NehruvianDOOM A Bishop Neru Project

                                                      
There are very few rappers that get me as excited as MF DOOM, and there is nothing that DOOM does that gets me more excited than a collab with a mashed up name that makes shuffling his songs near impossible. From Madlib to Danger Mouse the man has a history of collabs that stand the test of time. DOOM steps behind the board this time, providing production and hook work, while letting the 17 year old Bishop Nehru take the lion’s share of verse duty on the album. While the lack of an actual DOOM verse is a shame, I’ll be damned if Nehru didn’t deliver two super solid verses over one of the dopest beats I have heard in awhile. If every song on the album has comparable quality to this one we are in for a treat when it drops on September 23rd. DOOM clearly has serious faith in the young Bishop Nehru, and if this song is any indication that faith is well placed. Not to mention the trippy artwork has to be one of the coolest album covers in years, or at least since Pinata.
