MF Doom to record LP with Wu-Tang’s Ghostface

MF DoomMF Doom, known best for wrecking mics while rocking a chrome-alloy mask, is preparing to work with equally eccentric rapper Ghostface.

The duo discuss their upcoming collaborative album, tentatively titled Swift & Changeable, in the latest issue of Mass Appeal.

“Starks is an ill dude,” Doom said in the interview. “Something about his flows and the fact that he rocked a mask too was something that was to be admired. To have the daring to do that.” The Wally Champ returned the compliment. “About Doom? He can rhyme, he just got a good ear for music and he can rhyme well too,” said Ghost. “He’s a great artist. He’s like me in a way, very creative.”

To Doom and Ghost fans, the collabo seemed almost inevitable as the two MCs have for years expressed a shared fascination with hip-hop, Marvel comic books, and 1970s soul samples. According to sources, the album may hit stores as early as spring 2006.

In related news, Doom is hitting the road alongside rapper/producer Count Bass D and John Robinson (formerly Lil Sci of Scienz Of Life). Tour dates are as follows:

Dec. 5 – Austin, TX (La Zona Rosa)
Dec. 6 – Boulder, CO (Fox Theatre)
Dec. 7 – Los Angeles, CA (El Rey Theater)
Dec. 8 – San Francisco, CA (The Independent)
Dec. 9 – San Francisco, CA (The Independent)
Dec. 11 – Chicago, IL (Abbey Pub)
Dec. 12 – Seattle, WA (Chop Suey)
Dec. 13 – Seattle, WA (Chop Suey)

Doom is easily hip-hop's savior. To bad hip hop is already dead.

Doom is near-brilliant producer, but i can do without his overly verbose flows and muddled metaphorical noodling. If doom stays behind the synths and wheels of steel and ghost delivers the same abstract mile-a-minute flow that made supreme clientele such a banger, this could be something to watch out for. Also -- who is still sleeping on doom? his fanbase has shifted from the m.i.c days, for sure... The man is a name-dropper in white suburban homes everywhere after the dangerdoom album. He's become the rapper for heads who don't like rap... His new material is too safe for the street, heady enough to please the aimchair philosopher (read: stoner) and too playful to be taken seriously. Mf grimm is the real unsung hero, to be sure.
