    Meaning is definitely there it's just presented in a different way than Aesop or Lupe lol

    DOOM is simple yet complex at the same time. It's why he's considered one of the best ever

    MF DOOM - Benzie Box
    MF DOOM - Operation Doomsday
    MF DOOM - All Caps

    Just a little taste

    He's like a smart comedian, he doesn't use a million complex words but he'll say something understandable and it'll have five different meanings

    Didn't think you meant personal when you said meaning, just thought you meant having a message

    Man always complaining but offers no solutions for example heres part of speech to recent high school graduates :
    You have just spent the last 12 years receiving one of the worst educations on Earth. You are at least four, five steps behind people in other countries that are younger than you,
