wetjer or not MF DOOM meant all that doesnt really matter(allthough probably did), what matters is how it can be interpreted. Accidental symbolism, metaphor, etc.. are still valid when analyzing literature, the same for goes rap
It’s honestly overwhelming even reading into the complexity of his writing.
Oh my god I just realized when he says two broads he means 2 broad swords
RIP DOOM, November never came for the villain but his music will last forever.
"is he still a fly guy clappin if nobody ain't hear it? And can they testify from in the spirit?" yes. Yes indeed he is and they can

Yeah man any lyrical mistake that sounds too good to change you can just acknowledge it in the next bar and it seems deliberate and it works
YES! I'm so glad this one is back! This is the first breakdown I watched that introduced me to Lyricology 101, thanks Dre
I thought it was gone, but I FOUND IT! Right on time.
@@thelyricologist5606 hey do you have other ART videos? I wanted to rewatch them but sadly, they are deleted

Ok I can never be this good..am out 🥱🏃♂️
Yeah I give up lol. Rhyming like this is hard enough... Let alone everything else going on
wooooowwwww i finally get it...it's finally making sense
DOOM: Master Of Semicolon
bro this album is the best all time for me, the beat is untouchable, the flow and rhymes is literally impossible to repeat, and the meaning of every single fucking line is outstanding literally know one has touched this type of rapping even kendrick, eminem or fucking kanye bro.
This is so dope, came from an absurd existence's vid
The slip like Freudian line is also referring to him saying "Fritos" at the end. Cheetos and Doritos have cheese, but not Fritos, therefore the slip is referring to him using the wrong chip as an example
I think "the clock tick faster" line refers to people coming to kill him
Another thing is the way it's written in lyrics and the way it's pronounced commonly in pirate speak would be missing out the literal letter I. DOOM was just on another level entirely when it comes to abstract lyricism what other people have 4-5 interpretations of one line
Please do more breakdowns of MF DOOM
U THA MAN
I still have no idea what a slick blaster is.
Very happy you got the channel up and running again. Please upload the long video breakdowns of Beef Rap and Rhinestone Cowboy. Have watched both multiple times always coming back to them. Much love, best breakdowns out there.
Ive started listening to DOOM like 2 months ago and I think this kind helped me understand his music
The first line of this song just hits me you so hard. I’m constantly paranoid about how I have only so much time and that I want to be able to live it to the fullest until it’s over.
Still one of my favorites!! Just rewatched and realized you missed the “brings his own needles” and “slip like freudian” … like slip mats a dj uses when they bring their own needles. ANOTHER LAYER 🤯
Yooo sorry to hear about your account back here again to support!
Underated content man. Hope to see more MF DOOM videos, was definitely an entertaining and fun watch.
"when he at the mic you don't go next" I always felt he skipped the first beat as to interrupt someone who would start their verse on that first beat. As if he caught you going next after him.
This is the greatest lyrical breakdown I’ve ever seen. I’m completely nerding out on his lyrics. DOOM is genuinely a genius 🤯
Thanks bro. DOOM is a Master. A true master.
Love your expedition on WISDOOM
The death of this man hit me hard!
"stee" as in "you know my steez" as in "style"
The James Joyce of rap artists
Great breakdown but dont play yourself thinking you can catch it all. DOOM is a never ending listening party.
We need more of doom❤❤
Commenting for the algorithm. Peace!
An absurd Existence sent me here, not dissapointed, great stuff!
Shout out to that brilliant man! Much love to him.

Plus Fritos is popularly known as the chips to be last eaten in the mix. Man you might be right
Bro mind was blown, it makes much sense. Damn MF DOOM is a frkn Demigod
Mindblown

R.I.P. DOOM

No words wasted!! 🔥🔥
Death also “Knocks” at the door so it could have another meaning
I come back to this a lot, I'm shocked it doesn't got more views this is 💯✒️
It's all good. The realest ones catch the video. You're a real one.
ayy I'm so glad to find this channel again! I wish you the best bro
keep cracking those bars !
I'm on it fam. More to come.
Thank you for this , really trying to understand MF DOOM
Good GOD this song is intricate
and the layers will continue to unravel as you continue to listen. 😆
you made me realize that when he is talking about wack rappers touching the mics they leave disease(aids) on it. that's why he bring his own needles(mics). he also talks about this brand of wack rappers only using rap as an ends to a means of getting wealthy. a fucked type of message sent to the fiends(aspiring rappers who want to become wealthy) which leads him to saying, him bringing his own needles(mics/original content) leads him to more cheese(money) because the true way to success in the rap game is originality. so fucking deep
LOVE THIS!!! Also Mixmaster Ice was the DJ for UTFO...the group that made Roxanne,Roxanne in the 80s.
Lil overthinking my guy. 99% tho, pretty much nailed it.. fun to think about for sure. Rip all 🧢's.
You HAVE to overthink DOOM... On God. That man's a rapping Hadron Collider.
Love how the only filler is bro yappin bout the channel all love tho
The index finger is also the finger you hold a pen with.
Also commenting for the algorithm.this is a great channel wish you luck on this On this new channel. Thanks for making these videos. They're extremely well made
At 6:19 you missed that he also used the three G’s but replaced god for glitter
That's brilliant. Totally missed that.
Hi late to the video but love it! Wanted to suggest “nothing but the lick like two broads” could be a double entendre to lesbians and broadswords which would tie in to the last line of the bar “and he hold the mic and your attention like two swords”
bro ive been looking for u forever
You promised more break downs from every album, I think it’s time :)
i always thought the two swords bar is like if someone pointed two swords at you, you would pay attention 💀
The layers continue to expand. That's the power of DOOM for ya.
