Yes, I've heard Three 6 Mafia and Young Jeezy and Lil' Wayne, and the underground is keeping it so real. The intelligence of everyone involved keeps it from being Jeff Foxworthy-worthy, with the interludes and adlibs as rewindable as Doom's lyrics. But for what it attempts- which is basically a comedy record with no-joke skills- it exceeds expectations. It's not as revealing as Doom's other work, and Danger Mouse's big, Technicolor productions here are a little too trivial to be immortal. Elsewhere, Cee-Lo stops by to croon over the fuzz and slap of "Bizzy Box" Talib Kweli lightens up and raps simply about breakfast cereal and Ghostface recollects his own days behind the disguise on "The Mask", which certainly builds anticipation for a rumored GhostDoom project.ĭanger Doom won't change your life. The labyrinthine self-analyses of Madvillainy are mostly absent, but Doom remains sharp, focused on slaying a cavalcade of smartass cartoons.

The Adult Swim crew controls the vibe with ridiculous interludes (most notably, Master Shake contributes a series of escalatingly angry phone messages), but also inspires Doom to avoid the dourness that shades most of his other records. Food and his King Geedorah project, but never has the concept of an album had him sounding quite this chipper. Forcing all this farce onto one record could be disastrous, but instead it comes off like one big calamitous Saturday-morning public access show.ĭoom loves themes, as he's shown on Mmm. And then there's Adult Swim, the four-hour block of absurdimation aired late-nightly on the Cartoon Network, which slants toward bizarro and has a tendency for extreme sarcasm. Here he takes that penchant and amplifies it, conducting neck-snapping scores for long-lost Looney Tunes. Danger Mouse, as he's done with cartoon hooligans and mashing up G.O.A.T.s, displays a deft hand on the sequencer and a taste for whimsical soundtrack samples.
MF Doom still wears his villainous mask and rhymes stuff with "goonie-goo-goo" and "poop," along with brilliantly enigmatic self-deprecations and disses so cryptic their targets are oblivious. * Please note that estimated shipping dates may be subject to change as a result of manufacturing disruptions caused by COVID-19.By now, most fans know what to expect from the parties involved.

The Mouse and The Mask is a business I wish to create. The Mouse and the Mask is an album by Danger Doom, a collaboration between the hip hop artists Danger Mouse and MF Doom. Lex has a history of lavish packaging but this remains one of the lushest sleeves in the catalogue.

Originally only available in Europe in limited quantities, Lex have repressed the Deluxe double vinyl LP edition of ‘The Mouse & The Mask’ for 2019.
