MF Doom

Known as MF Doom or simply Doom, Daniel Dumile was a British-American rapper and record producer who died at age 49 in October. In the early 2000s, Daniel became famous for his underground hip-hop as well as his clever wordplay, and of course, his metal masks that created his onstage “supervillain” persona everyone knew and loved. After his passing, Variety wrote about him, saying he was one of the scene’s “most celebrated, unpredictable and enigmatic figures.”
