MF Doom

I think the most disappointing moment of researching music is when I found out the MF in MF Doom stood for "Metal Face/Fingers", not "Mother F*cking".

Is that it? Darn, i thought the same thing.

You guys find the moniker 'Mother Fucking Doom' more interesting than 'Metal Face Doom' or 'Metal Fingers Doom'?
Grow up.

Metal face has no subtlety and metal fingers is unfounded. Motherfucking? Who can argue with that? It's got menace, too.

Aren't these some of the qualities that make Doom great?
'Motherfucking' is boring and that's one thing that Doom is not. He's also not very menacing.

I'd say a lot of doom's wit is subtle, he's isn't the most obvious lyricist for sure.

How is metal fingers unfounded? He was a respected producer before launching his solo rap career.

You really think a guy who's too antisocial to perform at his own shows is going by a "mother****ing" moniker? He's not omnipresent, he's the madvillian.

Maybe it's "Mighty Flabby" Doom?

Weird, "mother f*cking" doom never even crossed my mind.

Milton Friedman Doom?
