Even though the man puts down projects like I put down 24-packs, for some reason nobody bothered to see what hip-hop mastermind (MF) DOOM has been up to lately. But according to Brooklyn emcee Masta Ace’s Twitter account, he and DOOM have been finalizing a new collaboration album for “4ever.” According to HipHopDX, the joint project is called MA DOOM, and the resultant album is entitled Son of Yvonne. Man, don’t you just love how DOOM’s name makes every collaboration sound instantly badass?
Apparently, DOOM doesn’t provide any verses on the new album, though he does handle all of the beats. Yesterday, Masta Ace confirmed that he “handed in” the project, but there’s no sign yet of label or release dates. So… yeah, I got nothing else. Oh! But, in the mean time, Masta Ace also announced recently that he’ll be releasing a 10th anniversary reissue of Disposable Arts that will feature re-recorded album tracks with a full live band! Although, there’s actually no release date set for that either. Fuck. So… everybody sit by your computer hitting the refresh button for the next few weeks. And when you find out what the deal is with these projects, write up a good story and slap my name on it. Sound good? I’m going to get a 24-pack.
