The news of MF DOOM’s unexpected death is still sinking in roughly two weeks after his wife made the announcement. On Saturday (January 16), the famous Metal Faced supervillain was a trending Twitter topic after fans learned DOOM’s music was included on President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris’ inauguration playlist.
The London-born MC never obtained citizenship upon moving to New York City as a baby and largely avoided leaving the country. It didn’t prove to be an issue until he decided to go on a European tour and was denied back into the United States in 2010. He told a news outlet at the time, “I’m done with the United States. It’s no big deal.”

But to DOOM’s American fans, it was a big deal and in 2017, one of his diehards started a Change.org petition to nudge then-President Barack Obama to naturalize DOOM as a U.S. citizen to no avail. But apparently, fans are still looking for someone to blame and Biden, who served as Vice President to Obama in 2010, was an easy target.
Curated by Issa Rae’s Raedio imprint, D-Nice and the Presidential Inaugural Committee, the “Biden + Harris 2021 Inauguration Playlist” includes DOOM’s 2004 single “Coffin Nails” from Special Herbs, Vols. 5 & 6 alongside tracks from Mac Miller, Kendrick Lamar, A Tribe Called Quest and more.
Check out some of the reactions below.
Fuck Osama Bin Biden. Hail DOOM.
Who makes these stupid playlists ? Does anybody really believe Joe Biden listens to MF Doom ? And who is the moron who downloads these playlists and be like “I wanna hear the same songs in the same order that a politican allegedly listens to”. GTFOH with this BS.
Like as if it was Biden single handly that did it, you guys understand they have agencies working under them to wipe the bum when ever needed?
Anyone who believes Biden had any input into DOOM being kept out of the country, or even knew who DOOM was is an idiot
How do you know?
The play list was a diverse masterpiece which will be played for years to come. Personally, at out local college campus in Portland, we can’t get enough. Our ANTIFA /BLM mastermind collective use it to amp up before we march the streets.
Next week we are marching to town all to protest student debt and racial inequality in large resturaunt chains. No longer should white names such as McDonald’s be allowed.

P.S I recently denounced my whiteness at a local rally. I have never felt so woke. I apologised to the black community by kissing their shoes.
Wamp Wamp incel get back to crying on reddit about why women won’t sleep with you hint it’s because your a weirdo loser who probs smells like cheese and toe jam and writes bs like this and thinks its humour lol
is being black really that bad over there? it is naïve to think every white man is a racist.
Little cry baby, we should be all protesting against these globalist fucks (not white people) dont ever expect to throw racism (control) out of the door if your going to be just as racist, that is so asinine I don’t even know where to begin, but I do also understand mind control and bro you got that shit bad
Fools. More pandering to the black community who keeps getting screwed over by the Democratic Party. Nothing to see here just another Monday at the office.
I mean, I get it why people are annoyed, but at the same time this man had several decades to get naturalized and didn’t do it. He probably wouldn’t have had too much of an issue.
