However, there was also another release. MM.. Food is DOOM's second 'solo' album. I say 'solo' because a chunk of the album his instrumental and one song doesn't even feature him on the mic.This isn't to say it's any less of an album though. In fact it's my favourite of DOOMs 'solo' releases. So the prospect of a skit-filled mid-section of a(n under) 50-minute LP may sound grim, but it's not so bad. It's also counterbalanced with some of the best songs MF DOOM has ever done -- "Potholderz,""Deep Fried Frenz,""One Beer,""Rapp Snitch Knishes," etc. There are also some great collaborations here. "Potholderz" was a Count Bass D song that DOOM hopped on after the fact, and "Rapp Snitch Knishes" features Mr. Fantastik who should have done more work. All four guests put in great performances though. Rabin, Nathan (29 November 2004). "MF Doom: Mm.. Food?". The A.V. Club. Archived from the original on 31 December 2020 . Retrieved 5 April 2018.

The playful melody, expertly flipped sample, and DOOM's intricate wordplay combine to create an unforgettable auditory experience. The B-side kind of just being a production playground, no rap, just chopped up samples that add to the albums theme, is a dope idea, but can feel like it stops the flow of the album. I appreciate it but most the time I just wish it went straight into Kon Karne, but on listens I do appreciate it, i’m glad it’s there.

And, while MM..FOOD is mostly the work of a mad scientist in his secret lair, a sprinkling of super-villain team ups with Count Bass D, Madlib, PNS of The Molemen, Stahhr, and Mr. Fantastik, all add to the album's overall flavor.The captivating opener Beef Rap sets the bar high, as DOOM's intricate rhyme schemes and food-inspired metaphors ignite the senses. The gritty production paired with DOOM's distinct flow lays the foundation for the album's lyrical brilliance.

Kon Karne' acts as a tibute to DOOM's late brother, Subroc. Each verse starts off with a simile which aligns with the 'Love is' sample, signifying the love he has for Subroc. He talks about how his raps aren't always appreciated because of how weird they are but knows that Subroc would be proud of him. Another favourite of mine, 'Rapp Snitch Knishes' features the mysterious 'Mr. Fantastik' who also appeared on 'Anti Matter' from Take Me to Your Leader. They talk about how ridiculous it is to rap about your crimes as it's almost like you're snitching on yourself. Mm..Food (stylized in all caps) is the fifth studio album by British-American rapper and producer MF Doom, released by Rhymesayers in November 2004. The album peaked at number 17 on Billboard 's Independent Albums chart, and number 9 on Heatseekers Albums chart. The title Mm..Food is an anagram of "MF Doom".

After re-launching his career in the late nineties with a string of singles on Fondle Em Records, leading up to the instant-classic Operation: Doomsday album, MF DOOM relentlessly pushed forward, always innovating along the way, building what has become one of the most storied and revered careers in the world of Hip Hop.

Every song on here is titled after some sort of edible substance and the word food is sampled more times than you can count. The production on this album is fantastic and is probably the most refined out of DOOM's career. The sources are obscure and he even samples Frank Zappa at one point.
