Every MF DOOM Persona Explained
Ойын-сауық
Enigmatic rapper Daniel Dumile most commonly known as MF DOOM has collected a handful of different nicknames throughout his multidecade carrier. Unlike other aliases, however, Dumile takes it all one step further by attributing entirely different characters to each moniker. From Metal Fingers to Viktor Vaughn there is plenty to unpack in regards to the multitude of alias DOOM is known under.

Geedorah has always been my favorite DOOM persona, as a big kaiju fan. I love that he sampled the showa films so routinely under this persona.

My favourite is Viktor Vaughn. I love the weird mix of an awkward, nerdy kid flipping needing to be a gangster during his transition to becoming a true villain.

I always loved the King Geedorah persona the most out of any of DOOM's personas since I'm huge kaiju fan. Whenever I'd go over to grandma's apartment as a kid, there was this stack of DVDs that mostly consisted of 60's samurai flicks, Shaw Brothers/Golden Harvest martial arts films, and showa era japanese monster movies (my grandma is of japanese decent so those were the movies she gravetated to). I always loved it when DOOM would reference "nerdy" stuff in his lyrics or personas, whether it be Marvel cartoons, or a Star Trek reference, or a sample from an old kaiju film, that's what got me into his albums when I was in middle school, to which I'm still a fan today.

My fav character is prob Viktor Vaughn. While he's younger than DOOM, his record sounds a lot darker, aesthetic wise, than any MF DOOM album, the impression I have with that material is that it's fresh and unique. I prefer Madvillainy overall but Vik is a pretty well developed character thanks to Vaudeville Villain.

The fact that Vic diss DOOM on Fancy Clown put his music in another level. Keep it up with vids, dude. ALL CAPS for the MAN.
You ethier die a hero, or live long enough to see your self become the villain... Long live MF DOOM

he is an villan so that doesnt really make sense
Firstly, this is a great breakdown! Secondly, MF DOOM is one of the most important Hip Hop artists that's ever lived. His contribution to the culture will only be recognised in full, when in 20 years, we're still talking about him. Absolute legend. One of the best ever!
Love the Yoshikage Kira theme in the background
"V. Vaughn's the travelling vaudeville villain, And don't give a flying fxck who ain't not feeling him...' RIP 👑 D. Dumile
If I had to pick one it's gonna be the main villian, MF DOOM. I also find the idea of Vaughn intriguing because he's a character that admires and looks up to DOOM but has is own separate ideas and adventures.... We need a DOOM videogame.

Another appearance of MF DOOM as King Dumile on The Jade Amulet album is worth a listening and a shout out. A killer concept album I happily revisit beginning to end every few weeks.

There’s something so unusual about Doom’s creativity pertaining to his pseudonyms/identity’s. Appreciate your work man; it’s fans like you that got me into the legend in the first place.
A guy with the Facebook name Viktor Dumile replied to a group comment of mine the same night you posted this vid, which was one year to the day after his death was announced. I caught it immediately; freaked me out a bit. DOOM lives forever.
Youre a real one for putting this info out here, been listening to his music for months now and been wondering the story myself

Always love seeing new MF DOOM content also that thumbnail goes crazy🔥
aw man, amazing video! i love DOOM so much. in my opinion, his lyrical skill is unmatched and his sample choices are super cool. i love the way he crafted an entire universe of characters who each have their own styles and lore, and I really respect how he went through a lot of hard shit in his life and still came out as an icon. i always go looking 'round for his stuff in record/CD stores - i like looking for all his names and checking if any of his stuff is still in stock (usually not). love to all other fans out there! ❤
Great video! King Geedorah is probably my fav DOOM persona too since take me to your leader has alot of toho godzilla references and I just like king ghidorah!

Noticed you dropped the ball on the special herbs metal fingers section as to how all the covers represent his two favorite rolling papper you mentioned his version of zig zags but missed/overlooked ( or just didn't notice) his cosplay of the Bambu rolling papers man aswell they actually made Bible paper before manufacturing rolling papers hence the urban legend of the extra blank sheet in bibles being reserved as an emergency rolling paper. The special herbs cassettes is definitely an homage to a pack of Bambu rolling papers. [Bambú became a pop culture reference during the 1970s with the release of the Cheech and Chong Big Bambu album. Since then, it has had many other musical references in pop culture by artists such as The Notorious B.I.G., Method Man, A Tribe Called Quest, and others[citation needed]. Most recently Bambú appeared on the front cover of a book Pot Culture[citation needed] Dennis Wilson's second album was titled Bambu, after the rolling papers, and was released with Pacific Ocean Blue in 2008.]

Thank you so much for putting the time, energy and research into honoring the creative force that was Daniel Dumile. I myself am in a completely different world of music and art than hip hop, but as my channel name indicates, his work and vision have had a MASSIVE influence on how I approach my various crafts and just life in general. Keep up the great work.✌️
Everytime I watch one of you're videos I feel like I should be paying for them, good thing you have a patreon!.
I love ur videos, especially when it centered around DOOM. Thanks AE 🥰
Awesome vid. I look forward to all your future ones ^^
Thanks for getting me into MF DOOM, I had heard about him before but didn't listen until now. I didn't even know about all of these different personas so I clearly have more stuff to go through.

Also i love the commitment to all his MF DOOM content you can see rly see the love he has for making them with it being 80pct of his channel. Keep it up man.

Great breakdown! I tried to get DOOM on my last album The 38th Expansion but his management was charging an exorbitant amount for a feature. He sadly passed away about 5 months later.

Dude had DOOM, Melee, and Bulmas picture in one vid.. subbed 👍🏻
Felt like most people slept on doom his word play and the way he could make simple things actually mean something and articulate them is amazing LLDOOM🧌‼️
Dude you're amazing, easiest sub I've ever clicked. Thank you ♥️
Back in 1994, DOOM shopped around the Operation Doomsday demo, there’s a lot of demos that you can find of songs off the album, where he still sounds young like Zev. My favorites being the Gas Drawls, and Operation Greenbacks. Which is LIKELY why King Geedorah was listed, and mentioned in the Operation Doomsday album, he’d already had the moniker for quite some time.
I just want to say that I have never once took the time to leave a comment on a video and I can’t help but leave one here explaining how flabbergasted I am that there is such a deep history to DOOMS career. I love this video. Will watch again.
the only thing i knew about this guy was the "i'm here to see MF DOOM" memes, and now i'm hearing all the songs and watching videos explaining his whole life
Great break down!
I loved that you used Kira's theme truly goated
Very awesome man
