MF DOOM Streams BOOM (R.I.P.)

Rest in peace to the legendary rhymer MF DOOM. It was reported that he passed away back in October but his family wanted to mourn in private and give the public a proper notice.

Once announced on Dec 31st, MF DOOM’s catalog was streamed 8.8million times in the first 24 hours. In the first full week he saw a total of over 25 million streams and still going strong. That’s an increase of over 850%! This also sent his album ‘Madvillainy’ to certified silver, making it the London-born MC’s first album to do so.

We will miss this huge staple of the underground but let us use MF DOOM’s life and career as inspiration. He stuck to his craft and built a real ride or die fanbase. He stayed the course and created his unique work which is why we all loved him so much. RIP DOOM.
