MF DOOM's Widow Posts Tribute, Thanks Fans on the 2nd Anniversary of His Passing

MF DOOM'S widow, Jasmine Dumile, posted a personal and heartfelt tribute to him on his IG on the second anniversary of his death (10/31). Along with a picture of his mask and a cake that read "We Miss U Old Dad'" she wrote, "Begin all things by giving thanks to THE ALL."

She continued, "Today we celebrate DOOMSDAY for all those who have gone before us. I now understand what Daniel was going through after his brother Raheem passed. It's an ache that is so deep that it doesn't go away. I cry when I think of him and when I hear his music. It is tears of joy of having the pleasure to have been with the man whom many call DOOM, we call him Old Dad. You will always be missed." She also thanked the fans of MF DOOM for their continued love and support."

Doom will be the subject of an upcoming biography written by veteran music journalist S.H. Fernando Jr. The Chronicles of Doom: Unraveling Rap’s Masked Iconoclast is “a sweeping and definitive biography” that will “recount the rise, fall, redemption and untimely demise of one of Hip Hop’s most enigmatic and influential figures” according to a press release.

Fernando Jr.’s other works include the Wu-Tang Clan biography From the Streets of Shaolin: The Wu-Tang Saga, which arrived last August, as well as 1994’s The New Beats: Exploring the Music, Culture, and Attitudes of Hip Hop. Astra House’s senior editor Danny Vazquez said he “could not be more excited” to publish The Chronicles of Doom.
