Another in my line of mash-ups in honor of the metal-faced villain, DOOM.
I had actually planned this mash-up as early as my Nujabes series. I had been working with this and a Nujabes beat, when I realized how well it would work with this melancholy, beautiful instrumental. I actually didn't need to do much for this aside from touch-up, and extend the beat for the third verse.
This was made using DOOM's "Camphor" and Tupac's "Thugz Mansion".
Oddisee is one of the many up-and-coming beatmakers in this new wave of production whose ability and raw talent is truly jaw-dropping. Just skip over Asher Roth's verse. Yuck. Arby Wan Kenobi
